Random Roadster Sightings

Air suspension?

 

[Dave EV]

Air suspension?

No, that reservoir down there is just a remote oil reservoir for the shocks. Air suspension would have that spring visible under the upper a-arm replaced with an air-bag.

Looks like they're working with that wire and cable and had to disassemble the dash to work on it.

Andrew, I also think you need the "Gun Metal Black" rims! You can try mine on for looks if you like. that'll really make your look complete. Any bright reflection, which the rims are doing now, throws off the effect the matte finish makes.

Spotted today ... wine red ... Illinois, Schaumburg, Eastbound Golf Road at Meacham. About 2:30pm.

I think pics taken FROM a Roadster of Roadsters randomly encountered in the wild might deserve a special category. . Nice!

I played around with wrapping too, adding some electric blue to my 2010 Roadster, as I thought I needed to turn more heads! :wink:

Now that's a cool number plate.

It is so difficult to get good ones in the UK.

My car there has my initials and two unnecessary digits (like your T23) ... did you try for that? ... at least the government "released" these inexpensive ones.

I'd paint the 2 white. Think how fast you could then go past average speed cameras!?

Now what I'd love to see is a two tone with red and black. But "wine" red.

Looks great norty!

Please give us an update in a few months and let us know how the wrap holds up (with a few miles on it)...I might add some red to mine if it holds up well...is that wrap supposed to be as durable as the paint armour?

if you don't wish to pay a big premium, the UK system of letters & numbers can be fun to play around with. Of course T3 SLA had been bought by a lucky punter already.

Jaff, I will let you know how the wrap holds up after some real world wear. It is supposed to last 3-5 years but that is a vulnerable panel. BTW, I had to remove the splitter and rear diffuser for the wrap to be applied, so I know my way around the undertray bolts now! Paint armour is less flexible and a thicker material I believe.

#1000 still out and about:

My son spotted a Roadster this afternoon at this school in La Jolla, Ca. So cool!

Thanks for the inspiration. I just checked into getting some of the details done.

Coloring the front piece is just asking for ugly black paint chips.

Some work I had done today:

 

[VolkerP]

Looks great, but IMO it calls for the blue lip like norty's Roadster. Random Roadster Sightings

 

[NEWDL]

That is a bit tougher to pull off on a 2.0 than it is on the 1.5 front end...

Vinyl or paint?

It is meant to match company colors or is it just a color scheme that was dreamt up?

 

[W.Petefish]

Something that I thought up. It is vinyl.
