favorite question people ask me
What kind of car is that?
Me: Lotus
Who makes Lotus?
Me: Lotus
So is it Italian?
Me: Hethal England
Is that in Europe?
Me: E N G L A N D!
So, it is Italian!!
Me. Yes
Those who know, Know.

I've had similar conversations and I'm here in England. Had some young lads asking me if I'd built it myself! With all the problems I've had I think I'd have done a better job.

Thanks for the photos Bilbao-Emira. Really like your "yellow body piping". Is this paint? Or some sort of edging film? How is it done?

 

[Bilbao-Emira]

are you running spacers with your Airie wheels? or did you just increase the offset. Looking to buy for my car and would rather not use spacers.

I am running 6mm spacers, and actually waiting for the 12mm hub centric from GRP.

Yellow Piping is vinyl. LOTUS logo on side skirts and Emira logo on the lip is hand painted.

Nice. I was thinking of doing the bonnet/hood in a carbon fibre wrap to match my bodykit, now I've seen yours in black I can get an idea of what it would look like. More money to spend.

Love the wheels and colour, again, thinking the same for mine.

The contrasting bonnet/hood ups the Emiras game somewhat, like the Porsche models that have a carbon fibre one.

Hood is actual carbon fibre, from Aerie too

Aahh, it looks plain black. Jeez, how much was that?

Could you take another pic a bit closer showing the carbon fibre next to the paintwork, just the hood/bonnet, please?

Here you go!
Not easy to see the detail of the hood, you need to zoom in, but pic looses definition once I upload it here.
Hope this helps. Price was around 1800 Eur one year ago
