Those wheels look awesome! That style fits the W204 perfect, and love the black powdercoat. Just one observation though, for some reason they look smaller than 19"s, at least in the pictures. Not sure why though. I know wheels with stepped lips tend to look smaller than they are.

Anyhow, they look great.

Thanks man. Yeah they're 19's but I think since its all black you can't really tell.

I love the black top look but I think I have enough going on now. It's time for me to mellow down.

I'd like to know what you used to white out the side marker lense.

Oh and I love the whole b/w thing too, super clean look.

I purposely did it, so it isn't too much an imitation thing. More original.

I painted it. Buffed off, prepped and painted with paint from expresspaint.com

Lamin-x tails. I bought a strip and just freecut them with an Xacto knife.

Thanks guys.

What color Lamin-X did you use for your lights, did you just overlay on the white reverse part of the taillight?
