tbh i don't know how you guys prefer the 65 front bumper lol, yes it definitely looks more aggressive but the squares on the sides kill the curves for me. btw how much are 65s worth these days?

anyway your kuwaiti 55 sibling says hello! cleaned and refurbished the passenger side headlight. needs new fogs (or current fogs to be scraped/cleaned) but i don't want to do that with the thought of the `07 bumper as a possibility

(ps: yes i will replace the r129's glass)
hahaha thanks bro, and regarding the color, i personally love this color.
Oh I remember when my SL's headlights had some slight dew in them, very annoying to see and I finally had polished the interior of the headlights, makes you feel as if you have a new car :P
An 07 SL55 front will be nice, but I too have to agree with Mohammed, the SL65 front would be gorgeous.
Ouch, hurts to see the front windsheild cracked, with time the cracks grow larger so you should get that replaced!!
And tell your 55 its sibling in bahrain says hi hahah

So took the car out for a quick spin this weekend, weather was freaking amazing in the morning, no rain though. And luckily I had my camera in the car so took a few shots in the morning and later on too. Rare site in Bahrain to see grey clouds, so yeah it kinda made my day

Some morning shots of the sky

The Sl looks different without a wrap. It used to look more sinister, now it has more elegant presence. Black wheels really make a great combo with the color, and the rear bumper is just perfect!

Nice pics again bro.

Bro, but you should invest some money in your house, it doesn't like as god as the car.
PS: Can you make more pics from your place? I love the dessert!

I agree, there is no way that I will be going with a matte finish now on the car. Thanks mate
