That’s some nasty beautiful Ti discoloration you’ve got going on there.

Damn Frank, I really wanted to like the new tips, but unfortunately, I don't. I liked your last ones better. Although, you still have the hottest C-class sedan out there IMO

No doubt rareamg's car is hot. But, that is why my post had IMO with my statement. Because that it is my opinion. I still think Frank's is the hottest. Rareamg's car is hot, and has a very unique paint job. But, I have a real fetish for black cars, that is why Frank's is a notch above IMO
