Chris,
thanks for the PM. I would have never seen this thread, had you not pointed me to it.
The OG AMG Aero I Hammer rims looks definitely awesome !!!
Can't wait to see 'em on the 15th !
For those RIMS what diameter center caps do you need ? 3" ?
You know what would look good, is the Mercedes-Benz Laurel center caps, but in BLACK, instead of BLUE. Don't know if they make 'em in 3" but that would be total sweetness.
Congrats man ! Looks great !

If those don't fit then try these and you can grind them down to be flat and paint them. just go to a toyota dealer or salvage yard!! They are 2.5"

I think those center caps I found go to these old school AMG Penta's.

Old school Lorinser wheels anyone?

I saw a set of pentas for 100 bones a while back, I knew there was something special about them but didn't bother to look into it. Oh, well. They were onlyl 15's anyways.

Chris,
I saw a pic of a white W124 2 toned (Top all white, bottom all gray...including the bumpers). IMO it doesn't look that bad. I'd perfer the all monotone, but I guess you could go this route, then when you get tired of it, monotone the car.
Here is the guy's website: http://www.tom.actionfit.com/

jrmd01,
I believe the newer model W124's had the bumper impact strips painted to match the bumpers. I might do that or just color match them white to match the car. Although, I kind of like the two-tone look right now.
Updated picture.

ChrisD,
Nice wheels man! As a matter of fact they are the BEST!!! hahahaha
I have the same wheels. I have a little rash on all of them. Anyone know of a place to have them fixed in the Houston, Texas area? I would like someone that does really good work. Nothing bothers me more than half a$$ shotty work.
I am trying to get my car finished. Should have it all done by January. AMG kit, Hammer wheels (hopefully fixed), and tunes.
Thanks for any help guys,
Andy

eandytemp,
awesome that you have the same wheels. I guess you can join the club along with me and Ashman though he has the black finished Hammer's. Too bad you don't live in Socal, I would refer you to this place where they do excellent work.
So you just got your hands on a AMG GenII kit right? how did you manage to get it?
Wait, are you the guy from Texas who bought the set of Hammer's on ebay back in May/June from a seller who had two sets?

Hey Chris D,
When I bought my car it had the rear bumper and the side skirts already. I have been on the junt for the new bumper for quite some time. I did buy my wheels on Ebay but not from that guy. The are in very good condition except for the slight curb rash. Do you have a link to Ashman's car with those wheels? I would like to see pictures of his car with them on.
