Thoughts on how would this look?...

What are your thoughts on how a light colored, late model C230 with black C55 spoiler, black painted lower rear bumper, dark tint, and some nice black deep dish wheels would look? I am leaning towards getting a white or silver 05-07 C230 in the near future, and have some ideas on how I'd like it to look with some mods. I saw some pics of the CLK63 Black series, and love how it comes with a darker rear spoiler even on the lighter colored models. It really makes it look very sporty and race inspired. Of course, I understand it's carbon fiber, but I'd was thinking even a C55 spoiler painted in satin black with the satin black painted lower rear bumper would match nicely and achieve a similar sporty and mean effect.

What are some of your thoughts? I've played around with Photoshop on some c230 pics, and it does look pretty sweet with the black treatment.

It should look cool as long as you take the 230 badge off
