No sir. The AMG reps I just took off don't have a scratch on them. I guess I just get bored quick. Having to switch the setup every 6 months doesn't help either.

I think it's going to be tough for you to go back to the reps after having the black wheels on the car, they really flow with all the CF accents dude.
