If you want to be different, have the car painted to match the primer front...and get about 4 coats of clear. This will be a different look-while keeping the clean Lex appeal.

I like the stance, and I like the wheels/tires combo. Along with that color I'd say this is going to be one of my favs.

A lot of people are running a lot of good parts on here, but they don't put it together well. I think this car will flow nicely when all is done.

Thanks, I hope it turns out looking so fresh you'll want to sell your benz and repaint your sc ! Seriously though, I'd keep the benz unless you're ready to unload it, it's in such fine shape.

Fitment is called "conservatively aggressive" (sunk in the front, semi-flush in the rears) lol.

The paint guy's always late, the shop owner's going thru a divorce..I doubt it. Shop's a few minutes from where you live dude. Didn't make it to your wrench it but planned to go.
