Chris Brown's G

Since there seems to be so much interest in the work on Chris Brown's Gallardo, I'll provide the details since we at Euro Motorsport actually designed and built the car minus the wheels. The story in a nutshell is like this.....We were called upon to build a Gallardo for Chris with a Spiderman theme. Being that he's a young man of 17 years he is really into comics. We thought this was really cool. The first thing I did (I actually did the physical work) was gut the entire car. The interior was Dark Blue with Grey Suede. The lower dash, the door panels, the seat inserts were obviously the suede. Ok so your Spiderman, blue and grey? Of course not. Out came the Grey and in with blood red Alcantara. Now I always thought and Gene-O agreed that the silver plastic in the G's was kind of cheap. Spiderman would not aprove. The next best thing to a woven web was woven carbon fiber. So I removed all the interior trim pieces (again me personally, sweating I might add) and they went into our custom trim facility to magically come back Carbon. The instrument cluster was the hardest part because its not a sticker and you have to follow the bends and recesses with the process so that it looks right. We only wanted the silver part in carbon because the black factory soft touch looks great around the cluster. So 7 days later back in with the trim. The pieces are the instrument cluster, 2 center console pieces, the steering column surround and the door handle pulls. Now goes in the Alpine big bump. I forget the model but with rear video, Nav etc. The speakerbox again had to work for a superhero soooooo...with the new seats having Black Widow spiders being embroidered at the moment it was only natural to put another spider as the design for the speaker grill. Oh and it had to be red and blue leather. Big Black Spider deep red backlight. Looks really cool...the pics just don't show well because of the lighting....sorry....again...I was sweating and didn't think about it. For the outside of the car there wasn't a whole lot he wanted. He had mentioned that he was getting some wheels through a friend (I guess that was you Harry). The rear marker lights and tail lights were smoked but laws didn't allow us to smoke the headlights(out of state blah,blah,blah). The only other exterior custom piece was the vented exhaust cover under the engine lid. We carboned it too. Anyway that's our story at Euro Motorsport on the build of Chris Brown's Gallardo. BTW, he's the most respectful, nice and genuine gentleman I have met in a long time. Very admirable considering his position in life at such a young age. I still could't tell you if it were him on the radio singing (Im still stuck in the 70's&80's)but I can say he's a fine young man and we wish him the best in the future. Here are some of the build pictures I took while we did it.
Not only can he not dress .

Ha, this was posted a while ago but didn't know it was his. That makes more sense.

Agreed, he's a kid with some talent (he can actually dance pretty well and sing okay) - so let him have his fun.

IMO, the interior is horrible but at least done with quality. Exterior is sexy no matter how you slice and dice it.

Ewwwww..this is tough. I don't care for the wheels and the interior is something even Spiderman wouldn't roll in....and the box would probably look better covered in suede. I guess that's it. Hope he plans on keeping it forever.

Even trying to consider that the owner is 17 years old - the quality of the concept and execution leaves everything to be desired.
