Fast Cars!
The car has potential if you took off all the chrome, got a nice body kit, nice wheels, nice brakes, a drop, exhuast.

I want those doors for my car, yet at $2200+ for either the VDC or LSD kits its a tough choice.

Personally, you should've dropped the car first and got some interior mods. Don't get me wrong, I like vertical doors, yet if you're opening them to a stock interior from a stock exterior, they are not impressive.

Ditch the chrome headlight, tailight, and door handle pieces. The chrome mirror pieces look good. Buy the CL grill, and smoke your tailights, it'll match the theme you've started.

BTW you've mounted the rear spoiler wrong from what I can tell.

You should really get rid of most of the chrome. Especially with the black wheels, it does not work. The only piece I kind of like is the piece on the side mirrors.

I don't know, I wouldn't chalk it up to age. A lot of people here are pretty young. I'm just barely 22. But hey, as long as you like it... just don't ask for my opinion and expect compliments

Age has nothing to do with it. I have a feeling this kid will have poor taste all of his life.

Fix it up however you like kid.

dude, it's just a C240... if it were an SL then... maybe... but a C240 is in no way a pimp car. Sorry to tell you this, but you've cheapened an already cheap benz.

You guys should be more positive to Lambobenz, I hate seeing such negativity come from a few of you guys. First of all, to his own taste, if he likes it, that should all that matters, its up to him if he wants to take your recommendations or not. Second, down here in SoCal chrome is very disliked but, up in PV and Beverly Hills chrome is used everywhere on their Benzos. So perhaps in his area "chrome" is the thing to do.

I'm not gonna lie to the guy and say his car looks good...that's just adding fuel to the fire.

My recommendation, smoke your tailights and take off the chrome, the chrome trim is very hard to pull off on any car regardless if its chrome, red or black. The same goes for your front headlight trim, very hard to pull off. Chrome door shells are fine, I had them on my car to match my Mono VI 2.5" Polished Lip but I will be taking them off soon since I switched to Mono S.

Yeah I understand , but im not asking you to lie, but the "ricer" comments aren't helping ethier.

Also regarding to my previous recommendation, sell those to someone on ebay if you can and invest yourself some clear side markers and paint them black or if you want to invest even more get yourself Euro Impact Strips from Steve, about $180 I believe.

If he hadn't asked publically for opinions I wouldn't have given mine. He asks for opinions then b!tches about the ones he gets. Sorry, if you get what you ask for then you have no right complaining about it.
