Build looks amazing! I'm sure the car looks even more menacing in person.

Looks like your rear badges are a little off though... maybe paint those in matte black as well?

not sure all the equipment he has. rig shot would be cool, but don't have to have. still have yet to pick a place, but i am thinking something close to sunset time.

i am on the fence about it right now. the chrome does give a much needed and good looking accent, but, i think just the mercedes star might be enough. giving it a couple days before i decide. right now i am 51% black and 49% leaving them chrome. it doesn't look bad in person at all.
that is one of the things, and one reason i post so many pics. i find it helpful to see pics of the car rather than seeing it in person. you just get floored in person and it all just looks perfect. seeing it in pics you can separate a little.
i had the garage open today and the wind was blowing a little. i had to dust the car off 5 times! ya, i am super ****! haha

You could consider them in Black Chrome ...... I saw them ones but they did'nt look that good but that was due to the car's color ........ not sure if it was in this forum thou .......

many thanx my man! the indy shop is ordering some up for me, also going to give the CLS the 'side mirror treatment' when the led emblems come in too
I already have them on my 550 and they're sick.....
led's were wired into the turn signal and have a mellow glow when the headlamps are on; AND they still flash amber when you use the signals

HELP! there's a little blue light bulb in front of the high beam that act as day time running light, but it's actually yellow when I turn it on, which sucks, I wanna change it, do you know what type of bulb that is?

overZealous1

mine are gone from my purchase history on ebay, but i believe these are the same ones-

ya, the yellow light looks like crap! i did the 3" projectors in my high beams so when the leds light up (i got the same type as that link with multiple leds) it looks killer. you can notice them in some of my pics. that is just the parking lights on, not the brights. has to be error free though. yup, even those little effing bulbs are monitored!!

i just looked and maybe i never posted a good pic of it, here is one.

SpiritR230

it looks GREAT! thanks I'll look into it, what you use for low beam? 6000K?

overZealous1

not even sure. whatever came stock. these were from europe though so i am guessing and hoping they are euro spec. have to drive at night to see, lol.

had to go to the steel yard today and pick up some metal for a work project and started looking at retangular tubing for a quick easy exhaust tip. found a 2"x8" 3/16 wall tubing. i had him cut off a couple pieces and low and behold, they look awesome!! will post pics when done. cut my exhaust work down to 3 hours compared to 8 for $15 the pair!!

on a side note. the project i am working on right now is for a previous customer that knows my car habit and wanted me to custom build him a top lift for his cherry old bronco. fun project. all motorized lift and can be done easily with one person!

Exterior looks nice, next maybe rewrap the interior with black or red leather?

overZealous1

while black might look a touch better, the grey still does look good in person. i personally like the look of the light grey from the inside also. makes me feel clean since i spend most of the day dirty. hahaa

since nice weather is finally here again, i think i am going to limit my projects on the car to one or 2 day type projects. after all the intense time spent to just finish it, i want to enjoy for a little while now. i may start building the spare engine up or working on camaro again though for the summer.

Now - thats whats it's all about ..... enjoy Oz

finally took the car out for the first time last night. in a 10 mile round trip to dinner the car got tons of broken necks, looking, crowd at gas station, crowd at restuarant, many thumbs up, and the waiter asking me to adopt him (which is weird since he was about 10 years older than me! LOL). so ya, car has quite an impact in person.
taking a nice cruise through the oregon wine country and to the coast tomorrow, should be a great drive with the top down!!

Watch-out pretty girls maaan...,

ZAYED,,

did the first cars and coffee yesterday morning. the car culture isn't big here in oregon so only about 30-40 cars show up at it. car got great responses with a consistent 15-20 people around it at all times.
feels good to see such a great in person response. many compliments on the quality with many thinking they were factory parts. hard to do a car that everyone can appreciate from the teenagers to the old timers. rarely happens like that. even the muscle car guys were hanging around asking questions.
put about 300 miles on car yesterday also with zero issues and even better, zero rock chips!

I always loved that color blue on the FJ. Looks f-ing amazing on the SL. Nice job!! Really nice job!!!!
