Hey Guys,

Went out with some of the guys from HMS yesterday evening and did some shots down in Irvine at various locations. Props to my homie Auktane for the pictures.

Enjoy.

So clean. Don't do anything else to the exterior other than removing the sticker in the windshield... it's perfect.

Damn man, every shot looks amazing. The rolling shots look especially siiick.

Have you had any more paint work done recently? The rest of the car looks way cleaner than the last time I saw it.

Oh and whats up with the front signals?

PS: Miss you Phammy-Poo

Beautiful pictures Chris. You just reminded me why my father & I fell in love with the w124. It truly is a timeless classic, and has a presence that is just undeniable. I really hope to be able to bring my CE to a state in which it can finally shine like yours. Stunning pics, keep em up!

all he needs to change/remove to look like enzo is the brake kit, side skirts, rear bumper, trunk, hood, engine, bumper fogs, and wheels...

e-codes might look pretty sick on your car too. that contrast looks really good IMO. but really that's only something to do if you get bored of it being the way it is.

Chris, paint finish is fabulous! You sure got the V-8 guys on Ecstasy goin'.

I really like the 3/4 view of the car in front, while screaming down the street.

PM'd you last night.

great photoshoot as others have already mentioned. I think that the second pic would have worked better if your car was in the middle though... since both of their cars were silver with black rims it would just be more symmetrical

The first shot of the car in the underground parkade with the lights is by far my favourite. I'm not sure I've seen anything similar around the area with that configuration, but time to start scouting!
