I look for AMG badges so I can laugh and laugh. Then I post a picture of it on the forums and we all laugh and make fun of the owner. It makes me feel really good inside.

Probably the easiest DIY mod I did and made a big difference on the Iridium Silver. Can search around on Ebay (previous posts).

I look at the mods (if any) and to see if it correlates to the driver.

Ah so you did it yourself huh? I don't know much about fixing cars..haha
But hey I will learn. I see the prices on ebay are up to 41.00 not bad.
So you have Iridium silver too?
any pics of it on your car because I want to see what it looks like before I decide to buy a pair.

i like the exterior, think u went overboard on the wood grain kit tho, the steering wheel, is what did it for me. some things dont have to be attached just b cuz they came wit the kit, but its ur car and ur entitled to do whatever u feel like doing!!!!!!

where u order ur kit anyway, looking for the carbon fiber, for mine. seen some on ebay, but wanna make sure they legit( like MC Hammer) before buying.

He has the Onyx kit. A quick Goggle search for wood dash kit should give a couple of E-tailers that sell it. I have the same kit in RBA (didn't do the steering wheel) quality is good all of the parts are laser cut. The "wood" kits are not wood but a photorealistic print the RBA and CF are real though. You might want to look for the B&I kit higher quality, less parts and about double the cost. There is also a CF kit that has turned up on E-bay in the last two weeks or so I don't know the quality but it will cover the existing metal dash/console parts on the sport.
