Thanks much! Contemplating doing the project that a few accomplished (yourself included) w/ the colored bi-x shroud, but not 100% on it yet, just cuz the chrome kinda off-sets all the other color matched things I have going. We'll see what happens and IF I decide to stick with the budget I've alloted for myself.

The front looks terrific; it posseses an understated Brabus-like look while likely offering maximum utility.

Continuing to the side, the side skirts are simple and straight. It incorporates the side gill without making it look too ostentatious, a complaint sometimes associated with Lorinser.

I'd get out of the way if I saw any car with quadruple fog-lamps in my rear view mirror.

Nah, that was just off topic conversation. I love the SLK front bumper though, but not sure it looks like it.

For the price I paid to get it here and be the only one in NA, I hope so, but thanks much. Definitely was worth the wait.

Hahaha...Thanks, patrick. Definitely like how everything is subtle, but aggressive at the same time.

Yessir!

I gotta give Sander a call soon, so he can prepare. Only thing is, the downtime is gonna kill me if it took them that long.

Looks great man.

I think I need to join the quad fog light bandwagon.
