Car looks cool with the matte black wrap.

Keep a check on the inside of the trunk for water leaks from the aftermarket taillights.

I bought a CLK55 recently that had aftermarket LED taillights in it. They didn’t fit or seal. One of the sockets on both sides was actually hitting the mounting area and not sealing up. Water was pouring in the trunk. I replaced them with a used set of OEM taillights.

All of these aftermarket lights are junk nowadays.

The “poor person” way is to wrap a car. The “rich person” way is to repaint your entire car. Now which one of you did which...

Looks more like fartbis instead of barbus,also nice intake you should add more clamps for extra force to zero leaks ...Now I noticed why this is the new age civics these cars are becoming worse and worse with these owners since they can afford them now.

Come to my office and tell me to my FACE
3900 Tunlaw Rd Wash DC 20007
TRS Merch
That address is an apartment complex with places that sell in the low-mid 200k range.

https://shop.spreadshirt.com/trsmerch/ - Is that you? It's the only thing that came up under TRS Merch. Kind of thought you'd have more out there since you mentioned it.

I'm not impressed by your baller status yet, which should be pretty good with you talking about portfolios and questioning others net worth.

Wow that went south fast. I am actually curious though, where did the net worth thing come from? Seems like an inferiority complex is lurking in the background to immediately jump to comparing this.
