Three Audi R8 Corrections by Oakes!

I've had three different Audi R8 coupes come through my garage in the past month, figured instead of three separate threads, I'd compile them into one. A little more fun this way! Quick break down of the three different cars...



The first is a 2010 Audi R8 V10 six speed, with about 9k miles on it and it's paint has seen better days...the goal here was to correct and ceramic coat the car for optimal protection as it was going to live the rest of its life as a dedicated track/weekend warrior.





On to the pictures!

The second is a 2009 Audi R8 V8 six speed, whos paint has also seen better days, but we were only going for a full correction and sealant on this car. The owner traded in his beautiful 993 Turbo for this titanium packaged beast. This car, as well as the others had aftermarket exhaust with the factory tips.



We first had to remove the somewhat unattractive clear bra on the vehicle, full front end bra to be applied shortly after correction!

The third is another 2009 Audi R8 V8 six speed with matching Daytona Grey side blade, this one was one of my favorite color combinations with the burnt orange interior. The owner had concerns with some rough feeling to the paint, assuming some sand/sea water damage as this car lives at the beach. We went ahead and corrected the car and protected it with a few layers of sealant.
