Nice job though, I'm sure it wasn't easy or cheap.
Have you had it out in the rain yet? Any leaks?

Too much work at the moment....

IMO you'd be better off selling your car and buy the car you're tryng to make yours out to be...for less money

Almost done, Hopefully 1-2 more weeks and everything is ready! I agree it is cheaper sometimes to purchase a car with full options, however I already have the modding bug inside me. To be honest you get more pleasure when you modify your car yourself rather than buying it brand new with all the options. Also the knowledge I gained in the process is invaluable!

I really can't see anything.... but making a big hole on the non-sunroof option car can be dangerous since you make the whole body structure a lot weaker.

WRONG! I did not make a hole in my roof! I replaced the whole roof panel with factory sunroof panel, sunroof tray, sunroof glass etc, everything was replaced according to oem standards with all genuine mercedes parts.. Structure as good as factory sunroof car.
