Looks great, I love the fading paint too.
The CF hood bulges make them look like they're pushing through the hood and exposing the CF, really badass.
Did you have the orange side markers removed, filled and resprayed or is that a Euro bumper?
Bravo!!
We need more pics, do you know anyone with a DSLR that could shoot the car? If you were in MA I'd offer to take some pics

EDIT: never mind, I read that the markers were shaved. What did they do with the bulbs, tape and tuck or remove?

They were taped and tucked somewhere inside the bumper. My brother has a DSLR I can get him to shoot pictures but MBworld has a limit on photo size you can post

I actually came across this during my search of the company and became skeptical so I called Mark and asked him directly. He explained that they were in production of the part (once they got the customer deposits) but they began having manufacturing delays so it took much longer than expected and they eventually just refunded everyone and scrapped the project. Not sure on your end but I PM'ed a few of those guys and they said they got their refunds so I felt comfortable and ordered it since this was the trunk I wanted. I personally had a great experience with them, I got the parts within a week after ordering and all of the parts were perfect!!

Cool, if you post the pics from photobucket, you should be fine, no?
Anyway, the car looks awesome--I would add some of the newer style mirrors wrapped in CF

BTW, any pics of the G55? I'm seriously thinking about adding one, I think they are so awesome and nothing like anything else on the road. And they seem to really hold their value in comparison to the rest of the AMG line up.
Kudos for having two sweet AMGs

How's the fitment on the hood and trunk?
I didn't install them but the trunk was perfect to what I was told. The hood was missing two pins (they were lost during the shipment) but Harry made it work!

Awesome, I want the OEM CF mirrors so bad, but they cost around $6000 for the pair--I haven't seen anyone with the aftermarket ones that Revosport sells and the CF covers sold by other vendors look crappy.
I would love to see the C & G together

Looks awesome Chris.

Harry showed me some of the pictures of your car when I was there getting my calipers painted and it looked great.

Very well done.

The hood looks amazing.
The shape of the spoiler isn't my style, but I love the carbon fiber effect.

woooow...beautiful. Love the fading paint job. Gorgeous. The integrated spoiler kinda reminded me of the 2007 Audi RS-4.

Very cool. That integrated spoiler is pretty slick. I wonder how much weight you just shed. Any idea?

Nice collection.
The trunk is not my style but still flows nicely into into the lines of the car.

Props
