Nice pics. Give us a list of your mods. What software do you use to edit the pics?
Thanks, haven't done anything performance wise, just some mods to make it look pretty
Iforged Essens 20x 9 20x10.5
Adjustable lowering links
Front clears
Black grill
Painted Calipers
I just got the car in Feburary, so I might consider getting some renntech mods later on this year. As for the pics, I used CS3 to edit them- pictures taken with a nikon d40 18-55mm

Did you paint the calipers yourself, or have a shop do it?
Been thinking about doing it also.
After seeing your pics, I can see why you painted them red.

Did em myself, it's real easy.. probably took me about 2 hours max
I didn't even bother taking off the calipers, all you need is 320 grit sand paper, primer, and some caliper spray paint.
Clean the caliper, sand it down, clean again, 1-2 layers of primer, and 2 layers of spray paint.. fairly simple. I wrapped the rotors with newspaper so the paint wouldn't get on it like this:

Where did you get the new AMG logo? I have a Stoptech BBK and after cleaning them only a few times the paint is coming off. :thumpdown: I'm going to have to have mine powdercoated or something.

You can order them off ebay for less than $10. :thumbsup2:

Get high heat resistance paint, thats what I used on my calipers. Hopefully it won't chip off anytime soon. like BLKFIN mentioned, I got em off eBay or you can have a local custom shop make you one
