Great work man, need final pictures! What color are you doing on the wheels?

 

I'm a little offended that I had to see the final work through Worldcarfans.com after having followed this project since day one. Is this your car that they are using for the marketing of the kit? I'm not feeling the hood though, maybe if the gills were in the same color at the body.

Vince,

Bring that thing out on Friday/Saturday for the Targa Trophy Event @ Aria Hotel!

I told Peter about it. PM me for some more info

dmanero,
That is not my car. That is the original one that Misha Designs did to create the mold and build the kit.

 

Btw the gills on the hood, did you go for the carbon fiber look, or did you have them done in the bosy colour?

 

The grilles on the hood, the front diffuser, the rear diffuser and the rear side vents are all made out of carbon fiber.

 

DTM Auto Body sent me some pictures today of Project Widebody SL with the front bumpe r installed. The car will be ready for the transport tomorrow afternoon. I can’t wait to see the car finally put together. Also the interior carbon fiber pieces have finally arrived just in time. They will be installed by Hyevon Motors later this week.

The new iForged wheel centers will return from the powdercoater in the morning and will be fitted with the carbon fiber barrels which were completed today. Four more days until the transport picks up the car for SEMA.

Can not wait to see the rims, the carbon fiber lip win no doubt look amazing. I've always wondered, are the carbon fiber rims strong enough to with hold the cars wieght? is it reforced with steel under the carbon? Sorry if these comer off as stupid questions, dont know much about CF Rims.

 

Crunch Time. In 3 days the Project SL will begin her journey into the desert for the 2010 SEMA show in Las Vegas. The rear carbon fiber diffuser just arrived from Misha Designs last night. DTM Autobody was able to get the diffuser on today and then the car was given another color sand and buff before the flatbed arrived to pick it up and take it to the final stop at Hyevon Motors in Huntington Beach. For most people on the forums they know Hyevon Motors as the shop of currently the fastest Mercedes SL in the 1/4 mile.

Top Stitch Upholstery reinstalled all the interior panels this morning. They recovered the seat inserts, door panels, rear panels, and a-pillars with a perforated black Alcantara suede with padded silver diamond stitching. Two stack ltd gauges were installed into the new suede a pillar to monitor the boost and the wideband air fuel ratio.

The car will spend its last few days before SEMA getting engine and interior upgrades with the pros at Hyevon Motors. They will be installing their signature stage 1 upgrade which includes

180mm crank pulley
Drop in K&N Air Filters
Dyno Software Tuned
Upgraded Water Pump
Upgraded Heat Exchanger
New Mid Section with X Pipe

A few extra engine and performance parts will also be installed

Carbonio Carbon Fiber Intake
Carbonio Carbon Fiber Engine Cover
Custom BASF Glasurt Mclaren Orange Intake Manifolds
R1 Concepts Rotors and Brake Pads

They will also being installing all the interior pieces which include

Carbon Fiber Interior Kit
SL63 Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel
Wiring up the Stack LTD Gauges
Double Din Stereo Kit for the new Pioneer AVIC AVIC-Z120BT

We wired up the LED in the headlights and the front bumper and they are really bright. Can't wait to see them during the day.

The new three piece concave wheels with carbon fiber lips have been assembled and will be mounted tomorrow morning at Wheel Warehouse to the massive 275/30/20 F and 375/20/21 R tires.

The car is almost done. I really could not even get to this point without the help of all the sponsors involved. Their dedication and perseverance have allowed me to bring this SL Project to Life. I would also like to thank the forum members and fellow car enthusiasts who have given me insight as well as pointers and recommendations with the SL Project. I am so glad I could share my passion with you all.

Thanks to
