NEW CUSTOM ALLOYS FOR MY AUDI R8

[@TheEdParr]

Man there needs to be something better than just the like button to react to your videos. You’re absolutely smashing the content, cars are looking unreal. 10/10 man

[@MatArmstrongbmx]

I appreciate that!

[@88Guitars]

Hey matt, what did you do to adjust the window height? My tt mk2 has the same issue. I wonder if the solution would be similar.

[@killimanjaro9548]

You're so right, there needs to be an MA button 😂

[@simonfearing4907]

Amazing videos Mat only problem is since I’ve subscribed and started watching your videos I’ve not stopped pulling my car apart trying to do bits and bobs I even found myself digging out my old max power issues reliving my youth

[@MatArmstrongbmx]

MAKE SURE YOU STAY TO THE END OF THE VID TO SEE THE FULL TRANSFORMATION 😝🙌 Again thanks so much for all of your support! You're all legends! ❤️

[@andypaulus72]

[@atb678]

Transformation is right. I wasn't too sold on the wrap colour and the maroon wheels were not an improvement haha but as soon as you put those gorgeous gold wheels on it all came together! I think your vision was spot on.

Depends what horn your are talking about

[@N.a.syed.]

Mate, the small wins mean a lot. Especially when he's doing it all himself.

[@jordancorsellis2909]

Matt those wheels are CASH!! They are the absolute nuts! I still think you should put the black Audi badge on the front though! If this comment gets 50 LIKES then I think you should do it 😂 if not I’ll drop it lol

[@jayacourt8282]

Black the petrol cap too Mat 👌🏻

[@marcinmikula360]

I was nr 50 lol

i said the same thing the first day he did his wrap. Just needs that badge to finish it off!

U know I was never sure about the colour, but my god have the wheels just completely transformed the car! Kudos Mat for having a brave vision which many didn't agree with and some may still not, in my opinion u certainly have pulled it off buddy!

[@Stefanecandres]

The wheels looks amazing man!!! It's really beautiful your Audi R8. I should put the Audi badge to the engine hood!!

[@jameskilduff1622]

Nice to see you're now exempt from a front plate too, great work!

[@TacPrecision]

I think I used the same tint film to do the rear lights on my S4 - I also thought the finish was awful until I realised there was a protection film on the outside that you peel off after installation and it changes to a lovely gloss finish.

[@shabazmiah7058]

Was just about to comment this same thing 😂

[@JackCashMusic]

Nah they actually look fire! good choice with the polished lip! they are a bit like bbs speed lines with a modern touch

[@jackw9920]

Wheel Design is great, not sold on the colour though.

[@kilp2635]

That colour is perfect for a retro VW bettle or van not a AUDI R8 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@ChrisKellyPrime]

The color would look amazing with a darker car, a sand color car with gold wheels is weird as hell.

[@John_Wood_]

Return to original colour and all would be well....

[@scoobyimprezaSTI1]

And this is why the car scene is dead because of people that are sheep, ooooh dark wheels on a light car, booorrriiinnggg!!!

I’d have swapped the colour around. Calipers same colour as wrap and white wheels. Perfect combo

Its definitely the cheap headlight tint. I've tinted a fair few headlights. Its not easy but you for sure have the skill to pull it off! Car is looking sick btw and you're channel is popping. Keep up the great work!

the wheels would look much better with an army green, white or black wrap imo but it doesn't look bad at all

[@light1531]

Mat. The alloys are absolutely spot on - well done. Not only was the horn reaction priceless, plus the great fuse box action, but I now feel I own an Audi R8 every time I watch your video episodes!

[@hermanmyrlid1686]

For christmas i wish for you to use classical music for your timelapses for one video. Keep up the good work. You really inspire me and my life!

[@nickcann]

I completely admire the will and determination you show to do what you do and take things apart and fix them/make them better but it would be really nice to see you pay attention to the detailing sometimes to make things perfect and show others how to do that when you do what you do. The most annoying part of the R8 for me is the front corner of the bumper where is fits against the wing and the fact that it doesn't fit correctly there and you can see it has obviously been off/in an accident of some sort. That it where you could make your car look perfect by taking the time to put those little areas right and show what would be needed to be done to correct that properly. As I said before, well done, what you are doing is admirable and the fact you're managing to make a living from it is amazing. I watch quite a few different people on KZbin but you are quite unique in the fact you do so much work yourself and show others what can be done whereas so many others expect someone else to do the work all the time, well done.

[@Leechy-df8pg]

Not too keen on the colour if I'm honest. I like the style but the colour doesn't seem right. But if you love it matt thats all that matters
