Default New owner from the other side of the world

Hi,
I am new to this forum but i already took a lot of useful help and information about my crossfire. BIG THANKS TO ALL OF YOU.
This car was parked over 3 years because of a tranny issue with the previous owner. It was a good deal to buy it as project since most the parts were Mercedes and i have mercedes cars over the years and have some experience to deal with them. The car was not maintained well so i change most of the parts like engine and tranny mounts, new radiator, brake pads, fuel pump, spark plug, stabilizer link , new tires and a used tranny. I thought i will fix the car then sell it but i never expect how fun to drive this car around. Sorry if my english is not perfect since it is my second language.
I will leave you some pictures of my project to save this car from a junkyard.

First wash after 3 years













I changed the leather of the seats

I added phone charger and usb ports

Installed android screen

Love the interior colors. Did you do that or did it come from the factory.
