Car is going in for major upgrades soon... Thinking of everything and anything to gather together to have it all installed at once.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to say thanks to all the people who helped me through the process of installing the AMG body kit on my car (letting me know which parts are needed, what to expect, etc.). Anyway, it's done but there are a few things missing so I'll post teaser pics for now, and more pics to come.
Only thing that I must say went wrong is: 1 - Lost my headlight washers (bumper didn't have holes and he couldn't cut them). 2 - Muffler tips did not fit. 3 - Tow hook cover from old bumper does not fit, so ordered a new one for $11 at Mercedes-Benz Manhattan (oh, Mercedes-Benz Larchmont was charging $91 for the same part!
) -- Just thought I'd put them on blast!

rlee02135 – Haha, I know, I should of. But I’m sure we’ll be doing business in the near future. Thanks.
advans - I’m from Westchester – New Rochelle to be exact. Yeah, I meet up with Mike last, last weekend – he helped me install my Illuminated Door Sills. We’ll probably meet up this weekend again so I can install a new muffler.
Ryanr317 – The body shop I used had a very strict policy, whereby if they messed up anything they offer to pay 100% of the damages. Therefore, he felt if he didn’t do it perfectly, he would have to buy me a new bumper, so he didn’t take chances.
FrankW – Yeah, I brought the bumper used – for real cheap! I actually thought cutting it would be easy – but then the other day I was talking to WaveyKat and realized I’ve never actually used my headlight washers.
Thanks guys. I'll post pics of the back, I'm just waiting for the little tow hook cover and my new exhaust so it's not quite complete. Also now I guess I can get the CF Lip for the front -- so I may have to go out and do that!
WaveyKat -- So you know after messing with the fog lights I woke up the next morning, went to my car, opened the door - stepped on clutch and turned the key....... and turned the key....
Battery dead.
