Thank You car has a stop in Dent Solutions Plus to get buffed out and to cover all the chrime trim around windows and body with vinyl in gloss black. This will happen as soon as its all done at Speedriven. After that a photoshoot and pics will be posted up. I will keep up with pics as new things are done and finished.

Please post some pics on how you replaced the mirror turn signal.

kamilclk430

Have not replaced that just yet, Speedriven is doing it but I will check into how it comes off and goes back on.

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

Poor thing, this week it will slowly start to get put back together. Boy those tips are ugly, I think the new tips are the best thing I could have gotten lol

kamilclk430

Still waiting on parts from powder coating as soon as those are back car will start coming together. I should have everything back this coming week with more pics and updates

Alex. This is terrific information, thank you!

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

kamilclk430

You can also take all the stock parts apart and re use them in you want. Just to let you know.

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.

2 black benz's??? Must be a pain to keel clean

kamilclk430

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.

Black cars look sick when clean n detailed..I had one back in the day...I'd have it detailed and within minutes there's dust already on it and would look dirty...since I've gone with all white cars...

2 sets per axle. One seal kit goes for one caliper.

kamilclk430

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.

OCKlasse

Thank you!

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

IMO the orange would look out of place under the hood with nothing else that color. I'd go black.
