    Default Satin Black G55 Build

    Well thanks for the input on the color change. We have started the first part. This is my 2005 G55 in a graphite color. I have chosen a satin black. The car has been disassembled and the front bumper painted. I have also ordered the brabus monoblocks in 22 and truck-lite led lights.





    Front bumper


    I may want it more satin. Like this


    Will try to go more satin. I don't like the matte. I want an almost plastic look. The painter says any more shiny and it will be semi-gloss. What do you guys think?

    Would really like advice as I go step by step. Thank you ahead of time.

    I ordered the wheels. Had a good deal on a new set of monoblock 6 for an R class. What else do you recommend.

    That red and black G is the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

    ^ I know, i agree. I'm just pointing out the black part. Can't tell if that is what they call semi-gloss or if it's satin.

    I think you can do it by using edit option in your post.

    I have a set of 22 inch brabus monoblock vi.



    They will be powder coated black also. What tires should I go with. Truck tires like a nitto grappler or lower profile tires like Pirelli as in the car above?

    I would say go with the LED Lights that go under the headlights from TAG... Will make your G look much much newer! I think... - Arman
