your car looks great:y giving her a complete makeover eh...love the wheels too.....but......imho...the rear bumper seems to be a bit too much for me...maybe its the pics but overall your car looks :y:y

Gondon 05-11-2008 06:34 PM

Wow looks awsome

how much you payed for it?

westcoast5 05-11-2008 10:12 PM

thanks guys!!!

i think its the pics cause the its just a lip kit the flare on it does not go out anymore than the stock amg bumper line it just make the line lower and the rear is the same with cutouts for the exhaust which is also on my mod to do list.

Gondon I got a hook up and it was actually a gently used kit. I did search around and the best prices for the kit was at dc designs contact David over there hes in VA tell him Bryan sent ya.=)

I also adjust the front so it sits about 1/2" lower as you can see in the pics.:D

I was comparing the pics from the s55 exhaust and that one and the muffler shape is different so I dont think its gonna be a good fit :nix:

Nice kit dude !!

Personally I want to go for a kit that has fog lights.. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.. I got a quote for the Lorinser kit, but I found it to be a little out if reach...

I'm also planning on getting the F-01 fenders.. I think they look awesome :-)

If you don't mind me asking out of curiosity what did you pay for it? and was it already black or did you have to re-paint it?

I payed a little over a g for it. Yes it was already painted black but there was some minor scratches on the front from the previous owner so I had it resprayed and when they installed it they did a cut and polish on the paint. The back end was fine but I had them cut the rear for a future exhaust and the sides were also just resprayed.

lookin' good :y i'd like to see a straight shot of the rear end.

did the rear bumper come without exhaust cutouts? i like the lines of the hidden, downturned exhaust on the 430s.

Its the same Exhaust KSC got on his S500 and its the one on the s55/ S65's.

I havent bought it yet cause S5 temporarily convicne me not too, but I will prob do it soon , its on my mod list ! :D

haha i kno , its just a forum nick

jfendis430 05-12-2008 05:20 PM

What does a cut and polish cost now a days and how long does it take?

Gondon 05-12-2008 08:17 PM

You dont need a cut when they add exhausts they usually heat up the bumper and mold it right in looks perfect. Its the same as a cut acutally and that is probably what they refer to as a cut.
