Looks really nice.

Where did you get the neat plate adapter? Thats really unique. Would be neat if when you parked the Cali plate disappeared in to the trunk.

Nice ride!!

Frank I must say I'm not the biggest fan of the double plate combo. I think it takes away from one of the best back ends on a W203 on this board. You can get Forza Motorsports2 Video game and race the Ring as much as you like, even in a C32 AMG! they got that car in the game. If your into games its very addicting.

I agree with the double plate, but you gotta keep it legal somehow. lol

i do have Forza2. played that game to death. the only single player mode i didn't finish was the endurance races. I have almost everything on BBS RE in the game. LOL

I'm gonna figure out a way to get the bottom part of the CA plate lines up with the Euro frame and then black out the bottom part of the CA plate so that from a distance you only see one continues line.

kind of like this...see how jose has his plate frame lined up

I was going to say I thought those BBS's were in the game. I cant get the C32 handle all that well, and the CLK55 with the SLR motor swap is just useless. Its all about my cayman Sclass 998, but every one has one of those. in fact i think im going to get a beer and go play

off-topic, but here's what I use to tune the suspension in Forza2 http://www.ondaground.net/flash/fm2/

I've tried a lot of cars, so far the fastest thing I've created is a F40 with a F1 style paint scheme. There are other cars in the game that are equally fast or faster, but I felt the F40 had the best handling characteristic to my liking after tuning.

the dream of driving the Nurburgring can be achieved by flying to Germany and renting a 335i or BoxsterS for around $300 for the day and $25 per lap.
Do a search on google and you will come up with cool scenarios.

I just spoke to Brandon and we're luckily doing a run of 5 intercoolers, with Spearco cores, which will be available in a week or so. Sit tight for a little and we will definitely update everyone the second they're available.

Sincerely,

Wrong part, but maybe that will lead to the H/E as well?

I hope you're doing well, Frank!

We're going to have the heat exchangers and intercoolers available in about a week. Our shipment of Spearco cores unfortunately took a little longer than expected, but had arrived last week. I'll be sure to update you when the units are fabricated and available.

Frank - I'm a big fan of your car. Really like the fat tires and the small details here and there.

However, I never understood the teddy bears... I always see some sort of pokemon hanging somewhere in your pictures... care to elaborate?
