I managed to change the colour of the wheels with ifruit literally just now on my custom (ps4)

 

 

Please share how you did it.

 

I've been trying all morning.

Usual way, nothing fancy.

 

I put the cheapest muscle wheels, painted them gold, loaded up ifruit then changed to stock wheels. Done.

 

I did put my custom plate on first before doing any modifications at the ceo garage though.

3. Spoilers. I hate them all. I wish R* would make a small lip available for every model. That way, you could still gain the benefit of GTA physics without some audacious wing sticking out the back like an eyesore.

 

 

Thought it wasn't necessary for this, like all the other Benny's cars in this update.

 

 

No that is how it works, dude is just complaining about nothing :p

 

On that note I think it has a wonderful selection of spoilers, I threw the small low profile one on as it looks pretty slick.

 

 

No. I'm complaining about something very specific. Something that has bothered me since the onset of GTA 5. The spoilers.

 

You like them, great. Good for you. I don't. I especially don't like any of the spoilers available for the Specter. It comes down to a difference of opinion and that's fine. We can agree to disagree on the aesthetics. But please don't say that I'm complaining about nothing when I make a clear point on something specific as this. Thank you.

 

 

I think what they were getting at is certain cars get a downforce stat once customized at Benny's. Downforce was added to certain cars starting with Cunning Stunts. Downforce increases traction as speed increases. Cars with downforce no longer get the benefits of using a spoiler. Therefore, certain cars you do not need a spoiler to get the best performance.

I initially wasn't going to bother with one, because I haven't really liked any 'Aston Martin' style car in GTA apart from the Massacro, and I wasn't such a fan of the short rear end after the rear wheel. There is definitely more booty behind the wheel on the DB10 than there is on this thing.

 

However JoonasPRKL has gone some way to convincing me with his stunning blue versions, and also when you add a spoiler, it seems to make the rear a little more 'right' to me.

I dig it more now

Your car and pictures are really good, makes me wanna get it. But ill try to resist, saying to myself that the filter makes it look stunning, but when actually playing, the car doesnt look that great in the cancerous yellow Californian sunlight.

 

No offence.

Gotta try to save my money for the next update somehow ;)

My apologies dude, wasn't intending to seem like I was getting on your case, only poking fun at your post because of how it came off to others (myself included). The problem was you weren't being specific even if you thought you were and therefore your point was not clear.

 

I'm specifically talking about the fact that the non custom only has one spoiler, and when you said you "hate them all" it came off as if you were talking about the custom version, the version of the car that doesn't require a spoiler and therefore made it seem you were complaining about nothing.

 

Hope that clears things up.

*May only works on PC.

 

1. Buy a cheap wheel and paint it the colour you want

2. Buy the stock wheel

3. Change session

That never worked for me on xb1

If it's not too much trouble, can someone point out some negatives when u upgrade to the custom? Slower, unremovable parts, etc?

Looking at the front of the car (Custom Variant), the bumper curves in so aggressively, that the front tires look ridiculously out of place.

Ended up using the S Racer wheels in black. I like them better than the original wheels.

If you like to mod your cars then the Specter custom is your best bet, otherwise I'd say whichever one you find most visually appealing. Neither is a 'best in class' type vehicle.

Sooo anybody race it yet? I just bought this and the Nero but only had enough for the custom upgrade, other than that both cars are bone stock. Feels good so far but hard to tell how the real deal runs. Other than elegy retro the downforce type sport class cars aren't great, I'm hoping this will be the faster, less nimble competitor to the elegy retro.

Then specify, the stock specter only has ONE spoiler, if you're bringing up all of the spoilers then you're talking about the custom in which it receives the downforce stat and therefore doesn't require a spoiler anyway.

 

Why come into a thread in which the thing you're complaining about almost doesn't apply? Just to be contrarian? You weren't making a clear point precisely for the fact that you didn't specify.

 

 

"3. Spoilers. I hate them all. I wish R* would make a small lip available for every model. That way, you could still gain the benefit of GTA physics without some audacious wing sticking out the back like an eyesore."
"No. I'm complaining about something very specific. Something that has bothered me since the onset of GTA 5. The spoilers."
Dude. I don't know what your problem is. I don't know how you got confused by this and I don't care. First you say "that is how it works" referring to the necessity of a spoiler. Then you say it doesn't require one. Then you say that I'm complaining about something that almost doesn't apply. It either does or it doesn't. The spoiler either effects the car's handling or it doesn't. If the spoiler has no effect on the Specter custom, then great. I'll gladly take it off. I haven't seen any specific update notes from R* pertaining to this. I would love to know, though, if there are and precisely what they say.
So here it is again. The spoilers. I don't like them. Specifically what? All the spoilers in GTA. That's what I originally said and that's what I'll repeat just for you since your having trouble with this. It just so happens to include the Specter because that's what this thread is about. You want to argue silly semantics over what "specify" means? Go ahead. Have fun with that.
Another issue you are now having is why I came to this thread. Because I like this car and wanted to join in on the conversation. The comment on the spoilers was a side note, like my other dislikes. Not "the thing" that is the main purpose. Sorry that you got so derailed by this one little aspect. Hopefully, this ends this stupid conversation over nothing. I hate repeating myself so end it here.

Went with two similar colors with both my custom and regular version.

 

Clearly the non-custom is James Bond inspired.

I copied your custom version, i'm so sorry. It looks fantastic.

 

no i'm not sorry actually.

You do not need spoilers on any of the customs after stunts released, or generally cars that have downforce. I think they still work on the old cars like banshee 900, sultan rs, and the saber custom. I like spoilers but I agree with you on the Benny's cars, they're too far out for my taste but luckily you can skip em. Very disappointed with the options on the comet retro as well.

this car is soo beautiful ! so I decided to buy the custom version (only 180k for the upgrade !!! )

it performs pretty well but it s clear that it isn t the fastest , it slides a bit (well it s a 2WD) ...i really wish that R* patches the new custom versions , yeah the downforce multiplicator is working in high speed corners but still , those custom cars need more downforce in the "ordinary" corners , like what a normal spoiler could provide .....

I immediately knew which colour this specter custom needs ( dark steel with blue-silver pearlescent ) , secondary is speed yellow which goes very well with the livery :) wasn´t sure about the interior , I hope there isn´t "too much yellow" there !

BTW : for those who want to change the wheels colour , because iFruit keeps on crashing now : just change wheels , change colours, then back to stock wheels , then change the session ....

hope you like it :
