Default DUPONT REGISTRY Article | BF LP640 | D2FORGED

Hey guys, we just wanted to share some great news.

The BF PERFORMANCE / D2FORGED equipped LP640 that was done by AFTERFX was recently selected by Dupont Registry as the Publishers Choice Vehicle for their February Issue!!

Congrats to AFTERFX, when I visited their shop to drop the wheels off, the car was BONE STOCK. 3 days later it was completed.

I'm quite sure they could have gotten ANY wheel makers product for this project, but they chose D2FORGED, and for that we are truly grateful.

In case you haven't seen this car before, here is the mod list:



VEHICLE:

2008 LAMBORGHINI LP640
CARBON CERAMIC BRAKES

The wheels are sick, but I'm not a fan of the overall conversion. Did you guys get a mention in the article?

We got a mention in the bylines and we also have our logo on promotional handout that they print for dealers.

Thanks for your input, good or bad we appreciate you looking!

Throws it off for me too. A little less yellow would do the trick.
Still, a nice accomplishment for D2. The name is getting out there more and more.
