I had lunch with my mom the other day and showed her the LS. She joked that I should add a "diplomat" flag to the front bumper of the car.

Has anyone ever done that? Just curious....

That's bad ***. I'm thinking get a college team flag and convert it for diplomatic missions to McDonalds and Wal-Mart.

please note that that W140 is fully kitted, aired out, and retrofitted.

flags on your heavily modified car= potentially passable
flags on your stock/mildly modded car= Lulz.

Funny this came up. We went to Tampa over the Holidays. No one in fam had every seen the LS. When we pulled in the driveway my sister in law called to her husband to look out window. She told him someone important in a black car was pulling in to their drive. She had no idea it was us. We laughed & I told my wife we should had two american flags on the front fenders with a CD playing Hell to the Chief.

Its a neat trick to some cars, but I agree, on a stock LS it would look odd. That's why, if you notice in my first post, I never said I was going to do it myself.
