[@yellowlinebusinessm856]

Hey have a build but I need help can you reach out to me please

[@malikdigger4544]

Scraplife Garage u guy's did incredible job restoring this Audi R8

[@dxcouch]

As a powder coater myself, might i suggest Prismatic Powders "Cadillac Gray" for the rims. Its a sharp dark metallic between a dark silver and black and is high gloss. Its an absolute stunning color on rims.

[@xinx-fn8973]

Those HRE wheels would look amazing in a silver/aluminum finish with that car 🔥

[@gd1996]

Good to see another build, I like the series with the parts.... but the builds are why I am here. Interesting on the Florida certificate of destruction as Tavarishs P1 has that.

[@Topofthelinetommy]

Exciting! I just bought a gen 2 R8 glad this vlog popped up.

[@kickit59]

Wow this is a cool rebuild! I have never really checked out an R8 before but this car is really cool! I like the direction you want to take it! I am looking forward to the next video whether it's the R8 or the Demon!

[@joshbourlas7936]

Love to see rebuilds on this channel

[@brianmc5083]

Always enjoy your videos.

[@NET-POSITIVE]

@10:23 The passenger side braded fluid hose on the charge cooler has a bend that looks like it is almost kinked.

[@timothyhervieux5673]

I’m glad you guys are back doing videos .. enjoy watching and learning

[@simondarrie666]

2015 tyres the last guy never ripped it hard enough , love the wing back seats please keep them

[@crherniman]

Because the previous owner sent it into the back of a truck 😂

[@pauljackson1069]

Removing the wing back seats would be unthinkable in the UK, love the projects, the LS swaps in to German cars would also be unthinkable here, we have very different attitudes to things as your muscle cars don't come here through dealers except the Mustang they tried. Your car, your choice. Keep up the good videos.

[@nigelw598]

Hi, I understand “Different strokes for different folks” and respect that and I also get that German technical bent of “don’t mess with years of technical invention”. In Australia though, an LS swapped Porsche would be welcomed here with open arms by most. We love our V8’s down here. As they say “there is no substitute for cubic inches”. I imagine the seats going into this to make for a more comfortable ride will still be pretty special. Best of all “Gotta love a Supercharger”. Excuse me whilst I wipe away my drool. Stay safe and well, Cheers 🍻

[@doubledrc2793]

whoever that is watching escape from tarkov.. hes the real hero of the channel!

[@scraplifegarage]

I figured someone pick up on whatever was on his screen lol

[@BigDaddyTech]

Ill send a Tshirt if you can name who im watching!

[@doubledrc2793]

@@BigDaddyTech wish I could.. but whoever it is I’ve never watched play tarky

[@rpturbo]

I'm sure you know who 1320 video is, but it might be a great chance to collaborate and get Kyle to come up if he is interested in the seats or something? He is a little smaller, and may love those in his R8. Love watching the rebuilds!

[@joesavage6084]

Joe from Canada great rebuild video's keep them coming

[@EgTwizzy]

Another great video! I think those wheels in a silver like finish would look amazing in that type 42

[@whobroughtdude2231]

This build looks like it’s going to be a beast. Looking forward to seeing through until the end.

[@haroldmclean3755]

That is a Nice Car 👍

[@randysinger2673]

Very nice Upgrade from that Juke, Now your going to have a Daily Driver with some CLASS !

[@kumizooooom]

Love the vids on this channel good luck with the Audi!!! Also idk why but I started laughing when I saw the person running in the background 😂

[@scraplifegarage]

There is a CrossFit next door lol

[@grahamsnider9789]

Love the R8 in the uk they are head turners here can’t wait to see this finished

[@2alawabidingcitzen]

21:45 😂😂😂😂😂 the whole video I was like is that kerrington until you show up. 😂😂😂😂😂 🤦🏾

[@squeakycleanphotography5239]

LITERALLY have watched every episode that I can find on this channel so every upload get watched as soon as I get the notification

[@OwnerOpEdu]

Love the various angles shot in the video

[@dinoco88_]

AUDI R8 WITH GT WING LOOK AMAZING.

[@scraplifegarage]

👍 agreed

[@f-tr-a9177]

Hahah, finally you are rebuilding something 🎉,, yeah i think the OEM Steering wheel looks better on this one. Can’t wait for the next one

[@robertjones1709]

Looks like you found a Fun Daily, maybe you'll do a Track day?.....or maybe not, Just finish it out. Yep steering wheel needs a new home.

