^ The 2006+ tail lights, the inner circle where the reverse bulb is, its smoked/tinted vs. the 2005 which is clear. All the circle has a different reflective pattern as well. 2006 HID ballast is smaller and will fit perfectly on my 2008 JDM headlights. The 2005 HID ballast is bigger and does not fit directly on the newer headlights. Thus exposing the hole on the bottom which can cause condensation. I don't want to fill that hole either because I don't like to temper with OEM parts.

Swapped out summer wheels for snows on a couple of cars, then cleaned them for storage.
You'd think turbo wheels would be easy to clean but goddamn, they're a pain in the ass. Only set that was more time consuming were BBS RM's.

on the AMG.. have 2 full service done in 1 year and 3 months with 22k km... I understand the AMG engine is expensive to maintain but it's such a unreasonable rip off !!! lol

^ I guess when you buy an AMG/RS/M car, they know you are willing to spend more on maintenance Vs C250/A4/323i consumers......Let's say MB charges $150/hr labour....they spent over 4hrs inspecting your car??? sounds like a 1hr or 2hr job tops!
