I've had sushi before - I really wanted to like it, but it was just gross to me.

Besides, that's the same thing you said about letting Ryan put his mouth on you.

And that IS

Took off all the parts.

I'll be shipping them out UPS since USPS is useless and I don't have any boxes to fit everything.

PM me your address again.

Chris, where did you get your Brabus door pins and how much did they cost? I saw these on eBay, but $27 shipped seems a little steep.

I won mine at a Mercedes GTG courtesy of TWS. They retail over $100+.

Make sure they are real! A lot of knock off brabus items on ebay these days. Comes in a little box but I really dont know why the shipping is so much ..

Yeah, Those look legit. Get them... It makes the interior look so much cleaner and when they are all closed it's almost impossible to pick them. haha thats why all my passengers are stuck.

They started to call my car the rapist car when I installed those door pins ...

Yeah, They're suppose to be a staggered set up but the front is the same as the rear ... So I won't be lowering it until I decide to put my hammers back on although I might switch out the spring pads.

This car handles like my 300E with the suspension mods!

Have you taken it out sprinting?



Had a question about the repaint... are you doing the whole exterior or just the cladding? I hadn't thought about it but I assume you'd have matching problems with the older paint?
