well your rite about the $$ ive spent i could have gotten a c63, but honestly buying this car was just a spur of the moment thing, and spending all the $$ i did on it was nothing i had planned, just did a few things at 1st than it became addicting.. and even if i had a c63 id still end up "modding" that

Bro if you could find the name it will be great so i can call them and ask them? Also since you did your door trims, you don't think you can do the roof lol...What kind of springs do you have on your car and if you don't mind how much did they cost you?
