postin up some pix of my beloved SL600

the pic with the top down is when my front right hydro-penumatic bladder was flat, and the car leveled itself (this lowered the car 1.5 inches) the rest are in good health... The wheels are BBS ASA ST4's with kumho ecsta 712's. it still lays rubber with 275's in the rear

Thumbs up Phenomenal Body Kit

Mr. Eabul,

Good afternoon! I have just seen the pictures of your fantastic ride. "This is truly the most gorgeous SL body kit that I have ever seen!" It would give me great satisfaction if you would be kind enough to tell me where I can get this particular body kit. Thank you for your attention. Take care!

Doc

If any other member knows any information on this particular body kit, please do not hesitate to contribute your thoughts! Greatly appreciated !

Proud New Owner

Here are a few candid pics of the 99 SL500 including the new 19 inch wheels and Pirelli sneakers. I must say it does hang a mean turn now.
61,210 miles on delivery in May. I have run it up to 67,000 already, but so what!
