So when are the 65 and AMG badges coming on the car? You already got the wheels, brakes and the fender badges on already right? Your big oval quadruple pipes that stick out too much look good 
Don't forget to add some more V12 BiTurbo badges on the trunk so people behind you know it's a V12 just in case if they don't know what the 65 means or they can't see your fenders. Also carry those pictures of your turbos around so you can show to people just like in your post 15.
BTW are you going to post any videos of your car skidding recklessly? Maybe when it snows? When's the picture coming of you sitting in your car giving the peace sign?

You are a moron. I say you line your genuine AMG car up with his to see which one is quicker and deserves to wear the badges (even though he does not have any hint of inappropriate badging on his vehicle). The reason we are on an enthusiast forum is to share our ideas/passion for cars, not to be judgemental pieces of ****. Hide behind your keyboard and act like a fool, it suits you well.

I personally dislike the V12 Bi-turbo badgin on the car, even though it really is a V12 Biturbo. Just like I disliked your V8 badges on your old 500. Thats just me though. I think the style in NY is a little more "show us what you got" than it is here in Cali. Again, this is just my opinion, and I know and have met Chris (oxygen). He is a good guy. I think the brake upgrade is awesome, and Im surprised how puny the stock 600 brakes are 
If it was my car (which it obviously is not) I would debadge completely, or put S320 on the back. Can you imagine a real AMG getting smoked by an S320? The look on the other guys face would be much more priceless, than if the "other" guy knew he was already racing an S600 V12-Biturbo.

Hi Oxygen,
I like the Bi-Turbo emblem. I am keeping my AMG wheels original because I like the way the silver matches the paintwork. I would like to order the Bi-Turbo plugs for my 05 S600. Do You know how I can order them? I like the work and photos You have put up by the way.
Also, there are chips for like $100 I see. I know Yours was much more because they tuned and all. Do You think the $100 chip would improve things for a weekender like me? I am not wanting to screw up a beatuiful thing by mettling with that I don't understand but want to add a little if I can for that small cost. What are Your ideas? I saw chip on SLR (A Chip company)... Only experts like Oxygen post answers please; I don't want to base a decision like this on inexperienced advice, just the pros please...
Thanks!!!

German vehicles stink, will never buy again. Moved on to Toyota and BYD.
Oxygen: Your car looks really great. How's the ride on 19" with low profile tire? Any reason you went 275/35 instead of 275/40 in the rear? I am planning on getting the same wheels and not sure if I will go with the staggered look... low profile tires have given me a lot of trouble in the past on 20s.
How does the lowering module from Renntech work? Does it work from the airmatic button?

I went with the same size tires are OEM specifications. AMG put 275/35s on the rear wheels so I followed suit.
The car rides like an S-Class should! I mean, I'll admit that with the lowering module and the bigger rims the ride is firmer, it's still has that S-Class feeling to it.
The RENNtech ELM interfaces between the suspension computer and all the sensors from the wheels. The buttons on the center console work exactly as they did before the module. When you don't have the car raised, it will sit as low as you set the ELM (each wheel is adjusted from 0 to 6). When you press the button on your console to raise the car, it will raise just like it always did.

Hey Oxygen,
What gains did You post with the Renntech chip and tune? Ft lbs added?
I want to know what I'm about to get before I get it...
Thanks Man, CHunter

I did not find a template or anything else that had specifics as far as placement, so I looked a bunch of pictures and estimated the distance.
Measure everything out with a ruler, make sure your gap between front and back of the fender is the same on both sides, and make sure you duplicate your measurements from one side of the car to the other... use a ruler, make it level. When transferring the lettering tape them together from the front so they are even.
Here is what I used for reference...
Use this for height measurement from the ledge to the badge:
