Hey guys, well, I finally got the look I was after for my 2012 E63 Wagon, and if Darth Vader needed a family car, I think this might be a good fit hahaha.....
1. Blacked out all the chrome trim around the windows, tailgate and roof rails. Left the door handles as was advised a wrap would not survive long from the door handles being used all the time. Tinted the 5 rear windows. Smoked front side markers.
2. Lowered with H&R Springs up front and links in the rear
4. Gunmetal AG Custom Forged Wheels 19x9 ET30 & 19x10 ET45 on stock tires. Eric from www.supremepowerparts.com helped me out on the wheels - honest and awesome person to work with. Highly recommended. AG can build these wheels to any width and offset you want.
Front wheels are brought out an extra 7mm (stock wheels are 19x9 ET37)
Rear wheels are half an inch wider so as to better make use of the 285/30 tire and are brought out an
extra 13mm (stock wheels are 19x9.5 ET52). I am told that the ideal width for a 285 tire is 10".
I have tried several different aftermarket flat hood badges, and due to the crease going down the center of our hood, NONE of them fit well and honestly are pretty cheap.
DFWdude's badge however, is a WORK OF ART. Perfect 100% fit and looks amazing IMO!!
I hope you guys enjoy the pics

Reason: info
It's pretty good for what it is. But over the past year and a bit since I had it on, there are a few nicks from rocks. Its not noticeable unless you look really close. I think its worth buying

Sounds like Lord Vader needs an Xpel clear bra for his wagon
