    I didn't care for the black wheels with the tan interior - but then again it was a definite step up from the polished chrome wheels. The light buckets look great. All-in-all, very tasteful. Count me out on the wheels but the car is stunning.

    I think these mods look great...but I must agree the wheels would look better with a black interior.

    Dear Lamborghinisti,

    I don't know about the wheels, looks like they're full of brake dust....but I guess you wanted to get rid of the "Bling" factor
    I like the carbon fiber light surrounds. Can they still be bought? ...where and how much?

    Please let us know. :)

    I also forgot....I added the clear turn signal lights up front..........I have a complete carbon fiber dash/shifter coming from MACarbon. I will post pics when it gets here and I install..

    - The rear carbon fiber light buckets and the front clear turn signals came from Driven Exotics.

    Black wheels would never be my choice on an exotic.

    I've seen way to many "pimped" Japanese cars with the wheels spray painted black.

    It's what you do when you can't afford better.

    Your telling someone that owns a Lamborghini its what you do when you can't afford better! LOL. Thats why I typically dont ask people their opinion...you always have a few smart***s that take things too far.

    Well Mr. Smart*** heres a picture just for you! :)

    You asked my opinion, it was not meant as a personal attack,


    obviously your mother didn't raise you right.


    Other than the wheels, the car looks great.

    Understood. Others have disagreed with the wheels (above posts) and thats fine, but when you tell someone its what they do when they cant afford better that sounds like a personal attack....and quite frankly as I read the numerous threads on this forum there are always those that choose to attack, be rude, and just post very annoying comments...and always do it from the safety of their home.....I bet you or someone else wouldnt roll up at the gas station in your Toyota Tercel and say that to me or anyone else....why say it here? I guess because you can. I dunno. I would be willing to bet alot of the people that post all the rude and annoying stuff would stop IF there was a way to validate vin numbers and their owners.

    Hope your day will be as good as mine...I am going to dig through my sofa and see if I can find some gas money so I can drive my Diablo. LOL.

    I like it.

    The comment 2na is uncalled for. I read his profile and he says that his personal cars are the ones that are in his shop? Hope nobody takes their car to him...

    A thread that is entitled "WHAT do you think?" gives permission for posters to be both complimentary and critical. You state that you typically dont ask people their opinion (spoken like a true Lamborghini owner). However, you DID choose to make the exception and here you have asked what others think. They are thus invited BY YOU to tell you that your car and its sundry modifications are either beautiful to them, or look like crap in their opinion. You should expect a complete range of sentiments based soley upon your own instigation. I dont think 2NA went too far at all. Thats his opinion, like it or leave it. Perhaps to some its cool & classy, and to others its cheap & tacky. If you start a thread that solicits others opinions, you should be able to take whatever commentary they they wish to share without getting all bent out of shape, or perhaps entitle your thread "What (NICE things only) do you think?".

    As to your car and its modifications, Im not feeling it. But then again, its not my car and if youre happy, I say enjoy and thanks for sharing with us anyway.

    Dear Lamborghinisti,

    Baky...

    I don't think 2NA's financial comments were directed at you. I believe it was in reference to "pimped" Japanese vehicles....spray-can on wheels.....buzzing " fart-can" exhausts and wings bigger that an F 40's.

    How about another shot of your hand with a "ok" expression. :)

    I think the black wheels look great,a nice contrast.Not sure about the spray paint comment.
    Most of the sv's I've seen in europe have factory black roadster wheels and I never heard them being compared to Jap fast and furious sheds.

    best regards

    Agree with the above. Baky I think your car looks great, how about a carbon wing? will suit the wheels much better?

    Also I guess this looks like the jap pimp fast furious spray paint crap too.......in 1998
