Badd, A$$. You must be way more OCD than me to have your car that clean.

Gorgeous!

Gotta love shooting in RAW and then using post editing software. Your photographer is talented.

Thanks guys for all your kind comments...

Here are some more pics with some behind the scenes shots...There will be a couple more of shots that the photographers are working on that deal with "light painting"...they moved the lights all the way around the car and take pictures (which stays stationary)...probably a total of 9 pics merged into one picture...I can't wait for that shot!

Where did you get the rear bumper from and did you have all of the plastic trim pieces painted black? I was also wondering if you have lower links or a module? The stance is perfect! Thanks!

1. We got a VIN from one of the SL63 @ MB of Tampa and ordered an SL63 bumper from MB. Originally, the rear SL63 bumper had the OEM.

BUT I decided (about a week later) to go with the Revosport SL63 Carbon Fiber rear diffuser and undertray...which use see in the photoshoot. What you don't see the undertray...

https://mbworld.org/forums/3599824-post1.html

2. All the trim pieces were painted satin black..

3. I had the Kleeman LM installed.

Thanks again for the kind words.

Jon
