Thoughts On My Satin Pearl White E70

stealth e70 · 05-09-2012, 12:55 PM

Full build up in the gallery. ADV1's on the way.

Sadly these photos don't truly capture the depth and complexity of the finish. Should be portrayed a bit better when we do a proper photo shoot after the wheels arrive...

Looks great, to be super critical the rear hitch could have been done a little cleaner. Looks like a factory install with trim piece that isnt really needed.

Nonetheless, looks great. I luv the painted look, but i dont like how it looks once it gets pitted with rock chips. U got a body shop so i guess ur laughing... no issue for u.

Looks great man. What ADV's did u go with?

Stunning...

I think it looks better with the wheels you have now... you did spend some time painting them. So far, love everything except the tail light tints. Carry on.

That is Beautiful. What color code is that? Or what vehicle? Or did you custom mix it?

Thanks. They are called "5.0 Deep Spec SL". You won't find them on the site because as far as I know mine will be the only set like it so far. Basically its a deep concave 3-piece with a stepped outer lip like a track spec and super light machining. Can't wait.

It's sort of a custom mix, started with a Lambo base and custom made the pearl coat.
