NRG x Lambo Report post Posted April 6, 2011 just wanted to start this thread, and will continue to post pictures till the final project is completed on this thread. keep checking back for new photo updates! first of the parts have ARRIVED!!!! the parts actually arrived at the body shop (ELITE CUSTOMS - in Anaheim, CA) about 2 weeks ago - but due to scheduling conflicts, i was only able to get the gallardo into the shop tuesday. the parts are all amazing! the carbon weaves are perfect/consistent. everything was very well packed - and came without any issue. stuart at RSC even helped me source the needed OEM parts like the third OEM BRAKE light to help make the conversion easier. i highly recommend RSC and their service is great! CHRISTMAS came early this year! Unwrapping of the parts! Carbon Mirrors (the weaves are done so well - STUART, i'm keeping them ) Carbon SL Diffuser Carbon SL rear wing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NRG x Lambo Report post Posted April 6, 2011 went back today to see that they had successfully installed the RSC CARBON SL rear diffuser and rear wing. they're now currently smoking the third brake light before that gets installed. they'll be running an electrical line (since there's no existing line running to the rear spoiler on my car) and probably tap into an existing brake line near the left rear taillight or try to snag it from the 3rd brake light currently running from the rear window garnish. any suggestions? they've said that i might get a warning in the dash saying a bulb is out if i do this? i think LIQUID had a third light that had to be relocated from the garnish trim piece to the spoiler... any help or advice would be great! sorry for the crappy iphone photos! up next is the RSC side skirts and then the LP560 bumper!!!!

roncfpz Report post Posted April 6, 2011 Looks great! Look forward to the finished product. You may want to reconsider smoking the third brake light though for safety reasons. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would actually be his fourth brake light. NRG - If you pull the wing lights wiring from the tail-light, it wil light up dimly when your headlights/parking lights are on...Unlike other cars, Lambo runs the bulbs at 6v for the parking lights (instead of using a dual element bulb), and ramps it up to 12v when you press the brake. If you don't drive much at night, no big deal - It wasn't to me. I COULD NOT find the wiring for the third brake light above the rear window. Literally had 1/2 of the interior out looking for it. Ugh...If you can find that, you're golden. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackberry Report post Posted April 7, 2011 Coming along great! Can't wait for more pics. I personally love the oem rims, the only thing I personally would consider is SL rims, otherwise callistos look great. But that's my .50 cents, looking forward to seeing whatever you decide to do Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
