          • Picked up these bad boy Brembo's from a Mercedes clk black series a couple months ago, now the time has come to hang them!

            Mocking up the brakes, making sure everything clears

            There will be more when I finish the rear mounts. The yellow is not staying, McDonald theme is so played out.

                        I will be keeping the exterior paint OG, if I do decide to paint her there will be a color change. Thanks for the props and interest!
