Love it in white with those wheels!!

Are the OEM mirrors for TT-RS brushed alu or matte alu?

I was considering getting a set for my car to match oxygen silver and not sure if I want brush or matte alum

And yeah, you're going to want to hear that 5 cyl scream louder and louder. These types of cars are nearly impossible to keep stock for too long!
Yeah, it's already happening... Feeling the need for more volume from the exhaust already! Just. Can't. Get. Enough!

Thanks! It really surprised me how quick it is too. I read all the reviews with the performance #'s and thought I knew what to expect, but it really is a surprising little beast.

Thanks! Surprisingly, I know the pictures make it look white, but it's actually Suzuka Gray -- you can really see the difference when you see it parked next to a white car/object.

The OEM mirrors are matte aluminum. I think it's a really cool touch, compared to the brushed alum. on other S/RS model cars.

Are you planning to keep the rotor wheels?

I read your post too, and then still called it white... I just assumed your white balance was off

Ah, that's why they have the neat look to them. I think I'm gonna order a set of those mirrors to match oxygen silver side blade!

Yeah, it's crazy how white the color looks in photos. There's a great photo out there (can't seem to find it now) that had a white TT-S and a Suzuka TT-RS parked next to each other -- you could really spot the big difference.

I think the matte mirrors would look absolutely sick with the silver side blade -- although your stock mirrors look mighty nice too!

I think I'm going to keep the rotor wheels at least through this winter. I really like the way that they look (they look sweet on your R8, by the way!). But, I'm sure some aftermarket wheels will be calling my name soon enough

Couldn't resist taking a drive at lunch today

So, I grabbed the SLR and did a mini-shoot. Hope you guys enjoy the pics!
