Thanks! That pretty well sums it up.

BTW, here's what Flying Tiger wants for a Brabus wheel/tire/suspension set up:BRABUS "dynamic driving" package: shop.flyingtiger.ca

What color and/or finish did you want? There are only 4 options for the Brabus. - foglights, driving lights, alarm, and sound options

t bone, wanted silver/silver, all options less alarm. Can't take black upholstery and need to add a shield between roof and sunscreen which I do myself. Might consider a good seat cover (light grey?) if the work looks like factory. Thinking over my order...

gotcha. Just my personal preference, but seems to be a waste to cover leather seats with a seat cover. If it were me, I would redo the seats in another colored leather, or have them dyed.

These guys took ordering a Bra-bus a little too literally. I wonder if it changed their DD-E.

Why would it be heavier?
