My SL63 with some mods

Hey guys,


I have done a few things since picking up my SL63 2 weeks ago.


Here is the list of mods.
  • Smoked headlight film to cover ugly orange reflector
  • Smoked taillight film just over the white turn signals
  • 50% tint on windshield (20% all around was already done)
  • Lowered with Links from Eurocharged
  • 20" Modulare Forged B31
  • that's all for now... not future plans either.
Here are some pics...

Turned out great.

How much did the links lower the car and did you need to re align?

Looks awesome!
Love the tinted tails, I don't know why Mercedes stopped tinting them on the r231 AMGs but it looks fantastic. Great job!
