Looking good. Does your exhaust have the dreaded drone at 1800-2000RPM? That's why I switched to OEM E55 exhaust. The drone was just too much for a daily driver.

I see you painted your roof black like me. I tell ya, I was hesitant but I get more compliments on that than you'd imagine. Really is a good mod for cars without pano.

Here's a pic of my roof:

Thanks.

I wouldn't have minded the drone at those engine speeds but the problem is, our cars stay between 1800-2000 most of the time, due to the 7G tranny. It drove me absolutely bonkers. I lasted 3 months before I had to take them off. I still have all 4 cats and the resonator right now with the E55 exhuast. I'm seriously considering taking the resonator off though. We'll see....

Benzo-rama - do you have any sound clips of your car with the AMG exhaust? I'm debating if I should do a x-pipe... I'm afraid it'll get too loud.

Not yet. I'm racing it at the big MIR event on the 15th. Should have some clips then. It's not much louder than stock. Just has a bit more grumble.

Car looks awesome man! Great job!

I'm in love with those rims, I was thinking about switching out my 19" AMG 2-Piece wheels for those 20" Wald ones.. I gotta get pricing on those.

I saw you guys talking about coming out to Westbury - DO IT!
