It keeps the great detailers in business, but does sloppy work like that still make you crazy?

Do you have any issues with the 2.5/yellow pad combo dulling the paint at all?

As for AMG, I don't quite think its an amg. Maybe an s500 with an amg package, but even then its missing characteristics known in all amg vehicles.
edit: This is an s55 amg. Notice the missing features.  | |

Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: New Jersey Posts: 303 | great job man. im usually a BIG fan of black wheels but i think spokes would look a little better. Also those look on the smaller side, 18's maybe??? that thing would looked slammed with black 19's or 20's spokes with a chrome lip  great job on the rest | |

edit: This is an s55 amg. Notice the missing features. | The S55 that you have there is after the facelift in 2003. This is a pre-facelift car (98-02). I can't tell for sure without seeing the engine or even back of the car. But judging by the body kit it looks like a S55.
BTW, very nice job on the S.
