Not sure I can follow up when bigjoush's beast looks ridiculously amazing! If I ever have to repaint the car I know what color I'm changing it to! Anyways there she is freshly detailed and washed. It's too bright out but I managed to get one decent view. On a side note I have been missing the badge look, if I do re-badge it should I go back to the V8 Kompressor or the 5.5 amg style which I currently have?

Maybe they are maybe they're not She looks sick I agree and I think she may be sick too. My front left tire has the inner tread warn down in a wavy pattern. The right front has a slight wave to it too. Not sure if the tire pressure was too low or the shocks are done. I have had a slight vibration on the freeway and I heard our ball joints can cause that when going bad so I need to take her in and get her looked at.

I think the headlight and secondary light rings painted in black would look sick on your car Mikesamg. Very sinister looking my friend. Go with the 5.5 AMG badge look.

Those wheels + your brakes = ! Looks sick! I'd go with the V8 Komp badges. I ended up liking them better after I had 5.5 badges on mine.

Bigjoush - Nice shot on the move and in the rain. Your car looks sharp.

Mikesamg - I've always liked the de-badged look, but if you put them back I like the V8 Kompressor. The car looks mint.
