I have made some major changes to the car in such a short amount of time. It made such a huge difference.
I agree. The car looks 10X's better...I'm actually kinda jealous, cuz I had to do everything piece by piece...

Now that I make enough money to do stuff, the parts I want happen to be more expensive than I ever intended to spend and more expensive than a lot of stuff that most people go with...

Hey C240owner, just noticed you have some type of cover/strip for your taillights, got any photos of the car at a distance with those on, they look pretty nice.

Normally, they would be Euro Impact Strips, but those are actually integrated as part of the bumper. He mentioned that in his thread with the body kit stuff. But they do have those OEM parts. Just contact Steve (MBenzNL). There are a lot of people on this board that have them.

Are you sure? Because he's the first one that I've seen that has them. To clarify once more, I'm talking about the taillights, not the side marker lights.

I painted them a long time ago but didnt look all that good. There was just to much going on.

--Flame suit on--

I am ashamed to be showing this pic again. At least I had gotten rid of the Ebay exhaust tip by then
