C43 AMG with a tune up
Did you get yourself another genuine C55 imported from Japan?
In Japan they have lots of nice special AMG's which are better than european equivalents.
This car is it a genuine Carlsson vehicle or just decal pimping?

Does it have factory paint or custom re-paint?

What did you do to the exhaust system, end pipes are they Carlsson?
Looks interesting.

Do you have interior pics of dashboard and centre console.

Yeah mate, these 18" wheels are Really nice indeed,

they not bolt-on, i modified a bracket & cuts the edge of the calipers to fit them properly without touching wheels,,

cause i have custom (365x34) Rotors at Fronts, and (355x28) at Rears..

Those brakes are insane..love it! Might do a c55 front caliper/rotor set up on mine soon.Love the updated caliper look.Think the c55 route would be the less cost intrusive.

Thanks,

yeah, brakes are perfect upgrade on our dolls for sure,

those are (365x34) Fronts & (355x28) Rears, with custom brackets,,

my friend ordered them for me, he got a shop, and he got several brakes for many models..
