Well sir, that is extremely impressive work! Just looking at the fine finishing detail on the cabin filter cover is quite impressive.

Dyno my friend, sorry for the thread jack, but we need to keep this thread fresh during your wait mate

Carlos my man, good to see you

I'm feeling for Wes I tell ya, I know what it's like to have a car sitting for months and months and months waiting for stuff to get done - I went through all that just after I bought mine. We all, as he does, know though that when he's got that beast back on the road not only is it going to be unique but it's going to be one of the top rated/talked about 209's on the MBWorld forum. As for me, I've been a little quiet because Ive been doing the usual - waiting... My stuff is supposed to ship from Kleemann to Dubai in a few days, over a month delayed.

So, until I have updates on my build I'm just trying to support other guys and assist while I can. Sure going to be awesome to have all three of us pounding boost soon

He'll be back pretty soon, spoke to him the other day, give him some time.

Until then, let's dust this off and clean it up for his return. Anyone got the number for Molly Maid?

Wes fell off, he needs to move his car to a Performance shop not a shop that mostly does body work and regular maintenance.

Smile Shout out from Wes

Just chatted with Wes, he's doing great and keeping busy with his new job. Some new ideas are being tried out on his car and hopefully there will be some good news soon.

Anyways, he wanted me to give everyone on the 209 a shout out for him, hopefully we'll see him around soon.
