Most of my mods are cheapo, replica & some savage from my E class. But there are two items is Mercedes original that is Rear spoiler & AMG pedal sets.

Day One - 02/03/2012

Collected my new in the late afternoon due to workload. Handover less than an hour. Gun down to LS to install my rims. The rims took me months to hunt for it. Intend to purchase the 7 AMG spoke & get it spray black to match my diamond white coope! But didnt like it when i took a good look at it so I give up. So sad coz by llooking at the brochures is super damn chio!! So sad and almost give up hope, bang!!! I found this rims & heartbeat immediately increases & i know this it!! Is GOD send!!

19" staggered setup & almost flush with body & is concave design!! One word "WET"!!

Next after installation done, went to Infratint to get the car tinted!! I didnt ask my SE for it due to different tone issue.

All the poison! Nice mods, and you managed to get the car with the ILS option? Doing anything to increase performance?

P/s I'm guessing the one fin grill fits the sedan and coupe? Does look very good on a white car.

I guess now you only need to practice "two fingers" kung fu instead of the more powerful "four fingers" to lower the only 2 side windows when TP is beside. Life is easier now. :P

Yes its does" fits" sedan & coupe. However for coupe that T bracket couldnt be attached to the fins. Just like sedan the gap is much narrower than coupe. Coupe gap estimated 1".

Hp is in the midst of planning, waiting for the vendor to come back to me. This mods is secondary, my ride having 200 pony is good enough for city driving.

While remove the spare rim found 2 interesting issue

1) the spare rims is the exactly same as stock. Usually is those cheapo black bottle cap design rim. Anyone notice it too?

2) the holder to lift up the board can be hook onto the edge of the boot opening

Was at Sonic last Friday to install the headlight film and was deciding between tinted and clear. In the end, decided to do the clear film. Didn't want the front of my car to look so dark, although it'll go very nice if you already installed HID.

Your mod don't look cheapo at all... And very poisonous too.

Totally agree with Icohol! Still say I mod fast, you mod so much faster and more poisonous than me! Mine really 5 cents compared to yours.

Yes I already have a list of mods to do. If delivery really in mid march then it's not so bad after all.
