              Never seen a steering wheel center like that.

              And the bumper has the inserts to match your grille. Nice

              Dave, I see you have an older disc brake pedal pad like the early Mustangs. Did it come on there or did you add it?

                  Damn, that's one great lookin Merc ya got there. Are those 99+ GT rims, cuz I was wondering what they'd look like on a box until I saw Matt's photochop. They make your car look mean.

                  IMO, if you really want those rims to stand out, get plain center caps and paint the indented part of the rims black.

                    did u use spacers for them or did they just go on without a hitch?

                                well this is as clean as the bumper is going to get without a rechrome, you can see everywhere the chrome fell off while cleaning it
