Thanks means a lot coming from you
I go about wheels like you I'm alway switching it up. next week I'm picking up a set of 18" Motorsports wheel in flat back they will be a nice switch when ever I want more go or show I will have a choice.
Thanks ya I love the sound. I think I'm going a CF wrapped roof soon. Just have to restock the Mod fund. Your redone HRE's look killer

With that sound, badging doesn't really matter - I don't think you're going to catch anyone sleeping on you!!! Love the look. You referenced turning your chrome accents black a couple of times and I couldn't picture it. After seeing the pics, you were absolutely right - it looks killer. Nice build!

Yeah I defintely think the black trim looks great, there was something about your car that was making it look different than most other 55's I have seen, and I figured out it was the black trim which matches your rims!
The calipers I am still waiting to get done. Uniq seems to be a bit unprofessional at setting dates to get work done and following through. I got the impression when I picked up my car the first time that they did not want to do the calipers because it was too "hard." Anyways, I will have to keep bugging them.

Sounds killer. Not sure if I could live with it as a daily, but man....I bet you get goosebumps when you go WOT.
My SL600 is pretty loud too, but it's not a daily....
