8.5 x 18 inch front and 10 x 18 inch rear 2 piece AMG wheels. Built by BBS, they were optional on the R129 SL. They bolt right on and do not rub.

I personally enjoy taking out the cup holder insert for the center console. No drinks in my ride. Cars are for driving.

Edit: We did chat about not using an automatic wash in the future. I have no qualms about getting out the bucket myself. As I do regularly.

Every bit counts. Has anyone tried putting the antenna somewhere a little more discreet? I do not use the audio system at all (with that engine who would?) but the misses does drive it time to time, and the antenna recently broke when she took it through an automatic wash. I'm indifferent as I'd just shave the whole thing off, and patch the roof. But in the interest of keeping the functionality has anyone tinkered with that?

2001 CLK 55 AMG.......... 2001 Corvette Z06.........
So far:
Looks: replace that crappy grille and hood ornament(so 1970's). I counted them as one mod.
Performance: gutting all 4 cats
To come:
Looks: I will thoroughly enjoy removing those crappy starfish wheels and going with a custom dual exhaust setup.
Perf: a ecu reflash and something else I'm not gonna mention yet until I have them. >:-)
