Thanks...took a risk because the only gloss bronzes I have seen were via the internet, and was worried the wheels might come out gold. HRE did a masterful job with the wheels and as always, props to the team at ACG Automotive (James, Sean, Tal, etc.) for helping make it happen. I wont lie Vic and say that I like your M5 better than your CLS63. The latter was a visual stunner. The M5 isn't my style, but I am sure once you do what you do....it will have a look like no other.

I understand your thoughts on the CLS vs M5- the M5 is definitely in the more tame looks dept. But I love the way it drives!!!


So I see you have a front lip on the car and rear as well on the trunk in black. Have you thought of doing the roof and mirrors in black too? Maybe a vinyl application?

Yeah Brabus front lip and rear diffuser. Love them both. Thought of the mirrors but not yet the roof. I am trying to fight off the mod bug as much as I can and keep it minimalist. Hard to do with gloss bronze wheels.

Thank you. Brabus is by no means cheap, but I can't argue with the quality of their product. Love the look at fitment and am glad I went with them.
