Looks good. If it were me, I would put the stock grille on and paint the inside of the headlights black. But overall it looks great man.

Is that an original AMG Gen I kit or an aftermarket replica?

thanks man
so far , with all i spent around 12 to 13 thousand, to get it that way,except the car it selfe,
the car was 3000$ got it at 95k with a salvage title, was hit in the back, and was poorley fixed, i had to change the back part of the car, as it can be seen on pics. but still have to spend couple of more thousands on interior.and afther that, whenever a good deal comes up for engine and trany , will do that also , but till than the 6 in line with 217 hp its enough.

Thanks!

The wheels are Carlsson 1/6 in 19" staggered 8.5" and 10".

You could probably fit them on your coupe if you find a set.
