+1...I agree, the brabus SLR is absolutely one of the best looking SLR's. I would seriously consider doing a brabus package to mine!

Thanks! You do have some good taste when it comes to these cars, I really like your ideas with the carbonfiber lip & 722 headlights. I'll try to go out in the next couple of days and take some shots of the cars to post on here.
