For the spoiler, I paid a little under $1200 from Eric. Best price I could find!
Yep that's on the list
Just trying to find time to do it. I'm going to Plastidip them.

Few updates:
Managed to find some time to finally paint the side markers
Scuffed them up a bit with sandpaper, primered then painted.
I love how simple it is to take these off. On my SLK350 I had to pull the fender liner and go under the bumper.
I also painted the middle section of the bumper black.
Kept it for a few days but decided to take it off since it didn't really flow well.
Next update:
H&R Sports springs installed! The pic above is with the springs installed. I still have a two finger gap, but it should settle (I hope
).
The back end though makes me happy. #3 pads are installed but I may go with #1 to tuck in the wheel a bit.
Sits sortaflush against the fender. I can push it out more, but I would have to go with a skinnier tire.
I'm going to wait for the springs to settle before getting any professional shots done.

Still worries me that 3m won't hold at high speeds...also how does it look when taken off?...leaves a residue that can be undone or it's pretty permanent?....
Looks great disco and I'm still digging those Mandrus'
