I just wish I knew a good place to get Tapsilog in SD. I'll hit up my homeboy and see if he knows a good place in D'ego that's open early.

No more jokes today. Just found out one of our VP's in our department passed away.

Nah, for real, this lady taught me the little nuances of the business that I didn't have much experience with.
Within the brief time I worked with her, she basically taught me everything she had learned the past 30-40 years she's been in the business and was such a nice lady.

No teaser this time. Stopping Power Anyone? 030 FTW
So, I've gone and spent more meaningless money on making my driving experience safe for me and for others...
But I don't care. It was well worth the money.
I think it's safe to say that my car can stop on a dime even more-so now thanks to Pshek and TWS!
030 SLK 55 AMG / CLK 63 AMG Performance Brake Upgrade on a w203:
![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v351/drexappeal/Benz%20-%20Drexappeal%20s%20Full%20Car%20Pics/030BrakeUpgrade.jpg)
My 19's w/ the color match centers make these brakes look kinda small even though they're not (no Frank and flip, I am not gonna go down to 19's!)
Light goes away earlier nowadays so no crazy photoshoots w/ the w203 modding fanatics again,
, but I do have this pic w/ Frank's car.

I think it's safe to say that I did my research right and left the perfect amount of room for a BBK upgrade, with the offset of my rims. No clearance issues what-so-ever!
