Just LOVE it!! Dont paint it keep it as it is and dont paint the trunk also!! That is good weight saving for sure. You will see great difference on the track!! When weather clears up get those pictures! I cant wait to see them.

I agree. Paint the hood similar to BAD430BENZ, or maybe take it a step further and paint the little slopes on either side so that it would match up with the body color pieces on either side of the grill. (not talking about the two humps on the middle of the hood)

Your car is looking great, and I can't wait to see what you do next!

Here are some outside pics.








And my personal favorite:


Car weighs in this morning at 3740# with 1/4 tank of fuel and no driver. The cage is out also.
THANK YOU again for all your kind words. Hopefully we'll be at Sebring August 14th.

Holy shiettttt, that is awesome! The colour compliments it really well.
And I can't really tell, but the do the weaves of the carbon in the roof match the hood?
And I suppose next up is a carbon trunk? Damn, this thing is gonna fly! You need some 0-60, 0-100, 60-130, and 1/4 times!!

The car looks amazing! Very agressive and definitely fitting for the kind of power you're putting down with that beast! Congratz

.... One of the most brave if not the most brave AMG mods to date. I mean People have rebuilt perfectly fine motors, but who the heck has the ***** enough to cut up their roof? Fantastic job Keith, it looks stunning.

What I like!
Gorgeous. Fast. Looks right, done right. You have to be thrilled. That is one fine machine and an amazing project. I think the guys in Affalterbach will be watching! Best of luck at the track, can't wait to see the results.

is the weave is different on the hood and roof? 3700+lbs with only 1/4 tank and no driver! thats still one heavy car. you can still strip the interior, carpet, sound deading material (dry ice), trunk lining and spare tire
