I really like your stance and wheel combo. I kinda like those wheels better than my renntechs.

I think you should have just painted the caliper and left the spring retainer part and actual pad unpainted. Still an improvement

Love the wheels. I would have gone with the RED they use on the ML 55 calipers, nice and stands out BUT not too obnoxious.

not feeling it, you pinted everything on that caliper... should of left some spots to make it look more like a caliper.

You hve a very good taste my friend! really i conserve the chrome emblems.. bt your car looks beautiful congrats on all your mods! if you replace your pads you can stay them in black coat & they looks the contrast in the orange caliper/black pads

Congrats on all buddy
