Finally, pics of my car...
Here are a few pics of my MB. My car goes in the shop next week for 6 days to have a rear carbon-fiber diffuser customized by es-sports in Gardena. They did a customized rear diffuser on my friends Audi S4, and it looks amazing! The diffuser is gonna run me around $1200. But believe me, its well worth the price.

I can't remove my front licence plate (California law wont allow it). Anyways, I have seen Teo's diffuser, and believe me, the diffuser I am getting makes Teo's look cheap. Remember guys, you get what you pay for? Teo's diffuser looks ok, but its not good quality stuff. I want a diffuser that looks OEM and not like an aftermarket stick-on. Its sort of like driving with replica wheels.

You can't remove it? lol ive never went by that law and never been pulled over for it. And my excuse is when i bought the car it only came with one. It was just a heads up the car looks a lot better without it.

I purchased the wheel from Euroteck Motorsports. The wheel is my favorite part of the car. It looks much better in person. It is thicker than the stock wheel with a much better grip.

Your a lucky man Kris. I've been pulled over before for not having a front license plate and its a hassle (and waste of time) getting the ticket fixed. What part of California do you live in? Cus in my part of town, the cops actually do work for their money...

It was $700 for the steering wheel. The HRE wheels ran me for $1250 a piece. My tints are factory. The rears look tinted but they are not. I just have factory OEM rear door sun-shade screens installed.

Thanks! I'm getting a Brabus cat-back exhaust system this weekend. Also, after my diffuser gets done next week, my next project is going to be a big-brake kit and black suede inserts for my seats.
