My MB "FEED" project..

***Herblenny*** · 05-10-2009, 04:25 PM

Here are few pics of my project for the Exedy booth at Formula Drift ATL..

My buddy Leo (AbadR1) painted the bumper (type2R), fenders, and help me install it. All done from last tuesday night (after 5PM) and early thursday morning (3AM)... Not bad for start painting to install

Beautiful...

Looks good Phil. I really like the 3rd and 4th picture.

***Herblenny*** · 05-10-2009, 05:00 PM

Thanks..

I need to do something about seeing the ground looking into the bumper opening.. I hate that!!! I did use 99+ MS undertray that Shine is replicating but it still shows the ground at certain angle... I'm going to try to fix that next weekend.. and build some sort of oil cooler duct..

rotorhead87 · 05-10-2009, 08:38 PM

I envy you for all of your possessions I wish I could have!!! Beautiful FD is all I can say.

MotoTek · 05-10-2009, 08:49 PM

Phil, your MBFD is just so clean. Tastefully modded both interior, exterior, and engine wise.
3rd pic is my favorite. Nothing better than a garage with 2 FD's sitting inside being worked on.

Wow, love it!

***Herblenny*** · 05-10-2009, 08:58 PM

very nice

I like that bumper. How does the car drive with that bumper? Does this get reed of the light feeling when driving at around 100 mph? My car seems to get light around this speed then seems to settle down a little at about 120 mph.

I also was looking at the same hood. See this comb on you car was great for me. I have a 95 MB. I think I may go with a differant hood. I like the look, but I think I want something a little differant then the look you have with that hood.

Great looking car and as others have said, "tastefully done."
