New G87 render

Not sure if it'll get the two scoops in the hood and bottom of the rear bumper is missing some detail. This is however the best render I've seen to date. Obviously since it's a sketch it won't wow anyone, but gives you a decent approximation of what it may look like once the camo is lifted.

Yeah this one's been around for a bit but most likely the most accurate other than the two pieces you mentioned.

Personally I hate the G80 hood so I'm happy we're not getting it.

This one is indeed the best one I've seen so far. Side skirts are wrong and also front bumper needs a bunch of work in this one but overall, not bad. Bottom side vents of front bumper stick out much further and kidneys are more of a relaxed shape

Maybe we can collaborate on this and I can edit the image until you think it's accurate?

Wow, okay that one is honestly extremely spot on. Front end is the closest I have seen in a render to the real thing

I just realized, why am I editing the other pic if this one is pretty close. All it needs is the side skirt, right?

That's fantastic! 10/10 on the edit. I don't believe it had any black plastic at the bottom of the side skirt though

Yeah, I tried to change the color of it, but the entire pic is really pixelated so it would have to be manually and painstakingly done. I don't have the patience for such a small payoff.

That looks good!

G80 should have gone with similar front end, looks BMW, but modern, IMO.

Latest render, colored the bottom side skirt and also removed that text as it was distracting from the style of the car.

Project_F87, can you ask your source to look at this latest render and let us know if anything needs to be tweaked?

Edit: I spoke too soon, I see the bottom of the bumper needs to be colored. Gawd dangit, back the drawing board.

Bottom middle of the front bumper is black! This render is spot on!

Are you talking about the part that sticks out and then tapers off on either end? Just that part?

Edit: Wait you said front bumper, not side skirt, but it is black in the render.

My response was because you said bumper, not side skirt. All is well in that render, nothing needs to be changed
