Hi all!

I'm a newbie MB owner from Scotland!

Joining for hints/tips to put my individual spin on the car, and hopefully make some friends in the process.

After owning cars which are fairly easy to buy aftermarket parts for, I'm beginning to think It might be more of a challenge with the MB.

Regards
FUE

Thanks very much.

Hopefully have some decent pics up soon.

Not really put much thought into what direction I'm taking with the styling at the moment, but I'm on a budget so probably gonna be trying to keep it subtle and stylish and maybe some DIY mods.
