and then you realize they're mostly fiberglassed backing on the general CF parts. parts that are for look.

not gonna lie. my front lip is for look on the w204. lol

I think he was banned coz he did not respect car owners on this board. But that being said, that "60 yr old idiot kid" does have a point and I do agree with what his starting point was.

For me, I do think I am a poser if I put C63 mods on my C300, because to me that just means I can't afford a C63 and for people who knows cars, I'm just a "wannabe". (notice I'm using me as an example rather than using other car owners on this board)

I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion, thats why we are on this board in the first place...if only that idiot kid was mature enough to say it and still respect others...

sorry for being off topic, had to write this...

Hey, does anyone know of a place that sells these tailight rings? They don't seem to be on ebay anymore.

Thanks!

NO, he IS banned because he is some idiot kid behind a keyboard in NY based on his IP. You've been given a suggestion to read his post in the W203 forum to understand the situation, why still come up with your own conclusion?
