Green looks amazing!! I'm still contemplating what color I'll be doing.... If you don't do green I may have to!

That stuff looks neat. Easy to apply with a brush. BUT, the instructions say to use it with the temperature between 54 and 70 degrees.

Now there's an offer you can't refuse.

Where did you get the AMG emblem? Is it stencil/paint?

Damn it, looks like this will be happening. I can take the calipers off and paint them in my house. I'll have to crank the a/c to get it to 70. the lowest we set it to is 80.

I have yet to bleed the brakes on this car. Let me guess... it's not straight forward and I need Star or something?

just leave them on man, less work. Mask everything just like theVazha did and i have and prior to any paint sand them off scuff the old paint off as much as you can and start shooting them with paint. light coats let them dry until its nice and a solid color desired. Than let them dry for 10-20 min and shoot them with clear.

I just ordered the G2 kit in Verde Ithaca. The problem is that the directions say 70 degrees max or it hardens too fast. My garage cools down to about 90 in the evening and is typically 100 during the day.

Pro tip: if you order the G2, add it to your cart and start the check-out process. Enter your info and get to the next screen, but don't complete the transaction. They emailed me a coupon code for free shipping, which was going to be $15. Has to be used within an hour of receiving the email.

The car looks good! I'll definitely have to look into that before leaving here.

Green calipers would look absolutely awesome!!!

Mine is just an 07 CLK 550 AMG

But she looks good 99,850m. Just did oil change,9 qts,ouch, full front end struts control arms tie rods etc new tires, fixed fuel leak,common, new rear shocks. I figure 15 k would be a good price.
