And no, no roll pan. I asked the guy if he can tuck the bumper in rather than go with a roll pan. I still use my bumper to some extent and also do like the look. So hopefully he can tuck it in maybe an inch and a half or two.

Actually, I changed up the colors yesterday...again!
No more lambo OEM color. something totally different now. Picking a color for a truck has got to be the hardest thing I've ever done concerning this vehicle. Harder than putting in the tranny dipstick actually!!

But the amount of work necessary to keep a paint job like that clean is ridiculous.

It's hard to tell from those examples but I don't like cars that scream for attention and say "Look at me", yet I do like cars that look clean, understated but still have the wow factor. ...but I will say it's a OEM color from Lamborgini.

...Motor swap stuff is up in the air right now, might be going a different direction with the motor.
That LP670 4 SV is just awesome! On another note, u change paint & motor ideas more than most do underwear.

Dis one here.

Im pretty sure it was exclusive to the LP640. ...
Thanks for paint ****.

What? You don't like Lambo orange, yellow or green? Those are high impact colors that pop. I like em. Would I paint my ride those colors? Prolly not, but exotics are different. Do lambo orange. Those colors & what they're on are not designed to blend. I can see it now...

Lambo Saleman: "What color do u what Sir?"

Julien: "One that allows me to blend in"

Salesman: "You're buyin a Lambo & don't wanna stand out?!?"
