Now you need an updated sig! Looks great. Are you keeping those rims or are you looking into others? I remember mention of LMs

Yes, I was going to get 18" LM's but the deal didn't go through and they came in a different color than I wanted (and yes I know they could of been painted). I finally realized that it would be better to go with a more open faced wheel since I have the BBK's in the front. Thinking of saving up money and get HRE's or DPE's unless I can get these Brabus Monoblock III's multipiece for a good deal that I've found.

I have hammer wheels well only two now but they won't clear my front brakes anyways. Those are for sell by the way.

I MIGHT do the side markers but they will either be clear or smoked. Not going to bother smoking the headlights since I want a little contrast with the car. I'm in the process of painting all the other chrome pieces black as well.

IMO, amber anything looks good on only 86-93 W124's only.

Chris, I don't think you need to do anything else to the exterior, unless you swap out for different rims. I like them as is, but it sounds like you have plans to change them out.

Neanderthal, that's just harsh dude! I wish they had an emoticon that had a parade of emoticons with one off to the side peeing on the parade cuz I think that would apply. lol

I'm pretty set with the Exterior for now - All I need to do is color match the grill, paint and install my Ducktail and black out the window trims and get my hands on a euro passenger side mirror to match the driver. Then Wheels!

and you know Pete ... Can't please everything.

Benard, Sorry I missed out on you at the TJ meet. I was having lunch when my friend came up to me and said you were looking for me. Always next time! Your W140 is looking sharp!

Looks good. All you need now is a filler plate and the AMG badge on the lip.

Word!

I need to pick up that filler plate sometime this week. I ordered it but haven't got a chance to pick it up.

I'm thinking about putting the AMG badge on the front lip but then again I don't want to lose it somehow/someway and never being able to replace it.
