LOVE the wheels!!!
The color on some of the pics looks very similar to Isle of Man Green yet in another, looks darker.
How do you describe it in person?

Thank you! The colour is flat unlike IOM being metallic but you can get similar tones. When its dark you get a darker deeper green but it the sun the colour radiates and you can really see how light it can be.

I think with this colour especially the touches we have done to carry the colour through really make it pop, really happy with the end result.
You should be very happy with the end result indeed!
The car looks stunning!!!
😍😍😍

So first off we have of course wrapped the car in Era Green from Inozetek. I’ve always been a simpler colour type of guy but when looking through the options with the team and working with Inozetek closely, this colour swab sat on my desk for days! We are proud to say this is the first Era Green car in the UK wrapped in house. Finished off with some details colour matched around the car we thought were A much needed touch such as the grille centre, side skirts and rear bumper corners. Super happy with the result as these were always in the back of my mind as to why they were gloss black.


We then went for the Eibach lowering springs (around 20mm) as well as completing the stance on Aluwerks XT2 alloy wheels which we got finished off in a custom bronze/gold.

Low line we are running our V1 development kit including front splitter and side skirts both in gloss black. I have been really happy with it so far as it really adds to the car, looking forward to having the next versions complete as well as the carbon options. Really looking forward to seeing what kind of after market styling is available as time goes on as these cars are so ready for it, with such great body lines and angles.

Now the MST intake has been one of the most entertaining mods yet. THE SOUND is unreal as well as the premium feel of the product I really am impressed. We should be getting some dyno results filmed so stay tuned but I can say the throttle definitely feels sharper and the car feels like it is breathing a lot better.

We have also upgraded the brake lines also to HEL lines which will help with reliability for a sustained spirited drive and/or track use.

Let me know what you think!
Thanks for all the positive comments everyone, here is a video tour of the build so far!

This is really making me want to wrap the gloss black bits on my car.

I know this is an old thread but these wheels look FILTHY!! On the G42! Whom ever chose Lamborghini Bronze was a genius. I really want to get these because I think coupled with the Thundernight Metallic they would really pop!

Can you share what kind of side skirt extension you have there please. I love that clean look without the winglet. In fact Im taking mine off once I find a straight extension. Will the one on an old 4 series fit the lenght?

Thank you bro! The wheels are really incredible, we had to go this colour as it compliments the colour so well. Of course we got the colour mixed up and custom painted as they were a must and now we offer them as a option on the site.

Hey, glad you like them. These are our V1 proto-type finished in gloss black. The kit will be coming soon so I will get some images once we officially launch it.

Stay tuned!

Yup I really think they would look great with Thundernight too! Any great photoshopers out there haha

These could be my summer wheels and keep the stock (performance) ones as the winter set perhaps?
