Nice, I wish they had the red interior in the states; did u make any mods? Or is that just the amg package

Dr-Nab · 04-07-2011, 09:08 AM

thanks, yeah I've had new 19s and had the brabus D6 upgrade, it's a sport model which adds the AMG kit, upgraded brakes, suspension, alloys etc

PGT · 04-07-2011, 10:08 AM

what wheels? what's the D6 upgrade?

gavrocool · 04-08-2011, 03:09 AM

Nice car bro,but i think a 10mm spacer in the rear(MY OPINION).

gavrocool · 04-08-2011, 03:10 AM

PGT here you can find the D6 upgrade.

Dr-Nab · 04-08-2011, 06:23 AM

Thanks guys.. do you really think so gavrocool? I've got 3mm spacers anyway because the rims wouldn't clear the calipers on the rear.. i think 10mm would make it look like a rollerskate?

gavrocool · 04-08-2011, 10:07 AM

Then try at least 5mm.

gavrocool · 04-08-2011, 10:08 AM

I really like the Brabus emblems and the D6 one.

gavrocool · 04-08-2011, 10:10 AM

I will post soon my pictures with the new summer wheels,the old ones don't have clearance in the rear since i have installed my BBK and i ordered new wheels.Your pictures are great.

Dr-Nab · 04-10-2011, 02:21 AM

thanks man, I will leave it at 3mm for now, might change to 5mm in a couple of months do think the rear could be a little wider in stance.

dynamic500e · 04-11-2011, 03:59 PM

Wow looks awesome

Dr-Nab · 04-11-2011, 04:46 PM

thanks man

mikey08 · 04-11-2011, 06:31 PM

Sweet!!!!

gavrocool · 04-12-2011, 06:30 AM

I think you should show us some pictures with the roof down.

Dr-Nab · 04-14-2011, 06:22 AM

couple more with the roof down then!

Svaniis · 04-14-2011, 06:33 AM

I think this would lift your car up a notch!

Dr-Nab · 04-14-2011, 07:21 AM

thanks for the link, been looking for somewhere other than fleabay to get one of those grills!

olszowa12 · 04-14-2011, 09:01 AM

Great mods! Not a fan of the polished lip on the wheels but other than that great choice.
Are you planning to lower it?

EDIT:
What wheels are those? They have only 15 spokes and a polished lip. I haven't seen these before.

Dr-Nab · 04-14-2011, 09:23 AM

Thanks, yeah I might lower it, looks higher in the pics than it suggests because of the incline that the car is sat on. Just ordered the black grill, I was going to have some HRE P40 19s but decided against them, may well change the wheels next year anyway!

Baldy56 · 04-14-2011, 09:52 AM

I ordered the 55Tech grill last week and it showed up yesterday. Of course I had to drop everything and go install it.

Installation was pretty easy except for the section that attaches to the hood. There is a felt gasket that needs to be trimmed to get the best fit. I'm still not entirely happy with the fit but I plan on tweaking it this weekend.

I'll post more pics next week after I have it detailed...

Dr-Nab · 04-14-2011, 09:55 AM

nice one thanks for that pic, looks very nice on your car, very stealth!

I've arranged for my grill to be delivered to work so I can see me leaving early that day to get it fitted

calbear550 · 04-15-2011, 12:59 AM

hey dr nab, i'll shoot some pics over to you later when i get a chance to snap some better quality ones...it'll maybe help you decide on wheel choice, size, and if you should/need to lower it.

Dr-Nab · 04-15-2011, 05:42 AM

cool thanks, I'm thinking I do need to lower it but yeah if you get some pics up it will help me decide

gavrocool · 04-15-2011, 02:17 PM

I ordered myself this grill.http://www.mecdesign.de/new/en/gallery/gallery_w207.php
