You were so kind a while back to turn my gray to red on a front shot before the Wald Replica spoiler was installed.
Body parts now complete including the front plate delete panel...

No big rush, put me at the bottom of the list, but getting ready to contemplate painting and would like to see a more "modern" all red look !!

Thanks

I might be a "Mustachio Pete", but I hear what you "Young Lions" talk about !!!

If I can keep it "period" and it looks good monotone, then I might consider it...
After all AMG did it back then !!!

Per RBYCC's photoshop, I am still oddly partial to the two tone. It is factory two tone and looks different/unique.

No problemo!

Yeah I'm pretty awesome like that, figured fogs would be perfect. They are actually sections of your headlight that I "cut out" squished and re-sized and added a thin black border. Voila, instant fogs!
