Re: ML55 ////AMG + viper engine

im not painting it cuz wen i paint (spray) i usually screw everything up and it looks like a piece of $hit. the outside is gonna look fairly stock and i think im gonna stick sl55 rims on it http://www.maisto.com/product_detail...rod=31&from=26

front end pic notice how low the car sits and does not scrape ground and black lower grill for realism: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/...55ipods023.jpg

rear notice painted black grille for added realism and black insert tail lights (not lowered yet): http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/...55ipods022.jpg

side pic: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/...55ipods025.jpg

Re: ML55 ////AMG + viper engine

i decided to put maisto audi tt rims. they are a little bit larger than the stock ones. i have put two more bars in the roll cage and lowered the rear. headers have been put in. i have found out a way to make the exhaust and a front and rear bar. pics coming soon.
