Woah those are huge pics. Looks nice tho

Sathinas · 08-27-2010, 07:13 AM

I can deal with the grille and hood. But those white wheel lips... no.

Maybe if the lips were black...

kevinwithdabenz · 08-27-2010, 02:21 PM

where'd you get the black tips?

kwikblkmax · 08-27-2010, 03:39 PM

maybe the pigs threw up in their mouth a little, everytime they saw the car.

huir · 08-27-2010, 04:54 PM

I like the way you wrapped the car. nice look

lkevinl · 08-27-2010, 08:36 PM

By "pigs", I assume you're referring to bacon, right? If not, then the next time you're in a really bad situation and need help, try squealing.

Hottest C if seen!

Everyone is to their own taste. Why did you get that lincese plate holder, that looks pretty kew. Way better than drilling into the bumper.

tanktube67 · 08-28-2010, 01:29 PM

I think I have seen your car by Sherman Oaks Park, I like the before pictures a lot, I don't know about the white diffuser.

kirillbenz22 · 08-28-2010, 01:47 PM

overall not bad i like it and the diffuser I think it looks good but better in black, the tail lights is not my cup of tea if I were you I would black everything out but the reverse lights me and my friend both have it on our C class so far so good (knock on wood)

ldtCapitan · 08-28-2010, 02:54 PM

Car looks great, I'm just not a huge fan of the white lips on the wheels. I do like the white diffuser though.

IGB · 08-28-2010, 03:43 PM

I'll give you A+ for effort... Certainly sets you apart from the rest

BUT...

I'm not feeling the white lips. The tinted tails look good but I think you're going to have a difficult time running through LA with as dark as they are (fix-it ticket). For a white car, I would have lightly tinted the red part of the lens and left the clear (reverse) part as is

. Lastly, I think the front side markers looked better with the clear lenses versus the painted ones (that too is a citable offense (fix-it ticket)).

ShaiMalka · 08-28-2010, 04:05 PM

sidemarkers were painted white only because i had a blue light in there, also i appreciate everyones comments kind of wanted to do everything a little differently, also my cousin has a c63, god forbid i ever get a fix it ticket i can swap the tailights for a couple hours get it signed off and put them back on. tailights look all black but bad picture quality its more like the red turned burgendy and the white turned a light grey. Also im a big fan of color matched lips i dont know why but like how the car flow, tips were powdercoated black, h&r super sports coming really really soon, will do a better quality shoot!

topspin4hand · 08-28-2010, 04:42 PM

I think part of the car that may have attracted the attention of the car the most was what you didn't change: the wheels. Still, the changes you made are nice and the car is still "different" with your personal style worked in.

2GRLS1BENZ · 08-30-2010, 02:18 PM

the car looks great. i love the black and white color scheme. it's definitely a one of a kind.

qwqwerertyty · 08-30-2010, 06:13 PM

just wondering, is that a brabus 3 piece spoiler without the middle piece?

come out to the meets sometime!

dynomite05 · 08-30-2010, 07:35 PM

Look Great! I wouldn't of left the diffuser alone though, it would go with your theme.

JimPap · 08-30-2010, 07:56 PM

Shai,

I think you're heading in the right direction. That flat black paint job just didn't do anything for me. But sometimes you have to try something different to see if it works. At least you were willing to undo it. Most would have lived in denial and left it that way.

Now if we can only get you some wheels. :-)
