I used Lamin-X, which was awesome, because when I decided to change it I just scored the film with the outline and then peeled back what I didn't want. If I ever want to take it of completely, I can just peel it back. Who wants to try to sell a benz with black taillights?

Looking good Peabody. @ Strfry, I completely missed your mod! That looks sick, how did you do that?

Finally got around to blacking out the chrome molding around the door frame. Took about 3 hours of vinyl application, but it came out perfect.

JCTEVERE-

If you're talking about the LEDs near the side mirrors, I just simply used some LED strips through iJDM. If you'd like, I can send you some other pictures on whatever.

Yeah, I was talking about those LED's, haha. I can't believe I never referenced to it... Brain fart. Anyway, yea, if you do have any more pics (especially night time) I would love to see them.

How did you wire it, to the battery in the engine compartment or into the door lighting?

Alright everything is not done yet but here are some pics it the works

Notice the diffuser, I used the stock diffuser and just cut and sanded it down saved myself 300$. still need to paint it though. Tips are resonated and going quad with muffler delete. should notice a change in power as the muffler i assume weigh 30lbs each and better flowing exhaust.

This vid inspired it all! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXRLo0yEy1g

More pics once everything is up and running

dont wanna be negative or burst your bubble but the very little "change in power" you will get from a muffler delete will def not be noticable, and the car in the vid sounded crappy very raspy, like a civic.. sorry!

Im not looking for any power, i just noted that their would be a change in power mostly from the weight loss but also the flow. but i love the sound. similar to c63 but without the v8 of course.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlMgLh8NKkc Im more into this sound then anything

Yah it takes a few to grow on u :p but also i read the comments posted on the vid and he said after a while he added a muffler cause it was to loud. Im hoping the resonated tips will tone it done just a tad bit.

That suede you got going is gunna be sick! more pics plz!

What I did to my ride today (I will be doing later this afternoon at least):

Dropping her off at Mercedes-Benz headquarters and picking up a 2010 E-class coupe for the weekend! I'll be making a new youtube vid and everything, be sure to check it out ;-)... gotta drop it back off on monday and get my baby back though.

Cool

I got my windows wrapped in 15% tint. Decided to walk away from the reflective metallic to match the roof and side bars better.

For my two wheel ride I changed the plugs, oil and filter, air filter, fuel line, coolant and hoses and cleaned her up and waxed her well...five hours and I am dog tired.
