oh bravo! That colour choice in my view could not have been better. Think it will be a great contrast with the carbon fibre exterior pieces. What colour are the wheel centres going to be if barrells are carbon?
wanna see pics with the car done...on the ground and ready for the big show!!! congrats on an awesome project!

The car looks amazing, all the lines match up perfectly. Big props to the body shop for their workmanship
I wonder if the grill is getting the carbon fiber treatment as well.

SL55 Widebody
Crunch Time. In 3 days the Project SL will begin her journey into the desert for the 2010 SEMA show in Las Vegas. The rear carbon fiber diffuser just arrived from Misha Designs last night. DTM Autobody was able to get the diffuser on today and then the car was given another color sand and buff before the flatbed arrived to pick it up and take it to the final stop at Hyevon Motors in Huntington Beach. For most people on the forums they know Hyevon Motors as the shop of currently the fastest Mercedes SL in the 1/4 mile.
Top Stitch Upholstery reinstalled all the interior panels this morning. They recovered the seat inserts, door panels, rear panels, and a-pillars with a perforated black Alcantara suede with padded silver diamond stitching. Two stack ltd gauges were installed into the new suede a pillar to monitor the boost and the wideband air fuel ratio.
The car will spend its last few days before SEMA getting engine and interior upgrades with the pros at Hyevon Motors. They will be installing their signature stage 1 upgrade which includes
180mm crank pulley
Drop in K&N Air Filters
Dyno Software Tuned
Upgraded Water Pump
Upgraded Heat Exchanger
New Mid Section with X Pipe
A few extra engine and performance parts will also be installed
Carbonio Carbon Fiber Intake
Carbonio Carbon Fiber Engine Cover
Custom BASF Glasurt Mclaren Orange Intake Manifolds
R1 Concepts Rotors and Brake Pads
They will also being installing all the interior pieces which include
Carbon Fiber Interior Kit
SL63 Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel
Wiring up the Stack LTD Gauges
Double Din Stereo Kit for the new Pioneer AVIC AVIC-Z120BT
We wired up the LED in the headlights and the front bumper and they are really bright. Can't wait to see them during the day.
The new three piece concave wheels with carbon fiber lips have been assembled and will be mounted tomorrow morning at Wheel Warehouse to the massive 275/30/20 F and 375/20/21 R tires.
The car is almost done. I really could not even get to this point without the help of all the sponsors involved. Their dedication and perseverance have allowed me to bring this SL Project to Life. I would also like to thank the forum members and fellow car enthusiasts who have given me insight as well as pointers and recommendations with the SL Project. I am so glad I could share my passion with you all.

I got in on this thread late. OMG That is just sick beyond words. I am totally in love with that color. I was to paint my silver E55 that color. The wheels as just fire I cant wait to see this thing all put together. I am in awe. Great work simply great work.

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not loving the wood with the graphite leather and quilt. Seems to light, or orange, or I don't know. It's the ONLY thing I have seen in this car that doesn't give me instant wood.

You owe me the days worth of underpants.
The project as a whole is amazing. Very rarely do you see something like this documented from front to back. Thank you for sharing the entire build.

Vincent EXCELLENT work bud! 2nd I officially hate you LOLOL... I can't believe you had the exact same front bumper LED idea!! Very nicely executed man!! Send me a link to where you bought your LED's I saw the 1's advertised on the banner on this MBW site (they look kinda inexpensive, you go ALL out so just to confirm these are good enough?)
Wheels are better than I imagined
I ordered the Racemesh grilles in slightly different pattern, including the (2) front 1/4 panel flair openings...Thanks for all the help! Wish you the best luck @ Sema!
your SL55 build is now Deemed...
The Liquid-Metal-TERMINATOR-Cyberdyne model T-1000
Mine will be the older Tattered T-800 model

I can hardly wait to see the finished product. Saw that paint on an SLS here in Dallas, I like to call it "Liquid Boner"
