Good taste sir,

Years ago while working a supercar project we were asked by a certain world famous rockstar to colour match the paint of his new car to an actual Aubergine vegetable he had brought in.

He also asked for lucky Budda symbols to be painted on the doors and the hood in a very subtle different shade. Just had to catch the light right to see them.

The best bit was the lucky Budda spiritual rollcage we also fitted to protect him from harm. It was made from 3 lucky Budda crystal elephants built into the car, one in the dash, one by the gearstick with a fibre optic cable up its a** so it could glow and one in a little house behind his head on the parcel shelf.

He was super cool and just like your average joe, no ego or entourage in tow. His daily ride was an old black AMG 500 SEL, with blacked out chrome.
