Default my Lambo Balloon White G coupe (Satin White)

The color code is based off the Balloon White that Lamborghini offers except I went a few shades whiter and finished it with a satin clearcoat which is a semi gloss type finish that's somewhere in between flat/matte and your regular gloss clearcoat. I wanted to be the first with this color and finish, and I wanted to stray from the flat finish trend that everyone is doing right now (nothing wrong with matte paint by the way)

New wheels will be on by next summer, lot more aggressive, promise not to disappoint, thanks for lookin hope yall like it.

This was the inspiration




and here's the result


























and here's the two rolling shots taken last week, the paint looks a bit flat here, so please excuse the sunlight and bad lighting in the tunnel

Interesting. I think your photography skills will negatively impact opinions.

I think that its going to look great once the wide body is done. Just make sure you take some quality pics for the shoot.

these are pictures taken with my iPhone so cut me some slack. So yea due to shitty pictures it may look like primer, but believe me, it is not.

your post is a fail... what you just said is too ridiculous to even respond too, you might wanna try reading what I actually wrote instead of making up your own version of it.

i can see what your going for and i think its going to look great. the pictures don't do it justice but i know its going to look nice. in my opinion, any color in satin looks fantastic. flat looks horrible!!! it also depends on the car, but the white suites the G. Nice work. make sure to get Satin white lips as well.

haha our interiors already look like *** from the factory so I'll give you that, heh... but yea like I said the shitty pictures make it look like primer, in person it's a beautiful pearl white with a satin gloss finish.


to the rest of the guys, thanks for being understanding about the **** picture quality, I know everyone here is used to bigtime photoshoots with expensive cameras, I'll make sure I post the car back up in that manner when everything is complete.

I will look forward to better pictures in the near future, especially after you've added the widebody kit.

I'll save my final opinion when you post better pictures, but right now it just looks like a big bar of soap.
