New "Raw" finish ModSport 8 shoes

Just got these on yesterday. Still waiting on my AMG crest center caps to match my Mario badge but thought I would post some pics in the meantime.

The wheels are Modsport 8s in a custom ordered one-off "raw" brushed center finish, note the wavy finish on the inner and outer ring of the face. I realize they may not be liked by all but I thought they were unique yet subtle.

I also added matching AMG seat badges to my rear seats. Funny how so many assumed that the four door AMGs have badges on all four seats, but the only AMG I have seen with four seat badges is the new CL63.

Almost done! Paint my calipers Brembo red, remount my Renntech ELM in cupholder and it is complete . . . maybe

Sweet look...the E63 in white is hot (so much so I ordered my wife the W204 C300 sport in Artic White). Congrats and watch out for curbs/potholes. I wouldn't want you to hurt those beauties...
