Pics do look awesome. I have a question about your spoiler.
I am thinking of getting one like yours ans see yours is painted black.

Did you ever consider painting to match the car (Blue for you, Pewter Silver for me)? I am on the fence.

Coupe is looking real good Love your exhaust setup . . .might have to pick me up some supersprint headers and some sort of pulley for my 1.8

Guess you really want a Veyron by how many pics you posted of em

I prefer the black. I had it painted Obsidian black, which is a black w/ gold metallic. It matches up with the rest of the trim on the back which is already black.

Hey question about your spoiler, you said you had gotten it painted in black, did it match up with the black on the coupe hatch pretty close? Or can you notice a difference between the two shades?
I'm considering getting one, probably in black, but I want it to look as seamless as possible.

Thanks!

Grill is 2005 grill.
Order from dealer.
I had the spoiler painted Obsidian black which is a stock MB color,
a metallic black, looks killer in the sun!

Yah I know the dealer will have it but I'm hoping to get it somewhere else cheaper! But we'll see!

So.. to clarify, obsidian black is the exact color of the coupe hatch then??

No. the hatch is just plain black, but the obsidian looks baddass IMHO.
Matches nicely.
I bought my grill from parts.com
for like 120.
Don't know if they ship to Canada.
You have to modify it to get it to fit, but that can be done with a hacksaw or
dremel tool. You have to shave some bits down the mounting points, not the
visible parts.

And if you have a large chunk of Parmesan you can grate it !

I don't know where you can buiy the spoiler anymore.
It's a Renntech knock off.

I went back to stock rims,
couldn't rotate the tires, and it was getting toooo expensive replacing the rears every 5-10K miles.
I'm going to get some 20mm spacers to bring the wheels out.

Love that color. Not a fan of the coupes at all but gotta admit that's a beautiful car.
