Agreed. People will mistake you for a skate/snowboard star car with the stickers. Needs Jersey plates too.

Overall, I think I like it. I would never do it to my car, but it definitely looks good.
The actual bumper looks messed up. There appears to be a circle shaped dimple on the drivers side and weird waves or dents in the rest of it but maybe it's the pic

Thanks all. Yeah, the dimple on the bumper should not be there. Not sure how it got there in the edit.


The second phase will be a slower development than the first, but nonetheless a transformation from the current state.

Stickers will go as well.

A little update:
Phase 2 on the MOB Rover will be put on hold for early next year.

In the mean time, the X5M posted in the first page is getting a special color change and wheels, photo's coming soon!


And might as well throw the AMG under the chopper, since stock is never fun. So far a custom exhaust (very quiet until 3.5k+ rpm) and painted emblems are the only mods. Fully spec'd and designo interior, 1st white on white S63 in the US. Love this beast!

I've been lucky enough to drive a few S63/S65s and they are completely nuts in the best way imaginable. You're surrounded by super plush finishes with wood and leather and such and you totally forget you're in a fast car until you get on the gas. Super quiet at highway speeds and then fcking nuts when you get on it.

You're right, it's just a hell of a car.

I currently do not have pictures of the interior, but I believe I will have the car with me again this weekend and will snap some then.

They sure are. I'm having the s63 and e55 shot by my friend tomorrow. I'll be sure to get shots of the interior and some rolling action.
