What modifications does this I8 have?

Did the owner only do a black paint job?

Will be interesting what others might say. I don't have an i8 yet, still learning. Visually, seems like the rims are painted. Original color is sophisto gray per the VIN decoder. Not sure if the accent was incorrectly noted as blue and painted gray or not. I'd probably pass on this one unless I knew the quality of the paint job(s).

Looks like sophisto with window tint and painted wheels. Plus whatever's going on with the calipers.

It's also de-badged which can damage the paint and the paint job on the rims is awfully ugly (subjective obviously). Would also pass like bob.

Biggest mod is the removal of any good taste!
