Not fond of the color but its grown on me and the car is what makes me love the ride, I think cause of the color the front doesn't pop to me but nice project.

Not an AMG :(
Great result!

I think the ram air hood looks quite good on the car, given its new aggressive look.

Who wants to do this next??
We need another color like Black, white, red, or silver to see how it will look??
My car is such an unusual color its difficult to gage the success.

Body shop can do the complete conversion in about a month once they acquire all the parts. Cheap option vs. the cost of the black series. If you are like me and had the car long enough to where its paid off this conversion was MUCH cheaper than a new one. Plus I didn't have to do all the mods all over again.

Someone, step up, come on.

You should wrap your car in a new color to get a feel for something new.

It'll be cheaper for you since you now have a coupe and no fabrication invloved. But not $5k cheap.

Melbourne, when are you doing the conversion? and have you sourced necessary parts yet?..I'm keen to get my hands on the parts but they have to be oem.
Let me know if you can give me a hand chasing them up?..

Exhaust

Keith, what exhaust did you have on it? I know it was from Modern Horsepower but does anyone know what you had to do to the 6.2L to get to sound like his?? Amazing sound and so sad to hear what happened.

I ran the MHP long tube headers without cats, without resonator, or muffs.
It was pretty much a 3" dual exhaust with the MHP "X" pipe. It was LOUD so be careful!
