Continuing my Lamborghini inspired G35.

Since I have now seen anywhere from 3-4 Yellow G35s on this site rocking essentially the same bodykit as myself, I've decided to throw out my future idea for my car as to prevent anyone else from claiming to be the first...

I highly doubt anyone would ever go this route, but for the sake of insuring against it, here goes.

Inspired again by a Lamborghini, this time a Gallardo as opposed to a Murcielago, my future paint scheme will retain the original yellow I have but a majority of it will be covered in a flat/satin black.





To continue the GT3 theme, the car will rock a custom widebody kit as well as full roll cage, air jacks, bench wing, and a stroked, NA engine in hopes of hitting the 350 rWHP mark.

Nothing too exciting, but since it's 5:20 am, figure I would be okay with making a post such as this.

May this post be archived for a later date

Thank you!!!

I have also been looking into what your talking about the air jacks.

I can't seem to find the answers but I see alot of race cars using it.

Where you have a air hose jack by the hood and the jack pistons come straight down and lift the car.

Let me know where I can get some info.

Your project sounds sick I have seen a few two tone jobs but haven't seen Satin yet.

the flat black look will pass by quickly. It is just another fad.

leave the flat black for your Barbeque grill.

sifu, if you're going to do a cage i think you should paint the sides flat black, but get cf doors and leave them unpainted to get that lambo look...i think that would look sick!

Your car is looking good as it sits already. Go for it, just don't overdo it.
