The car looks amazing. And certainly appreciate all the work that is required to get it where it is.
I wish we didn't have to run a front plate in Ontario, as the front looks so clean with the insert.
A couple of personal comments, I'm Not a big fan of the rain guards, as I prefer the cleaner lines without them, and also I think I would have gone for full Carbon console (like the attached). You certainly have inspired all of us though, and I had forgot how badly I wanted to find a carbon source when I 1st got my car last year, to do the interior. Hopefully by the summer I can get that done.

oddly, I really liike the look of the lower portion (around the shifter plate) of the console being done in CF. I definitely do not like the upper portion however. I agree with Mark that it looks far too busy to my eye. Again, I bet it looks better in person though.

That's the best-looking projector install i've seen on a 124.
That third pic is really well done... you seem to have a good eye for photography! And again, I can't get past how much better your car looks with this new grille setup.

So do I, mine are original from the car's manufacture! (rotors, pads have been replaced lol), but Im not getting crazy big brake kits or anything. In fact, they still have not been replaced due to a few reasons. I cant wait to see what brakes you finally go with!

ZorroAMG. How do I get a car like that??? I'll trade you .
But seriously, I love the look of the car and wish I had one that looked like that? I don't know much of the older E's. What model did you start out with?
