OMG why is MBworld sooooooo slooooow right now?!

Nice meeting you guys last night (Jonji, James, Jerry, Alex, Lisa, Robert and the rest if I missed anyone else). James' car is bad ***! If you're serious about being next Jerry, Temecula is only a 30 minute drive for me.

Oh BTW James, I got home in exactly 55 minutes. Beats the 2.5 hours in traffic going up there.

Yeah I think the chrome on the front is sweet. Who did the side indicator lights? SteveNL? Also does the chrome on the lights just stick on?

I think MBworld is sooo slow because of your amazing photography skillz!

Ling no traffic for me dude so i took me only about 45mins. Having the s/c does help a lot on a open fwy! Funny thing too is was crusing at a normal speed and almost got into a race with a 545i. Ofcourse the guy driving didn't know better. One quick blip and he was gone.

Sorry no current dyno at this time. I'll try and post some dynos when i get the car strapped. I have a rough idea of how much but i won't say it. I'll let the dyno sheet do the talking.

Hey Jon, How's it going man? Hope all is well. Thanks for the compliment. The polish i'm using is called Wizard and works pretty well as you can see. It's amazing because even though i've had those rims since 01 they do still look pretty brand new! I actually take them off maybe once every month or 2 months and clean the inner barrel for dust.

James.... i recall you mentioning wizard wax before. where do you get this stuff? got a website? i was told by HRE that Flitz is very good for polishing up the wheels. My customers here suffer from a load of oxidation on their HRE's due to the weather. I need to get something to alleviate the pain.

Thank you so much for the compliment Ted. Coming from another Kleemann brotha that's a big . I'll try and get the car strapped down for some numbers since i'm eagerly awaiting and will keep you guys posted.

Jon it was a long time ago since i bought this stuff. I'll try to see if i can find the website for you. But this stuff really works. Haven't heard of Flitz. Do you have a link of where i can get more info on it? Let me know.

Thanks again Josh! Let me know how the hunt for the E55 goes.

He needs more juice under the bonnet. Two different styles. Mine is geared towards performance while his is a show stopper. But both cars are clean.
