Aftermarket Tuners in Southern California?

Looking for people in the Los Angeles area that would be willing to hook me up with Mercedes-Benz aftermarket performance products. Or just want to meet other Mercedes-Benz enthusiasts like me who are willing to do major mods to their cars.

Thanks James! B4Chow, let me know what I can do for you. By the looks of my signature, I'd think you may find that I am willing to do major mods to my car

Mach430,
Do you guys carry prepainted lenses that are clear b4 painted, so that when the light is on, it will be a clear light instead of amber?

Our pre-painted lenses use the factory orange sidemarkers. Depending on the color of your car, the light will shine through at different intensities in that color.

You're welcome and you've got to take pics of your car with the Brembos on them! I think that'll be awsome with the red brake caliper and red car! :p

James, after contemplating the color choice for a while, I chose silver calipers with red lettering. I thought that choosing red would not look as good on my car for two reasons. First, the red would not be Magma red, and thus, I'd have two different reds on my car. Secondly, red just doesn't stand out as much on a red car as it does on silver, black, etc. My car is going to be in the shop until next Wednesday, so it won't make the meet, but I will definitely post pictures afterwards. Also, my invitation to test my car still stands, shoot me an email when you get a chance.

I think silver is also nice and you're right. Red caliper on a red car would be too much red.

Also shot you a PM.

thanks!
