E, and you think I would stop now after this ish! Next mods are back to focus on performance again...Your favorite!...LOL. It's for my own safety (Well, at least that's how I justify it in my head). It's fun to go fast, but always gotta make sure you can stop too!...

Also gotta fix up my alignment with some parts that have been waiting to get installed for 1 month now.

And also gonna get the tuning finally finished!

So many things to do, so little time. Service B is coming up soon as well.

Yup. That's what people would normally do. I wanted it to look different and I love the quad yellow. Visibility is trememndous! If I do that in the future, it would be HID on the outside and yellow on the inside.

For now, I'm very happy with it.

nah, just telling you it's not as easy to use then point-click, but once the picture comes out it's well worth it. it's fun to play with as well. i'm still learning about it all the time. check out www.dpreview.com

Thanks, pshek! Hey, if I can't be as fast as you or Frank or any of the AMG'ers, might as well look nice I'm just happy my car is starting to become one of the most unique on the street. So many w203's now, I was hating the fact that I was still running the stock body kit, cuz (aside from the color) everybody has a w203...LOL.

Robert, I definitely love the visibility with them on. Just don't use quad fog setup 24/7. It is a sure-fire way to get a ticket if I rolled with all of them on all the time.

That being said, they definitely need to be aimed. The hot spots on all 4 are WAY off! I'll probably do that this weekend.
