Some Recent pics

Hey all, I finally got around to taking a few pics of my car. I know the pics are pretty crappy and dark so i will try and take some better pics over the weekend.

I basically cahnged almost everything except the engine swap. I repainted my car back to black and changed out a few things such as a brabus front bumper, custom brabus style rear, brabus exhaust, brabus brakes and few other things. The Wheel Supply is working on making me a custom set of real brabus mono 6 with custom fatty lips. Ill have pics of the interior and system in a few days...

enjoy

so the car was black, baby blue, and then black?

how expensive is it to paint a WHOLE car? does the quality of the paint even hold after all those changes?

Whoa. Car looks totally different then before. Nice BBK. Do you like them more than the E55 BBK? Black paint really shows the swirl marks.

Dave, gotta take some daytime pics when you get a chance, but looks like it's even meaner looking with the Brabus front bumper.

Dave, saw your car and Frank's car at TWS. Went down there to give Sander some money.

Your car looks sick with the Brabus bumper and Rieger lip integrated! It's definitely one of a kind.

Looks very good! Apart from needing the wash

Wish there was half as much modified W203's here.

Hold it in "The O.C." next time and I can bring my Nikon dslsr and get some decent pics.

BTW, that car is in sad shape, needs to buffed out properly, not with compound unless you like to get your repainted. Those older MB's have very, very soft paint.. If you don't know how to do it yourself, take a free class from Meguiars in Irvine at www.meguiarsonline.com and tell Mike you are in desperate need of making your black car black again.....
