looking good kojan.
just a quick question are your side lights standard? they seem really blue in the pic.
The side light is standard, it's the photo effect (I didn't edit the photo, haha)
Was thinking about changing it....any suggestions? Coz standard is a bit yellow eh?

i agree iv got 8000k bi-xenons and compared to the side lights and DRLs they do seem a bit yellower.
i was told that you cant change the sidelight bulbs as they are rigged up to the DRLs or something.
dont know if thats right but if anyone has done it please let us know!!

I understand that you want to wait but with the tires you ordered you won,t have options to lower it.

Joao: amazing
Correct, this is the LED from SLS AMG I am going to install it on my Revozport carbon diffuser
But this is not the brake light, it has two functions: the fog light and the reverse light
The fog light will appear red LED and the reverse light will appear white LED
I will post the photo once it installed

Are you going to disconnect the rear fog built into the tail lights when you install that one?

Gav: I will post photo asap, lol
Caker: for mercedes, usually have two fog lights on each rear built-in tail light however only appears on one side depend on which country the car is and plus which side are you driving (according to the specialist here said so) the LED is there just didn't connect it thats all, some mercedes owners will connect it and make both tail light work the fog light but some people like it just one side as original
My place is left side driving so when i bought this red cabriolet only the left rear tail light works the fog light. It doesn't meant the right tail light doesn't work just didn't connect it thats all, and it could be connected but I am using it as my new fog LED light I showed on previous posts

Amazing car. I agree that a drop will set it off. I can't wait for more updates.
