Talking Gratuitous W203 Pic-Whoring

Just some of the latest, along with some older pics of my ride. Some people were asking about the car, so here you go... Oh, and it is also going up for sale soon for all those wondering.

I actually like the back. It's really clean. Not a huge fan on trunk spoilers because of the occasional ends peeling, etc. Just looks super-clean!

What's up with the sign on that shop?
They took the AMG logo, chopped the top of the A and the right side of the G off. LAME. Car is looking NICE. Upright star FTW.

Thanks! The tails are stock. I just had my tint shop do them along with my vinyls on the roof and rear bumper. The exhaust is a custom quad style setup using a Magnaflow muffler and Borla tips.

Yeah, I've actually been torn about a trunk spoiler. A part of me wants one painted pewter and the other one black. It may be too much black though. In the end, it looks good either way in my book.

Yeah the sign design isn't the most original, but it hints at what they do there. Although the discount rim shop style front window looks fast and furious, they tune MBs there. They have some sick AMGs in their stable...

The more I look at your pictures, I'm diggin' your tail lights. Did you do those yourself of have a body shop do it? They look like they have too much reflection to be Niteshades, unless you buffed them.

I had my tint shop do them. I think they are either an Avery or 3M foil. It came out top notch!
