Congratulations, finally it took ages. I got the LSD installed the car just launches terrifically. 1st gear little esp intervention at very low speeds, 2nd gear no problem just grips crazy.
What your car now needs is the fresher new tail lights and the SL65 Front bumper with slight lowering ie electronic lowering module. You've got a panaromic sunroof or is that a foil ?

Post up a video of your car accelerating! I'd love to see that!
Yup your right, thats all what i need with the exterior modifications. New '10 AMG tail lights, the 65 bumper as you told me before, CF front lip to go with the bumper and yes, the car does need to be lowered, its a must!
Do you know any site, which sells 65 front bumpers? I can contact Revozport, they helped me out with the 63 rear bumper.
Yup, i have a panaromic sunroof

Please dont do the front lip its an overkill, sort of too much contrast black/silver theme. See how it goes with the 65 front and the new tail lights and lowering. I cant stress to say that the Quafie LSD is the best thing I've bought its 95% better than stock.
I'll try to get a vid of my car accelerating, as you know the region is facing some dust storms so I dont want to risk taking my car out.
For lowering you can get it from Kleemann if you want, I know there are many setups out there Cargraphic, Kleemann etc. I've also heard that you can lower it through the dealership star diagnostics system.

The panaromic roof is nice, I thought you had foil as its too mainstream these days. Your car is improving very nicely, mashallah.

Regarding the lowering, I can check with my dealer later next week, since i'll be taking the car for a normal check up and to get new brake pads (drilled and slotted brakes literally eat the pads)
Yeah, its an annual thing these sandstorms, looks like I wont be driving my car for a while

Update:
Just installed the new HRE P40's last night, sorry for the bad pics, we have a sandstorm here in Bahrain so no chance of proper pics. Will have a proper photoshoot as soon the weather gets better!
Let me know what you guys think!
Hope you like them!
