tommy, that carbon fiber hood not only doesn't fit right, it makes you look like you're trying too hard. please, heed some of the advice from your peers, sometimes they're rude, but that's mostly because you're rude too.
i believe the reason why you are having to defend yourself all the time is that (imho) most of us here would agree that you're cheapening an otherwise elegant car. if you're gonna soup up your car, please do it with style (like alexbenz or some of these other cats with crazy money) or don't do it at all (if you can't afford to do it right). you're making the car look like it's made in China (no offense to asians, as i'm asian myself). but i'm serious, it's starting to look like it's made from a toy factory.
regards,

Hi Tommy,
Thanks for the pics, please contact me through msn or phone number. I gotta agree with some members that the c/f hood looks awkward in a silver car, but the c/f project is still in progress, I'm sure it will look much better after the projet is done. Anyways, nice to see some positive reviews in this thread. Thanks everyone!
Oh yea Tommy, no need to drill the insulator holes for me, I can take the hood from here. Just let me know when you are ready to send it over to me. Once again, thanks everyone!

Well I must thank you for posting pictures. You did confirm the fit and finish sucks maybe your not done? The other ones i have seen looked bad to ME too. Good Luck, we now know why they were so cheap.

Lest you forget
WHO STARTED the thread and whose remark"ok, gramps. now go somwhere eles with your station wagon and your collection of 80's and 90's spare parts."
tommyboy you never seem to get the chain of events correct do you?Lose a race,becomes win the race in your mind.Quality carbon fiber hood ,becomes an ill fitting piece of crap.120 mph street race ,becomes nothing more than a 70 mph pissing match between you and a teen buddy.
Perceive a pattern?
Last we heard from you was a lame *** utube video of that record breaking 9 second run from 45-80 mph.........Wow. With a promise to post more videos that night.
well?still waiting.
As to the hood,what a poor excuse for a hood,pity the chump that's spending the shipping cost to end up doing what you said you did a week ago,toss it out!
And since no one pointed it out,yet,how hard would it have been to lift that quality hood and posted a pic of your mystery motor?
Finally,since you are not even smart enough or clever enough to figure it out.
The ohlord moniker is not a religious reference,it is In honor of the Great singer,Janis Joplin,and her immortal song"Oh lord wont you buy me a Mercedes Benz"
Go to bed kid,your dreams await you....

the hood looks like someone that got into a wreck and replaced the hood but hasn't came up with the "Dough Ray Me" yet to have it painted. People??....don't you agree?......that hood is dumpy isn't it?......have you considered that maybe a carbon fiber hood is not so hot of idea on a MB?......if not and you still like it why don't you consider those doors that tilt up straight up and maybe a little crystal disco ball hanging from your rear view mirror? do you already have one of those thump thump stereos with a huge sub in the back seat?.....lets make out a "tommy wish list" ......what else do you have planned for this "poop box"?

Someone please close this thread. I think this is the kind of crap that is steering people away from here. I think we're all here to offer assistance, ask for assistance, chat about our cars in general and share our mods and experiences with our MB's. Come on now...

This is the first time I've had the misfortune of reading this thread, thanks to a heads up.
I can't get past the first 2 pages of this utter nonsense. Tommy, if you have the power gains you claim (completely unsubstantiated), your car will match a 430 engine, so you aren't blowing away CLK430s unless they had no idea you were trying to race (which I suspect is the truth).
You were asked at least 4 times to at least take a moment to list your mods, which were all ignored. Last i heard, you had exhaust and air intake, which we all know will not give the power gains you claim. Now you elude to some mystery turbo kit, which must be custom made for you because nobody else on the planet has one. Perhaps you confused the Vortex for a turbo.
I think your rampant BS is fouling the board and may be a TOU violation, which I will discuss with the admins.
