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.

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
