Wide Body SL600

Yes I think I agree on the center caps. One more picture.

just an idea try to replace the red with carbon fibre it will look the business!

 

[F1BHP]

I intentionally kept away from the carbon fiber for the whole car. I think it's getting a little played out.

The other reason is because once you start putting carbon bits on, then the carbon look has started and a lot of other parts would have to change.

I did the carbon thing on my E46 M3 and I liked it but I wanted to mix it up this time with the black and red accents.

I appreciate the input C36.

I wasn't trying to be rude just trying to put across my mindset when I was choosing finishes.

I thank everybody for the support

One more, from the back, they forgot to do the MB badge in red

John, the spoiler looks the business!
Centre caps look $hit in red but the rest looks mint

I bet the number plate cost more than the car

Impressive work so keep us posted mate

Top work, love the kit (didnt think I would). I reckon leaving the red accents in there would be better with chrome Merc badges in place but beauty is in the eye of the beholder and if we all liked the same things the world would be a pretty boring place.

 

[F1BHP]

I don't disagree, maybe it would look better with chrome but to me it would look too boring for what I am trying to achieve.

I love to see cars on the road, that you look at and say, what is that?

I saw the car last week - for the look you want all I'd do is change the wheels cap colour, which incidentally aren't on the SLS photo you showed.

It certainly has a road presence .
