Absolutely. We can order just about any 3 piece custom set and we have some monoblocks available as well. Brabus and Carlsson probably have some that might fit as well but might require spacers.

Is that wing a factory option or aftermarket? I have never seen that wing before.

Forgiato definately has some creative designs. Those look great on the car.

Looks like the stock wing in the "up" position. It raises at speed like the CGT

The wing is speed sensitive, deploying at 75 mph and retracting to the flush position below 37 mph....it's standard equipment. The only US option on the SL Black is exterior color choice.

Oh, and for the record....I actually like the wheels.

Thanks everyone. Haven't driven it much since getting through the break in period. Hope to remedy that soon. Raining here today, otherwise I might have had a baseline 1/4 mile time for your infotainment.

Happy Thanksgiving!
