Well, that appears to be a homologatin of numerous shots of the R8. Which ones are relevant is difficult to tell.
One set looks like the carbon fibre and the other set looks like the oxygen silver.

Definately two sets of photos that you would need to review in person.

Isn't it the standard one that comes with grey paint?

Default Looks like a custom painted Daytona Grey blade

Painting the blades every six months is a really cool feature on this car. Change the look for a few hundred dollars. Maybe do one side different than the other - who would ever know! Could probably even do a wrap without any downtime.

Default It could be Oxygen Silver.

Thats what they call it on the Audi website. If you go to the Audi worldwide website and enter the R8 microsite there is a section there tht shows a range of different sideblades.

Oxygen silver looks really good, but it I were ordering an R8 I would get a silver exterior with carbon atlas sideblades, black leather interior with white stitching and the carbon atlas interior inlays.

I wonder as well, are the full LED headlights available for order yet?

Default That's the standard silver color. I know, I own it.

I own that exact color combination. That's the standard silver side blade when you order a silver car.

Agree with Bluehinder and sparkhill - Ice Silver Metalic with Appollo Silver blade
