Congratulations Ethune. Great looking 129.

Don't you love it when that kind of deal presents itself? My '01 had 6300 mi. when I bought it and I still pinch myself. Enjoy the spring days!

I think they look great and I'm sure the new ones will look even better.
Let me know if you decide to sell the 18" ones. I might be interested in them.

Back from the Shop

Finally got the car back. Compared to the pic from a year ago, I had done the following:

New AMG rims, Lowered 1 inch with Eibach and Blistein HD. Will get the window tinted in a couple of weeks when the weather is nicer.