[@andrewbeetz2196]

I like it, although I am concerned with this hair cut and an R8 you're leaving us for corporate America. Let's talk about the IS300 wagon!

[@yosefmiller6403]

Best car in nfs heat can’t imagine irl! that v10 roars!

[@crherniman]

Interesting on the cooling fan differences. I am kind of a nerd when it comes to part numbers and things that are compatible on other cars. It would have been interesting to cross reference the part #'s because to me the fan with the metal shroud looks like the fan could be from an all road. Oddly enough the R8/Lambo fan with integrated plastic shroud sells for MUCH more money.

[@timothyhervieux5673]

Man that car sounds great . My RS5 sounds like that. love it

[@noahrosado8916]

Love your videos man!

[@blocheadz]

Speech speed is on point!

[@LassoedBooty]

19:28 you can see Lee working on the demon 😂

[@jimmyfish5388]

You are so lucky with this purchase. It could have gone terribly with structural damage. Nice find it’s a great car

[@Dudson_2115]

still insane work keep going

[@jimhatfield5381]

-Well at least I am now watching current videos. I started with the yellow Porsche. -And glad I am through with Hell Cats and all of it's friends. -For the spoiler at the bottom if it isn't carbon fiber it could be fiberglass and in that case you can make it look like brand new -When you said (at 18:15) my car, did you REALLY mean YOUR car or the shops car? Just wondering if this is really yours? -I don't known anything about R8's but the car's style looks fine and the engine has a powerful sound. -I am watching this video just to know more about many cars that I will never want work on or work on. Porsches...that's my car So I heard you said that this IS GOING TO BE YOUR CAR. "A garage without a Porache is just a dark hole" - Walter Rohr - Porsche development

[@maritimeracingeastcoastert1464]

Great video as always ❤

[@SSForeign]

Ultimate steal on an R8 rebuild just two radiators and back up running

[@robsdeviceunknown]

2 things i have wanted in this life. to shift my business to a format like yours, eBay motors. Focusing on higher end parts, and I want to own a junk Yard. strictly for fun so I would have to hire people to run it, even if it just broke even. Just so I can enjoy my retirement lol I'm 53 though and retired, I wont ever be able to afford it. Plus i don't know NEAR enough. I would need to find someone like yall to do a free apprentice type thing.

[@ianerridge5932]

You really need to check the bulkhead, these are notorious for cracking of the bulhead which is hidden behind the wiper motor and washer bottle, even on non crashed cars.....

[@bengone3349]

I will agree, you got lucky on the damage. It would be interesting to know what the insurance company estimated the damages to be.

[@angelcelis9090]

It was over the estimated market value which is why they totaled it out.

[@rpturbo]

Not necessarily, many times on cars like that, they just cut their losses because if they start fixing it, and then find more damage, they end up, upside down, or stuck fixing something that shouldn't have been fixed, and have been sued and lost over future issues, so they just cut a check for as little as possible, and as a owner, you better hope your properly insured.

[@midnightcoil]

The led lights suck the rest is cutt and paste. I just did one in 5 months as a hobbyist. I rebuilt the L.ed now that sucked ass. Lol. Rest was easy. Even the door harness is coded . If you change the doors, keep the original wiring .

[@bigsquatchsasfoot1964]

Cool ride dude , I’m with you on the wheel colour I hate it I’m also with you on the seats as I’m a tad portly ( that’s posh for fat lol ) and those sort of seats are just uncomfortable to me ! Couple of old lounge recliner chairs would do nicely 🤣 looking forward to seeing this one being rebuilt 👍

[@arielbarrios7932]

Question, since I purchased an Audi R8 v8 and is really hard to find parts with out the parts number, is the same front parts for the v10 and the v8 (radiators, trunk radiator’s support)

[@6shifts]

eBay is a love hate relationship they really do suck but you need em

[@Entitledttw]

Waiting for the demon build video 😮‍💨

[@yeamewoo]

Just now finding out you’re in Stevensville, I work down Thompson creek. Small world!

You thought I wasn’t gonna comment on the intro edit? 🤌🏼

[@jasonruch3529]

Just gotta call the dent doctor for that hood n yer set...he'll make it SMOOOOOTH BAYBEEE😂😂😂😂

[@defundthefeds]

The VF supercharger badge missing is pretty funny to me.

[@scraplifegarage]

I guess it peeled off or something?

