I've got to say the MP40 is great... really good to have it - that link above is where i bought it.

I have fitted spoiler but i didnt do it quite perfect which drives me nuts so will take it to the shop soon to have it done properly.

Hum, did not consider spacers, the wheels seem to sit well. Will lower car a little more at back and see how they look...maybe that would improve it though.

Updates

The Bad:





Living in UK... the govt takes c.50% of what you earn + endless road taxes + $2.25/litre fuel and yet they still leave war-zone-esque potholes around most of the city! Many roads I think have not been touched since the late 1800s.

Anyway... result: one tyre which looks ready to blow! Luckily got it switched out, local place had an exact same Conti part-worn in stock, so fixed for £50/$80. Phew.



The Good:



SL63 AMG lights purchased... having them fitted by MB on friday. Are going to look really good I feel!



To do:

Once rear lights are fitted then I just need the windows tinting, 35% all round (kind of an impossible task being as I work a lot and the tinter guys are always busy at weekends... if anyone knows a flexible tinter in London give me a shout.)

Great looking SL! Glad you decided to keep the original color. The wheels look great with the blue!

Tints done, rear lights tomorrow and resonator delete next weekend. Will add photos shortly.

For now here is a photo someone just sent to me - I don't know who took it, but it was when me & my girlfriend were driving around London and it's a nice sunny photo so thought I'd share:

We should have some front side and rear pics before and after.
So far, so good. Now, can you leave well enough alone?
