Art In Motion

I've seen a lot of good looking still photos of the E but it really is Art In Motion.

Actually I use Blackfire Polish and Wax. When I looked at Zaino the recommended applications seemed a bit involved. I am however always looking for the wettest look.

i see, blackfire? not a lot of ppl use it, zaino might be more overall, but it lasts longer, and i believe they made thier products even better, Z-5 will give you a real deep wet look, but none the less your car looks awesome, nj with the combo + rims

Those are great pictures. It looks like you put your hood ornament back on, or did you have it off to begin with? I seem to remember you took it off for a more sporty look. Just curious as I can't decide if I like it better off or on. They are unique, though, as most cars don't have them anymore. Again, great looking car. Can't wait for mine......

I decided to put it back on. I thought with the 18" AMG wheels that it looked sporty enough.

hey stklaw,

great shots. I'm starting to wish that i should have gotten tectite or another dark color

one question, where did u get the tint job done? i would see if your tint place can do the rear window corner. it looks like they did a great job, but that small area kinda attracts my attention. i know it is possible if they say it isnt....here's a pic

I never thought to ask if it was possible. It just looked like it wasn't. Thanks for the info. I'll go back and ask. Do they have to dissassemble the rear door panel?
