Some pictures, and a quick question

First, the question. Searched... Does anyone have the part number for the 80MM s.c snout for an 80/82mm TB? Now onto the pictures I've found on the internet of the beast at waterfest 17 this past weekend in NJ.









Thanks again guys. More photos in a photo album I setup. Will try to find more pictures on the internet or video.

Also just found this video, car is in at around 2:50... editing is funny for when the car comes up, i like dudes style.

80mm Plenum

If you are looking to do this mod, contact Bruce at TTM. His plenum mod has worked perfectly. If you need more than just the plenum (snout), he can do that too. Nice pictures BTW!!

Yeah, they're all over the internet... at least the more recent. I have found a total of 15 so far. I've uploaded 6 of them into my photo album here on mbworld.

Do you mind my asking how much it ran you to get it repainted? I have an 03 (38k miles, 3yr warranty), just bought it, but if I'm going to keep it I think I might take the dive on getting it repainted.

I do, at some point. Just moved way west out by the PA border and my title hasn't come through for my car yet (CA is the WORST when it comes to pushing through paperwork, I will never buy a car there again). Don't want to get harassed by NJ cops so I'm taking it easy for now.

Pshh, just roll hard. You're in an AMG, if you can drive it "classy" cops won't even look twice

Shhhh, it's not paint.... Just as expensive though! But a good paint job with complete prep and removal or trim/handles, etc. should run for a matte single stage job should be anywhere from 3-7K depending who and how nice they are to you.

I wasn't going to go matte, but yeah I was thinking it'd run 5K...

Great job on the wrap.

Ha. My ***** aren't that big for that, and my wife has them in a jar anyway.

I haven't really decided, but I'll probably stay close to the Tectite Gray I have. Though I am partial to a midnight blue or electric blue.

Sold - 05' E55
I saw your car on Sat at Waterfest, it's slammed thats for sure, and that flat finish is pretty sick. I brought my E, and parked with the Audi's (far left side by the Audizine tent)
Did you get a picture with the girls at the booth to the right of your car?

No didn't even think to do that, let alone I don't have a camera, or camera skills that I know of. I'm just scouring the forums looking for pictures from other people that attended. We had it even lower on sunday... believe it or not.

Loco attended saturday too, they wouldn't let him run. hahaha!

I'm not shocked about them not allowing you guys to run. It would have thrown off the average with all the VW's running 16's.
