I think i wanna update the benz...
 
yeah, i want the car to look like it's saying 'fast and furious' cause that's how us racer like our rides to flash.

Well I just order this kit from Chicamachanga in Europe. And it set me back a whole BD 1712. BD is their currency, so I have no idea what it is in USD. I just bought it, too 'dope' to pass up.

Here are their sample pics.

The wing is on back order cause this setup is so fresh! :o



Well my body man is good, I overnighted the car and kit to him in japan about 5 seconds ago and it just got back. I wanted him to color match the kit since we all know my car is black. I also had him install some M3 mirrors on my BENZ, here are some pics.

Don't worry that spoiler is gonna stay there when I add the wing from the yellow car. It makes it faster in case you didn't know.

Well I liked the yellow look better so I re overnighted it and it came back with leds! and a fresh paint job!

hah, hey Murdoc speaking of Benz's, my brother works for Mersedees (SP ::)) and they just got an SLR worth over a half million dollars. He was telling me some of the prices of parts for this thing. A set of ceramic brake pads for this SLR- $3000 for the fronts or backs... not all 4. you want a new rotor? Try $15,000 for 1 rotor!!! I'm not even kidding. How someone can afford some of these cars ins beyond me.

Re: I think i wanna update the benz...
 
i don't see how you can make a rotor cost 3000 dollars..thats craziness

yea on jap cars it drops seconds on your 1/4 mile. On euro cars it drops minutes! So everytime I drive it I end back at home, cause I travel back in time :o

NO WAY!!! I hate buying parts for my car jeez. i updated the tail lights and that was 300 bucks with a dealer's account. Brakes are like 50 or something. tranny filter is also like 50.... but 15000 for a rotor! Sheit I'll rock the OG ones til the wheels fall off O0

Oh and go take pics of the SLR and have your cousin steal parts for me ;)

those puddle lights are actually hot when they're done right....
EI white lights not that stupid neon ----
they turn on when the door opens so you don't step in ----
we all know who ever is pushing a big dawg whip has some exspensive scarpines((sp) and italiano for shoes) on there feet..... O0

and a 12cyl benz needs no mods except wheels...it's just the fact that it's got 12 cyls ;)

Re: I think i wanna update the benz...
 
the spark plug change for the SLR is apparently $1000+/-....since you have to remove the entire motor to access them...crazyness!!! :o but i mean consider the people who are buying these cars and also think about how much they probably drive them(close to neveror most liekly weekends)...they can afford $$$ parts.

I saw an slr on my way to the heat game last saturday.. seriously one of the slickest cars ever.

tranceminister 03-18-2005 08:07 PM

Re: I think i wanna update the benz...
 
Indeed. It is a rare car, and I have never seen one in person let alone on the road. On this window sheet I have here, from factory it comes with a Supercharged 5.5 liter V8 rated at 617hp and 575 ft.lbs. of torque. :o Thats got to be one hell of a ride.

haha funny you say that. I test drove a brand new Audi A6, the A4, and she was going to let me test drive the A4 advant (but i ddeclined, I think I woulda fell in love :-\), also test drove the new BMW 5 series, and a new WRX (declined the STi, also for fear of wanting to come home with it :-\).

They also let me drive the car in back roads to let it rip when they weren't suppose to and no credit checks :D

Not bad for a half million ;). My brother was telling me that when the truck carrying those SLR's (sealed up trailer), arrived the truck driver told them to get it off his truck. I guess the guy had a few more he delivered to another Mercedee's dealership in this state, and he didn't want to have such a liability on his shoulders anymore if something happened. I mean you figure you've got to transport something that costs more than a large house, and you've got 4-5 of them :-\ I wouldn't feel very comfortable either.
