Wow. Dinko, good job! It looks amazing - you did a good job pal. 
Seeing your car is making me anxious over my SLK. It starts getting dyno pulls to optimize maximum power output on Wednseday (headers & exhaust arrive from Kleemann on Tuesday). It will then take a few days as the ECU programming is optimized from software downloads from Denmark. Ahhh, it will be worth the wait, just like your SLK mods. Patience.
PS - your brakes look good.
Cheers!

My brother in black...
From one black center HRE owner to another...sweet ride.
Glad to see you choose the HREs. BTW I spoke with the engineer at HRE last week about the Viper racing league and he said it was a bunch of hog wash what happened out there. For the real story just call HRE and ask for the head engineer he'll give you the low down on the politics and sponsorship of Forgeline that led to HREs being banned in the Viper Racing league. It has nothing to do with standards or "multiple" failures. Also, the PCA loves HREs.
