Tysons I is PACKED on friday nights. I think Tysons II is the better option. I'll try to make it with the clk (needs tires, may just put on a spare), if not, 300E it is.

Yeah.. if you have a full size spare with stock rim, throw that on!
If you need recommendations on paint shops for your Carlsson RS front bumper let me know. I might have some people that would do it for a reasonable price.

Tell your bro to come out too.

Looks like theres going to be a good turnout for such short notice. Me and my bro are coming (so both of my cars will be there). I'm going to be arriving ghetto style (blue bumper and a black spare ) but I'll be there, see you all tonight.

I just talked to my bro and he's not going to be able to make it cuz he just got box office seats from a friend and he's going to go see the skins game tonight. So the question is, should I bring the 300E or the CLK? Any suggestions?

It all depends on the price and quality. I had my car in the shop for a week and the guy was supposed to "hook me up" by painting and putting on the bumper for $200. After a week he had barely done any work (he took off the old bumper and "sanded" the new one) so I took the car back (he also messed up my orginal AMG bumper) and I started putting the new one on.
