The only thing I plan to do otherwise, is get the windows tinted really soon. I'm thinking in the next month or so. And those wheels I talked about.

And when I repaint, I'm not sure to go with the factory color again, or a silver. But with the silver, I was planning on adding some blue maybe green pearl into the paint. I'll be doing it myself, so my options are endless..

Sorry to let you guys down, but I think i'm going to just repaint in the factory color. I got it matched and it is relatively cheaper than the silver with the pearl.

Thanks Boss.

fyi, the 190E vs the SRT4 is my friends car. Crazy swap though - the car definitely pulls but to be honest it did lose some of its handling characteristics. Anyways, the video is still on YouTube.

If you mean pictures of my old 300E, here...

Just because I have the money doesn't mean I want to go out and buy pretty expensive paint. I'm going to be selling the car in a few years anyway, so who cares. It will look just fine with a fresh coat of factory on it.
