Debadged the tailgate and gloss black wrapped the trim

^ An extra 10 bhp without those badges.
Nice clean look

Looks like you have a Manchester registered car as I do.

New rear wheels, coupe 20's. Got spacers sorted for front too

 

[Bobby Dazzler]

Collected from the main dealer following a recall (replacement of the Hermes unit) and some warranty work (replacement active aero control unit and recoding rear axle control unit for rear wheel steering).

I hadn’t driven it much whilst waiting for the appointment to come round, so looking forward to driving it more now

No Rear Spring work on the W212s, too wet.

Went to pick up another set of the reurbed wheels with the new Michelin PS4 on.
Quck check and they had fitted 93Y instead of 97Y, replacements here tomorrow.

DRL surrounds de-chromed


Next up, the lower bumper lip!

Underbody rust proofed, it dries clear and doesn't look unsightly, also oil based so cures any squeaks or creaks. £272 at Krown in Dudley. Great piece of mind.

Getting front coupe wheels machined to fit my estate, reducing offset by 7mm, from 25 to 32. Specialist wheel machinists, TT Tools in Chelmsford can fit inserts and modify safely to suit. Turning around while I wait too! Just got another hour to kill!

Wheels fitted, 20x10.5J and 19x9J. MO tyres.

Really happy with the results.

 

[pmcgsmurf]

Cleaned and treated the rear protective covers for the W212 before I put them back on (when I eventually get my tyres).

 

[SmartAmg]

2 New front tyres. 235/35/19

 

[Bobby Dazzler]

Jetwashed berries and leaves off a few with my new Karcher cordless jetwash and DI vessel. The stormy weather whisked up the leaves, and had made them stick.

Took one to the supermarket, the very long way, just me and Mrs D. And then cane home the even longer way. Stopped for a romantic Vampire Frappuccino too

 

[simB]

Put my Edition 1 stripes on

 

[Bobby Dazzler]

Mrs D had a hospital appointment which was cancelled last minute due to COVID-19 but I managed to get an appointment at a hospital 1.5 hours drive away at short notice, so off we went this morning.

It was a great opportunity to go somewhere different for a drive so we took something interesting. It was nice to be somewhere else, doing something else. Stopped for a a Starbucks too.

Silver lining and all that.

 

[pmcgsmurf]

MOT on the W212, passed, no advisories.

 

[MissyD]

Put my Edition 1 stripes on

wooooooo!! go faster stripes

 

[simB]

+50bhp standing still!

 

[pmcgsmurf]

Cleaned and waxed brake pipes.
Fitted all my wheels back on.
Hoovered and cleaned seats. MOT next.
