all it is really is rubbing alcohol. i use it to get tree sap off of my paint.

Use a hair dryer set on high on the emblems...this will soften the underlying adhesive.
They should lift off fairly easily.

Yup, on older cars i don't really use the hair dryer because the glue is probably dry after 10+ years. On new cars you don't want the adhesive lift the clear coat or paint so a hair dryer is a must.

Look at this way...he may have lost a little brother, but he gained another Darth Vader wannabe....

I think you need to build "Enzo II " like you're considering...

Don't delay...world coming to an end in 2012 ( maybe not Canada ? ) or sooner

Haha, Dec 21st 2012 is just the end of the Mayan calendar cycle, nothing more.

Or maybe your referring to the polar shift due mid 2012?

Hey, can you do me a big favor... can you take measurements of your front bumper or rear bumpers? Maybe i can get a w202 kit fit a w124... I need to know how wide it is and how long it is...

Is this car bigger than the w124?

Definitely deleting the resonator will give you more sound, and it all depends on what headers you bought

Thanks!. Yes, it depends on the headers and it will be louder if you take the resonator off. On my mustang Try Y headers are wayyyy louder than headman headers with super 44 flowmasters. People complain when i turn my car on on sunday mornings so i kinda wait till noon to turn it on. You won't get that much HP gain anyways. It's better to get a pulley and chip to get extra HP.

I like it. Congrats!

I'm amazed that you can have 4 people in it with NO rubbing!!! what kind of suspension makes that possible??

Chris d spam is right - you should definitely source some center caps for those dpe's. They are nice wheels - I spent over $3500 for the set I had on one of my cars for a while.
