Actually I am going to black out the star, I like having it on the trunk.

As for the AMG, I have a factory badge already. going to black that out too, but not sure if I will put it on.

I see how it is Eric, reserve a spot for you and Alon but not for me.

Alon, just black out the emblems and it'll look hot. Just like what Mike did with his W210.

Alon, a nicer 124 I have never seen! I'am glad you left the silver trim along the side. I remember once you gave some thought to removing it, but it plays well with the polished lip on the rims. You've got the right idea; blackout that AMG badge & put it on.

They do excellent work, and have all the tools to do pretty much anything. they can make custom panels and everything too.

Nicely done! Luv your personalized license plate too.
However, why do you still put a CA and a EURO plate in the front? IMO, it would be one or the other. Either you be a law abiding citizen with a front CA plate or take the risk of getting a ticket with a EURO.

yeah I don't want tickets. the euro plate is permanently attached, so ca plate went on top...

I'll remove it sooner or later, just gotta wait a bit...

Paintjob cost probably around $4,000 - $7,000 I am not sure. I only know that I paid my deductible...

That's just beautiful Alon... unbelievably nice.

I didn't follow the development of your car, before I knew it, it looked like a Hammer. Good job! Especially fittin those Et28 wheels!
