Default Here we go....

"Touchdown Houston! The eagle has landed."

Rapid Blue (Or any other color you happen to like for that matter)
Spoiler delete
Coded intakes
Coded roof edging
20% tint on windows and headlamps
20"/21" custom gloss black wheels
Yellow calipers
Black tips

Only now is the C8 ready for the streets.

Miss me completely with the confused, busy, goofy, broken line looks the factory and their complicit dealers try to pawn off on you. If you happen to pull up to a Ferrari and you want to hold your head high and look the driver in the eye...This is how.

All those fins, black and carbon press on's....lose em....Thats smallcock - maybe I can impress the girls - stuff. They call em flashy peacocks for a reason...remember that.

This is pure perfection right here. The way the car was meant to look.

Appears to be a CGI? Carbon Ceramic brakes look cool, but front license plate bracket not so much.

Was having a hard time and finally figured out the wheels are edited in and the boomerang is colored differently, almost thought it was out of Forza for a second.
Do yellow calipers, red and blue are not complimentary. If you want I can also do the photoshopping if you want more ideas done. Let me know!

You know what they say about opinions. Your certainly entitled to your opinion, but don't expect me to agree with it.

Not perfect for me, but if you’re happy, that’s what matters.