[@defundthefeds]

@@scraplifegarage might have been taken off by the previous owner

[@NET-POSITIVE]

The HRE rims alone are thousands of $'s even used. As long as they weren't damaged beyond repair.

[@bobkin611]

Bro did you get a tan and teeth whitened? 😂

[@EL-ESE9]

I have a question the half 8. did u plan for the car to be like that

[@scraplifegarage]

Yup. It’s the go kart r8. With 1500hp on tap…😁

[@EL-ESE9]

shitttt 1500 that crazy and it towed it brother that's is next level crazy@@scraplifegarage

[@mac8179]

I’d go gloss black on those HREs

[@FlynDirty1]

@scraplifegarage I understand ordering parts off of Ebay (sponsor) but a simple hammer, pliers and a big scew driver would fix the hood latch. Why not?

[@JaycobGTR]

Bad ass 🔥🔥🔥

[@vicentemartinez7690]

Aahhh thank goodness a Audi. That Juke phase had me concerned. :) I was like.. what’s next a neon? Hahaha

[@Greg1096]

So im gathering that this is a personal rebuild not a rebuild for sale?

[@zanechristenson3436]

You missed a golden opportunity to dump the chute on the R8 lol

[@mansoorahmed6928]

Waiting for the next part on this Audi

[@user-ts9nq5zw2j]

Tow it, doesn't look like there is too much damage, you can fix it!!!!!!!!! Best of luck, Mike from Japan

[@waynek921]

Nice car 🚗 will look great soon.

Bro you got to vacuum fill that coolant system

[@Bwill-hn2pc]

Got any CF ferrari sf90 front rims?

Also if yall ever need a detailer I'm the best and I travel..

[@djpmatchbox]

Are you ever gonna finish the 240 or that gone

[@Bernin21]

If you sell that car like how much would you sell it for after is all finish?

[@jackb1000]

I am sooooo green with envy! Whatta buy!!!!!! It's like buying a real life Lego set to put together after you remove the crap. You got your partner on good buys by a mile and feel free to let him know I said that. >👍👍

Give us a Smoke show before you replace those tires please. I mean its a must isn't it?

[@grantmclaren3626]

The radiator for the super charger is also for a Porsche 911 986....keeping it German😀

[@bmc5108]

Nice haircut. Looks much better.

[@deancwhmackinnon6547]

Good thing about an Audi? You need parts? go rob a VW beetle! same same🤣

[@Jimmy_Jamz]

Wanna sell me the wheel for my S5? Would go great with my Alcantara interior 😎

[@0ttoman]

Why did you cut the bar off the front end 😢😢 it didn’t look bent

[@yassinebedraoui5212]

Why did you cut that part of metal?

[@whipzsurgeon]

Use the doors for wall art 🤔

[@2alawabidingcitzen]

Can't wait to start getting sponsors from my KZbin channel.

[@classictoexotic]

look into a carbontastic R8 steering wheel.

[@q4speed96]

Can swap back the V8 because that's still best sounding R8 to me

[@Kaizasouza1]

Interested in your steering wheel whats the part number please or item number. Loving the channel

[@Poseoptional01]

Respect 🫡

[@Mr.clintontoney]

That steering wheel was probably swapped after the wreck, hence the air bag light. It’s probably not even hooked up. Definitely a need to go. CALL CARBONTASTIC

[@Henker2]

Looks like the seats were a upgrade option from the factory.

[@gezdipz5425]

One of my favourite cars can't wait for the build but where is the fd?

[@scraplifegarage]

FD is sitting on the lift waiting for sone parts.

[@pali1H]

My main issue with the "my garage" feature in ebay is that a lot of the top search results will show dumb cheap Chinese universal spoilers/splitters or diffuser addons etc and not actual oem parts for my 2017 Camaro SS.

[@crherniman]

Yes, it's mostly useless.

[@GusP-rv8yn]

What was the auction price ?

[@DoseOfMaurice]

I wish Yall would post more but Ill wait for longer video’s tbh

[@Iwasfoundunharmed]

Look. Hes working on multiple cars multiple projects and that takes time. There arent daily videos but when a video comes out its long and has multiple interest points. More content is more interesting

@@Iwasfoundunharmed I know thats why I said Ill just wait for longer videos Imma still watch whenever they post I have notifications on

@@DoseOfMauricesame. Im always pretty hyped when a new video is out.

Those wire tie “Flags” not being cut off are driving me nuts! (Around 9:25 ) for a car this expensive, that kind of sloppiness is disturbing and is messing with my OCD! Lol
