sup guys - not yet sorry. busier than I thought these holdiays..AND...I had to deal with my hood. It was repainted 6 months ago, and it started bubbling and peeling away from some new rock chips. Until a legal size peice of bare metal hood was exposed last week. My shop apologized and is going to repaint it under warranty, but I have to wait until sometime in january. So I spent some time painting it, sanding it, clear coating it just so I could still drive away for the next several weeks.

mod completed. I mocked it up with 3m di-noc first but it didn't look right. Looked too fake, exactly like it's a piece of vinyl stuck on. Which it is but you don't want it obvious. Problem is the lack of seams to tuck the edges so it looks like a manufactured piece. Tried matt black and it looks a lot better without seams - at least looks oem. I think the rear looks more aggresive now, but still subtle. Now I gotta figure out my quad exahust to make this look right. Gotta "let go" of the brabus tips.





And a shot out to the Yay....



Happy New Year all.

It looks much more aggressive, Low! It goes well with the CF tip on the spoiler. That last pic is awesome!

Good eye - they're bald on the outside but there's meat on the inside. I flipped the tires couple months ago. They probably only have a few more months though before I have to replace them.

Do the quad! Would look tight with the rest of your ride. I do think that your brabus kit would "flow" better with non-amg side skirts... just a thought... so you can trade me yours
