you inspired me
Of course. We had a couple bags of ice...we drained the water until we had about a quarter of the tank. Then we stuffed one bag of ice in it. Dropped the temp of the water to somewhere around 45 degrees ish? Might have dropped a few more degrees because we took the temp only a short time after we put in the ice...(We had a digital temperature gauge with us... )

Thanks fer the kind words. Just wanted to keep the exterior nice and simple

Next up is dry ice the next time I go...see how that werks...

Here is a close up pic of the caliper's ( I know...I need new rotors...) and yes I am going back to the stock AMG sides so bear with me...and the front is a lil higher then usual. I had the car raised so I can put the jack under the car and the car didn't fully "squat"...and yes I am still waiting for my flat hood emblem...and finally some initial pics of the car with the HRE's and the Vorsteiner diffuser on...Enjoy

BIG shout out's to:
Serge and Jon fer getting the diffuser and the exhaust leak taken care of...
Edison fer clearing the Vorsteiner diffuser fer me...

Front close up


Rear close up


HRE


HRE front angle


HRE side angle


The view many cars see...

your car is higher in the front
