Just as promised picked up the rest of my stuff from paint tonight. I took some pics while I was there since its late and I gotta say I can't believe how well the taillights turned out (if anyone needs them done let me know I got a guy that does a amazing job) The grille looks great too all the parts look good and can't wait for them to come together on the car. My wheels and calipers should have gone out today to powder coating, there was a slight delay due to the Lambo Orange being on order but now its moving along. The tail lights are not too dark and not too light they are perfect in every way I think they will make the car stand out even better.
Here are some pics of the parts

The SL looks amazing, very well done.
The seals (you need 2 off each for both sides):
A 001 421 00 86 (front caliper)
A 000 421 74 86 (rear caliper)
Following stuff is optional but I've still ordered it.
Springs:
A 000 421 90 91 (front caliper)
A 000 421 87 91 (rear caliper)
Pins:
A 000 420 27 82 (front caliper)
A 000 420 28 82 (rear caliper)
Bleed valves:
A 000 421 47 65 (rear caliper)
A 000 420 90 55 (rear caliper)

For the seals, do you need to order 2 sets or 4 sets per axle?

A little off topic but while my other car is in the shop and I'm waiting on powder coat stuff to come back, I put together my new wheel setup on the W221. These wheels are 20x10 ET 40 all around. I had to use a 15mm spacer up front and 20mm in rear for the car to sit right.
Lowered using lowering links. I actually lowered the front a bit more after this pic was taken.

Love cleaning Black cars 
lol I hate it man I have a monthly pass for the S for a hand wash locally by work and the CL I take in from time to time and wash it myself. My buddy Chris will be doing a full buff job on the CL once it is out of the shop and than off to the photo shoot. Cant wait.

I know exactly what you mean, and I love white on Benzes but when I was buying I went after the best deal and of course it was not on the white ones.

Pulled the trigger on the intercoolers as well yesterday. Now I have to just decide what color I want them to be. Again my entire car will be black witch carbon fiber lip an rear spoiler, brakes will be Lambo Orange. I wanted the coolers in lambo orange as well to keep color scheme going but Im also considering going Gloss Black or Charcoal. What do you guys think? I have to let Speedriven know asap so that my car does not get held up.
Thanks
Kamil
