Love White, best XR8 colour IMO! Dark tint, lowered a little with some gold dished wheels and





Couple more white ones getting built




Plenty more XR8s to go around getting built.

Please please please please PLEASE show me more pics of the Smoke! I will be eternally grateful. Seems like we have seen every colour but.

PS - Thanks for the great pictures, it brings a tear to my eye the car that is being built in our own backyard, and I am super amped to be part of it in some small way (Fanatic day, and owning a piece of the history).

I know that's what I'm worried about long term.. The heart sez black but the brain sez white.

Smoke looks nice the grill isn't so in your face in the dark colours
Dont think anyone would want to go slimline plates on the front. The section where the number plate goes looks massive

What do you mean? The plate is quite narrow, so the slimline is a shoe in. Natch.

PS - Just felt like adding natch.
