Building a (6-speed manual) 2009 Audi R8! NEW WHEELS and Carbon Fiber Aero Package looks AGGRESSIVE!

[@eddiebreelz4226]

I just love how everyone jumps in and helps with the project..... I need a shop like this to work in just as a filmer...

[@nickwrazen1967]

They get paid to make videos so when they record they all help it makes sense don’t it?

[@_thanoskatra_7483]

They just love cars

[@Cameron_1]

@@_thanoskatra_7483 yeah but they’re also getting paid a bag

[@tylerbates8198]

When you’re doing what you love it’s not work. There’s a difference between working in a dirty nasty shop working on pieces of rust but getting to work on super cars would be fun af

[@alexbach3332]

This isn't a shop looking to get customers in and out they're doing content, they can do this most shops cant afford to drop stuff to come help

[@totalrevampautodetailing8007]

This is what I love about this channel. Everyone has their own thing going on but everyone comes together to help. Awesome build!

[@jaycar06ify]

All of Rickie's cars are so dope. When they're running at least 😂

[@RunningSolo]

Hahahaha ... too soon Jr ... hehe

[@HMDbiotch]

@@RunningSolo coming for your neck, the pure disrespect lol

[@jonathanhagerty7174]

This is one of the most beautiful spoiler/trunk combo kit ive seen. It really gives me GT3RS vibes now with all that aero and stance.

[@sauceedawsee]

you guys are goated frfr, yall have my dream job

[@TrenC21]

I love how everyone works on everyones' project cars...Throttl is like a bunch friends working on eachothers cars...legit freaken awesome!!!

[@willgeez]

This car looks incredible! What a transformation, so happy for Rickie, what a nice humble guy. Like the other comments mention, I love how everyone comes together to help on each others build. This is what makes this channel special.

[@thatguysjdm9416]

Aside from the EK build, this is definitely something I’m staying in tune for!! Audi build 😍😍

[@iDeezo]

looks really good! Just needs a rear diffuser to complete the look.

[@tyler_bt3326]

Rear diffuser and silver end plates on the spoiler would complete it

[@Kiaboys392]

Carbon diffuser/steering wheel, TT kit, Red guts, interior list goes on and on lol thats why we love cars

[@josephpiper4167]

yea thats badass Riki!! next i think ya should black out the badges bro

[@nathanwilliam1922]

For real my favorite car in the fleet. I’m a vw guy through and through. I still love the other builds but this one tugs on my heart strings.

[@KuntMane]

Damn, it looks so great. Kind of wished for a different color but still looks amazing. Well deserved Ricky.

[@pedrorodrigueziii4859]

Yeah my vote is for a wrap. That silver is hella-generic.

[@cliffordjohnson943]

Gorgeous R8💎

[@neftaliresto1]

Ricky... R8 looks amazing... love the Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 boxing gloves.... Much respect from PONCE..

[@nitenite7142]

Y is it that Puerto Ricans do that tho if ya was so proud of your flag and ya island y did ya sell it for food stamps

[@joevergnetti767]

Love that the whole shop pitches in, and it would DEFINITELY look killer with the updated front end - they look mean sitting still, and sound amazing at full throat!! Love it!

[@kevinpardo_]

Next what I would do on the R8 is wrap the roof gloss black and get an exhaust system on that bad boy 🤙🏽💯 Love the build keep going at it

[@thescottishhammer7570]

Totally agree. Wrap the roof gloss black.

[@Triple-J-]

Looking good 👍🏼 just screams voor black Audi rings instead of chrome 😉 I am a no chrome spokesman kind of guy 😜

[@bjornjochems]

Car looks amazing. Wouldn't change anything. This is best looking R8 ever

[@ro63rto]

Really really nice transformation. With all that gloss CF the blades are looking a little jealous. Go on, get some CF ones.

[@pyroboyswe]

More R8 for the people !

[@zaben01]

with the nardo grey color, it will look like fireeeee!!!

[@adanhernandez791]

Ricky you should paint the Audi emblems neon yellow to match with the calibers, For a little splash of color.

[@enaz1]

Any updates on the R8? Would love to see more of this build! :)

[@mikeellis4543]

My favorite car in the shop. Love all the upgrades. Black emblems gotta be next....

[@chrisbutler8059]

Perfect R8 build!! I think, I personally would add carbon fiber mirrors, a rear diffuser and maybe the updated front grill and call it done….. lol

[@Olstewdog]

RICKY! That things sick nasty! Whoowee!

[@pedrorodrigueziii4859]

First and foremost, I'm so glad to see a hard working, great guy like Ricky get to enjoy a car like this. Second, I didn't realize that wing would set that car off the way it does. I'm not a huge fan of the R8, but seeing it set up that way is wicked. Honestly the only thing that it needs is a wrap or something. That silver is BORING. I also wonder if they can clear coat the carbon fiber section behind the door to match the finish on the rest of the trim now.

[@ashtonfurtado5488]

this^^^

[@PANTYEATR1]

Ricky aka Thumbalino 👍i think that flat black should be carried on to the center of the hood...just the hood. it would change the whole look of the car. good job Rick💪

[@DarkKnight-ws3wx]

Best channel on KZbin when it comes to friends helping each other out on their builds, R8 looks aggressive as hell now

[@justinb5760]

Looks badass...only things I would do now is a carbon hood and adjustable coil overs for ride height and stiffness for when u take it to the track, because u know u will eventually!

[@konablu1347]

Ricky siempre representando a Puerto Rico 100%. Love the look you gave the R8. No need to lower it at all it looks perfect the way it is. As you said keep chasing your dreams you never know when you may catch them....

Gloss black the roof and side accent pieces to match the gloss on the wheels and carbon add ons. Maybe paint the gas cap the same color as the calipers. Very nice add ons and car, congrats and enjoy one of the best looking cars ever produced.

Man!!! That’s sick!!! I’m loving the lip kit and the wing!!!! I’m debating on getting an R8, Lotus Evora 400 or i8. Now that I see this, it’s gonna be the R8!!!!

[@vtec.5ucks]

i'm glad the wing sits back as far as it does. i hate it when wings sit too far forward!

[@Matthewbryan24]

I think if u guys did the track style build , it would be great if ur tyre setup more meaty and track wheels

[@JFlogerzi]

You nailed it. Transformation for sure!

[@TheZekeZeke1]

Exactly how I'd build a R8 , the 2009 R8s are my all time dream car

[@WexWerxScott]

That a good looking kit fellas!! Might be time for some of those carbon fiber side plates to tie it all home!

[@justinzanone5800]

absolutely love it.... .would probably change the matte black accent panel on the side to gloss, or carbon!!!!!!!! great work

[@francisdy6738]

17:14 you can spot a white 32 and black c6 is that what TJ was talking about in his insta story?

This is the proper way to mod an R8 unlike how Brad Danger of Ideal Media is doing his. His first mod was to put a top mount carrier to carry all his stuff. If he wants to haul so many things he should have bought a truck instead!
