Hmmm... this doesn't seem to work. So if I set my Individual setting while driving and shut the car off and turn it back on, it always defaults back to Comfort mode. Is that right? I.e. - I want it to default to Individual mode and it doesn't.

You can set up Ind. and after a start just push up one and it is where you want it.

Man that looks Awesome and what I want too!
What's funny is, I look at where the spoiler is manufactured "Australia" but no Aussie website search will bloody sell the OEM Carbon Fibre spoiler!!!
As you might read by my tone, I'm from Australia. G'day mate!
Cheers,
Ray

Damn..... Sorry all, I'm such a douchebag!!!
Got excited and read it as Australia and not Austria!
Thanks for pointing that out RHRAUS.... Now I feel better knowing it wasn't Australian made! Haha

Man, a build thread and no mention of your master installer?
I have to say i am slightly saddened by that. However those rolling shots came out great though! and the cars looking good.
To answer the question above, yes the spoiler is held down by 3m tape which is more then enough especially for a spoiler of that size.

You really have an incredible car. Amazing build so far, I can't wait to see what you do with it.
How much is it for the carbon spoiler? I think it would look real sharp on my white C

Thank you. The spoiler I ordered from the factory. It was $750 from the factory and I believe its over $1,400 through your parts department.

I was just at my parts department and they told me the spoiler would be $1,600.
I did order my AMG badge though, they only come in chrome at this dealer. Did you order aftermarket badges to get them in black?

So...I finally decided to mount the snow tires. We have had some usually higher than normal temperatures in the Northeast part of the US. I went with a square setup all the way around. So here is my overall impressions so far.
1) Ride quality is improved. The wheels/tires take bumps better and overall has a much smoother ride.
2) The Pirelli's in rain are very impressive. They hold the road better then the Alpin III's I had in the past.
3) Once the car hits 80-90 MPH; you can tell you are driving on snows. LOL I mean in reference to the noise and steering feel.

Can you take a pic from the back so that we can see how narrow the rear tires look? It's hard to tell with the current pic although it seems to look good with reference to the fender.
Thanks for posting!

I love following your build thread. I really like the look of these wheels
Tell me though, where did you get the black badges? I saw the black center caps on eBay and bought a set after seeing them on your car.

I had the badges done at iND Distribution. However, any good body shop can paint them. I appreciate your compliment on my thread.
