[QUOTE=AMGfan;6045986]90% done...trunk needs to be completed, tint redone, and bespoke luggage for rear interior shelf and trunk.
Best looking SL ever…..
One picture is missing…. rear picture with the new tail pipes.

I'm nitpicking...but the plastic cover under the diffuser is crooked. They will straighten it out tomorrow plus convert the plastic under tray cover into carbon so all you see is carbon fiber...seems to never end but it would annoy me to no end if I let it go.

Congratulations on outstanding custom project. Looks superb! But you got to get them to cut those bonnet vent slots out and put some mesh in there!

My god, I don't know what that conversion set you back but it has to be one of the most spectacular cars I've ever seen! Incredible. Wow.

Thanks guys for the kind words...yes...it was not inexpensive. But I've been through these builds before (#7) and luckily I have buyers memory loss...once I pay for something I usually forgot it.
Mid_Cartell...wait until you see the bespoke luggage for the rear shelf and trunk.
We are working on custom pedals too and we've decided to paint the side mirrors body color instead of keeping them carbon. Chris@C2Design pointed it out that looking at pics they tend to stick out rather than blend in...which in retrospect they do.
I'll take pictures of the leather trunk next week. It's pretty sweet.

This is the only one I could find. Because of the camera angle they appear smaller than they actually are but the slots are about same size as on your car.
Car is at my farm at moment so can't take a better shot right now but the vents really give an aggressive look t the front of the car. I have a slightly different Prior Design style hood than you do but would look awesome on your vehicle given all the other mods.

Every time I open this thread I'm blown away even more!
Those mats are amazing! Chris needs to moonlight in bespoke automotive inspired loafers!
I know you aren't exactly sure what you are going to do performance mods wise but do you know who you are going to enlist for the work?
