Detail 301 Oh. My. God.

With all the tech talk thats been going on I thought I might shift some attention to aesthetics. Detail 310 did the job for a pretty good price. Pictures REALLY don't do it justice. Ive never seen her look like this, even when she was a day old.

Those wheels look terrible on the car. You should give them to me and save yourself from horrible embarassment.

Damn that looks good! I have always gone back and forth about the roof spoiler, but it looks really good on your car. Who makes it? The decklid spoiler is Lorinser right?

Thanks for that.
Just to confirm those are the stock fronts and the stock rears off a S65? Any issues such as rubbing?

No, its not lowered. I'm still considering it. I took the pics on the driveway entrance to try and simulate the look a little bit.

Detail was $200. Interior and exterior and the car was DIRTY beforehand. They charged an extra $25 and came to my house to pick up the car and dropped it off when it was done.

No, stock fronts and rears off of an SL65. No rubbing at all.
