List ur mods!!

pazu · 07-21-2005, 11:47 AM

mm44, better change the wheels la....
the wheels look not suite for the car....
maybe use the brabus monoblock VI multi-pieces ...or monoblock V ....
this wheels look~~~~~so strange...

pls dun mind!

:p

Duo-Art · 07-21-2005, 01:12 PM

I disagree. mm44, I like your wheels very much. I bet they don't show the brake dust as much as the stock wheels.

Ynot · 07-21-2005, 02:34 PM

I agree with Duo-Art, keep those wheels mm44, it's unique, makes your car stands out from the other SLK's with brabus monoblock VI multi-pieces or monoblock V

mm44 · 07-21-2005, 09:09 PM

Thanks all guys. It was hard to make the decision, most of the famous brand, Brabus, AMG, Carlsson, OZ I've been consider. Normally, I get the Brabus kit, Brabus rim should be quite resonable. But so many replica out there. Since in a Japanese Car Show, Prodrive demostrate on Black R171, it makes me to take it. And the light 7.5kg weight is bonus. If I need to change a Brembo Cliper, the rim has enough space for install. I made the right choice, just like Ynot said "Unique and outstanding." One Silver AMG55 was taken Prodrive silver rim also. Pazu, maybe u can find Prodrive will soon be penetrate in HK European performance car market. theitaliianjob, those mod. are as follows: Remus Exhuast, H&R suspension. A satin anti roll bar waiting for arrival. Designo wood trimming Handbrake, door handle and steering wheel. Brabus gear knob on its way. I will go for a Pulley mod. after the fty warranty.

Those wheels are light!! Do u have any pics of the Designo wood?

Btw, how much are those rims?

mm44 · 07-22-2005, 02:05 AM

theitalianjob, HK$17,200 / Set, without tires. The wood trimming is still under processing, I will get it back tomorrow afternoon. After that, I'll post it. The trimming which I take is not the third party item, it must process on the original parts. Much more cheaper but get an excellent quality. Once u see the result, u can't believe its not fty optional items. Besides, which model u take the italianjob?

MadC32 · 07-25-2005, 05:45 PM

love all your brabus stuff guys.. looks awesome!!

mm44 · 07-25-2005, 09:48 PM

Thanks MadC32, any pic of your C32? Like to share your mods result. Actually, I've got the bodykit n knob from Brabus only but I love them all. The wood trimming are finish, check it out guys. The tail light is DIY, the concept come from slk 55, it cost me US $5 only.
