    Default Just bought my RR, need your suggestions.

    Just buying my RR today, best feeling ever. Mods will start as soon as she's in my driveway. So you can start visualizing: stock, white on ivory interior 2006 RR supercharged.

    I know this video is 2010 look-alike, but I plan to mod mine to look 100% identical except for the front and wheels only.





    Opinions needed on:
    -Already have 24" Forgiato Otto (havent decided between all gloss black OR all satin / semi-gloss black?)
    -Brake calipers (havent decided between fluorescent/neon yellow like in the video, or blue, like this?)
    -----OR I was thinking about a combo: blue on one side of the car, fluorescent yellow on the other?)


    As of now, I plan on all 4 fluorescent yellow brake calipers (like video) and semi-gloss black wheels.

    Congrats on the new ride.

    I'd go with red for the calipers. Yellow is a bit over the top, and blue is too indicative of a Rotora BBK.

    Hey there!

    Congrats on your new car! I highly suggest going with Red with your calipers... It just looks so much better!

    I'm leaning more and more towards red too. Just came from red calipers on my Corvette, wanted to try something different. Blue looks cool in my head, but after photoshopping it I didn't like it. Yellow is already looking kind of ostentatious. Pulling the trigger at the end of this week when it's delivered. Thanks guys

    Thoughts on wheels?

    Are semi-gloss and satin basically the same?
    I'm between those and glossy.
    Definitely not doing matte.

    Yeeee Buddy! ahaha Thanks Raw, We Try

    As far as the wheels go, What i think would be a good look would be a satin face with a gloss lip... That would really pop as the wheel spokes are very think on the Forgioto's...

    Instead of starting a new thread, I'll just accumulate all my questions in here.

    I'm looking to get my roof wrapped in gloss black. I've got two quotes, one for $400, one for $425. It has a sunroof. Are these reasonable quotes? I thought it would be cheaper.

    I was quoted $250 for matte black 3m (roof)

    Those are reasonable quotes, some will do it cheaper. The Rover roof is large and has lots of grooves up there.

    Check out the headlight/taillight mods we do! You can ship yours out to us and get it shipped back looking insane! We have been doing almost a set a week now!
