Looks good. Like the thick grip steering wheel update. Also those callipers look great like factory porsche style. The AMG painted lettering looks like a tricky job. Two thumbs up

Do it still, it will be nice. If you get scratches they will be on the bottom and won't show up from the top.

The car looks sick, i love the rims and the tint. Great mods.
