So after i managed to buy my donor car
http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=60295
I started work immediately.
I now have almost all the parts to do the conversion. The only major thing im struggling with is Lowering Springs... no suppliers in the UK seem to keep springs for cars with self levelling...
I have the full Wide Body Kit & Brand new AMG Pentas specifically for the widebody... (thanks to talbir)
This car has almost all the facory options my blue one has... but the best bit is a very very thick file of history... every mercedes invoice since 1993. A photocopy of log book before every keeper change and a fully stamped up book... Its had a service every year without fail and most have been major ones with plugs etc..
Anyway, back to the topic..
Here is how it looked yesterday am
Then got the tools out
Unfortunately already hit a snag.. The passenger side has all the ASR gubbins there... This means the AMG wing is going to have to have some surgery behind the door shut to make it fit...
The drivers side went on perfectly.
Watch this thread..
