M-benz i don't know how your cars inside is but the extrior is my best taste. Your colour rims and bumpers are awesome.
İ also love the kev's old (stock white sugar mood) but his taste changed the whole car by the way he loves it so its ok for him

Update pics, again

Well, went to go get the car tonight again and again, I left without it. The roof rails are now done but I noticed the vinyl on the front airdam wasn't covering all the white behind the grill, so they need to re-do that piece.

The real reason that I didn't drive it home tonight was because it was pouring rain (it happens here in the winter a few times a year) and I'm not supposed to get these wet for 24 hours until the new seal cures;



I also got a look at the interior trim wrapped in silver CF, I think I like it. The beauty of vinyl is you can play around with different colors and options before commiting with paint or CF, I'm pretty sure I'll have the trim done in actual silver CF now. Bad pic but looks so much better than the wood;



Also had the CF rear spoiler installed, it looks pretty good too. Next week it goes to the interior shop for a new shift boot and recovered shift knob.

lol! Fronts are flush flush flush, rears should be once the camber kit is installed, if not, I'll swap out the 10mm for 20mm.

Wow, this guy right here is jealous of your lights. I definitely need some more details and some pics showing the whole front when you get a chance.

I'll get lot's of pics this weekend as round one of the mods will be all done. I didn't get the diffuser or exhaust done yet, I'm waiting on parts. I have an appointment on Saturday at the Kleemann tuner/installer for some baseline dyno runs.

I'm actually having fun with a car again after all these years

you deff need another 10mm in the back at least. camber will only make it seem less aggressive because its going to push the top of your wheel inward. to give you an idea the wheels in my sig were +38 with a 25mm spacer (+13) offset on 9.5" and now i'm 3mm less at +10.

Thanks for the tip, I guess I'll be changing the 10mm out then.

I thought we both had the tan interior? Or do you mean black CF against tan? Black CF will look good too but because I'm switching out to the white gauges with the silver bezel and the silver shift paddles I figured I keep it light and bright inside. And thanks, it has changed a little everyday this week

Do you mean what method he used to pull apart the light? I just called him and he said he used a heat gun, takes 5 minutes to get the lens off.

Not enough contrast with the silver "cf" and the beige interior. I'd do traditional CF.
