CF front lip (Gary@ Suvneer)
AMG skirts & Rear Bumper
CF diffuser (Gary@ Suvneer)
Wald LED insert adapter
De-chromed all moldings, impact strips, door handles

Few more odd and ends to do...AMG decals for calipers, CF arrow style mirrors, CF trunk spoiler and new wheels. Leaning towards VOSSEN

Old Wald:

Looks fantastic. The only thing I would change is the wheel color. While it looks good, there seems to be too much dark gray going on so I would paint them either black or silver to give some contrast. Otherwise, it's freaking sick.

Exactly lol. I had the F14's first all around for over a year then decided on the new CF5's when I cracked a wheel. Just did the driver side (a trend I've done on my Lorinser ML). Best of both worlds

Thank you! As for the color, thats the look I'm going for. A dark grey, murdered out look. The F14's are Matt Blk and CF5's in textured gunmetal. Wasn't too sure about the textured gunmetal look but it works for now until next set of wheels

Thanks bro! The wheels are Wald M11C 20"
