Agreed. They are much nicer looking than the ugly plastic things that come stock. Guess I'll be picking those up day one. Please share a part #?

Are you going to black out the badges? Maybe you don't need them at all... "You don't need no stinkin' badges!"

The part number for the center caps are B66470200. If you plan on keeping the stock 5 Spoke Wheels; it's worth the upgrade.

Very nice JP! She looks beautiful. I actually saw Iridium on a regular W205 for the first time few days back and I REALLY liked the color. I was never a silver fan until now. Possibly my favorite color on this car.

True, silver iridium looks great and it was one of the two colors I was down too. Originally I was stuck between Iridium and Palladium but I saw a Polar white with the NSP and the black spoiler and my jaw just dropped 4 feet.

Agree, with the NSP and black spoiler (and black wheels), I feel that Polar White (and Diamond White) is stunning!

Polar White and Iridium would be my top two choices for this car. In the end, due to the heavy contrast to the black parts and no cost paint, I would probably go with a Polar White C63S, NSP, Black Wheels, black spoiler as my final build.

So today was detail day! I will explain what I did and hopefully this maybe beneficial to some of you. New Car Prep is extremely important especially if you plan on installing a clear bra. I have been detailing cars for years so this isn't new to me. However, I had a blast detailing this beast. I highly recommend everyone to clear bra there NSP components.



I used Sonax Wheel Cleaned along with Adams All Purpose cleaner on the tires. Sonax doesn't smell great but it does turn purple it's working. You can use a hard bristle brush to clean the tires. On a weekly basis I would just use Car Wash Soap & water; not Sonax.

First foam bath used a Chemical Guys Citrus Bath. This removes all the excess wax




2nd Foam Bath was with Adam's Car Wash (Blue Soap).




Iron Out was used to make the claying portion a lot easier.

Menzerna SF 400 was the compound used & SG 4000 was the polished used. All of the machine I use are Rupes.

All of the NSP components needed A LOT of TLC.








All done...

That is what my W205 will look like.

Absolutely, positively stunning. Great job on the detail, too.
