Read the rest on the MBWorld homepage. >>
I want those where did you get them from?

did you overprocess the pics- the color appears a blend between orange and red?

yep, not very flattering, but whatever......it's a free country...


are those P40SC's on your cls? the black ones? did you get two sets of wheels from PP?
thought you did for some reason; I'm still waiting to hear back from HRE about the M303's for my S class.......it's a multispoke


also trying to decide what color to paint my P40sc's as they are sitting at HRE waiting

Yeah it's unfortunate, but what really counts is what makes you happy.

As far as the wheels, they are P40SCs. I kick myself everyday that I didn't jump on the offer he gave for the S101s, but I'll pick up some new ones when I return from South Korea.

yes, the S101 really grew on me....so thin, but yet so muscular...and then it seems like every company came out with one similar....

I've really been digging the red wheels a lot.......the contrast is so nice and they pop so much in the sunlight......Pertplus had that color on one of his cars.......a grey Pcar if I recall......and that color looked great against the red's....
my p40sc's are coming back a brushed dark clear, and I also ordered some M303's in tint brush clear for my S
evidently the build time is only 4 weeks


south Korea huh? maybe you'll post some scenic pix

Yeah, I'll be sure to post pics while I'm over there. The last time I was stationed over there was 14 years ago so a lot has changed since then.

Sorry I missed ya hyperion, we do have a pretty solid selection right now. If you like Cayennes thats is..........

C&C has been doing pretty well at the Raleigh Grande theater for the last few months, its every third Saturday IIRC

The CLS is doing well, Ive only put about 300 miles on it since purchase back in June, unfortunately it has sprung an oil leak that I will have Curt tend to eventually, i think its an oil pan gasket possibly. Reminds me with these cooler temps I should probably exercise her a bit.

Still looking forward to the next round of mods, these things are addicting.

Red face not the color I'd imagined

P41's are back again, again......again......coupled with a brand new set of meats: 255 and rear 305 PS2, Michelin's.
I've lost track of the number of colors...


this is supposed to be a custom color :500 per wheel: Battleship Grey....
does anyone see blue or grey?


pix anyway:

I see more blue than grey. Thus I'll call it greyish blue.

as do I, the grey is not really evident in pictures that I've taken.......it wasn't the color I was expecting, but after two months I'm tired of waiting for my 41's lol....
they are a very different color though.....I kinda like it

It's a nice color bro... Silver calipers and clear taillights would look killer with those wheels.

might not be grey
I figured it wouldn't be tough to mix some black and white, but hey......live and learn, HRE did tell me they shopped out for the paint to be done in this shade........I liked the other blue better, but these will do for a bit,
