eh.... everyone has their tastes, buuuuut:
1) don't like chrome wheels
2) tail lights are kinda ghetto
3) subs are good, but the box could have been better...they just measured it so it would fit the width of the trunk, but prefer a clean integrated setup instead of just throwing a box in there.
4) window tint looks ok
5) drop and rotors look ok

That has to be the most simple-minded w204 to come from a shop. The w204 sports package is a sports car, why would any shop throw on rims that will make you go slower then stock. The car doesn't look lower at all, it honestly looks like all the other cars in Inglewood, Ca...Big chrome rims, super dark tint, tinted lights, huge sound system, and if you asked them about the cars specs they most likely couldn't tell you anything about the hp/tq or even the engine #. If any shops really wanted to get a great appraisal from the w204 community it would on performance parts. Thats honestly the only thing were missing online. Unless you want to pay 4grand+ for headers.

Sorry for the rant, I'm just tired of seeing our cars looking like jokes and shops getting praised for their mediocre work.

Funny how just a few simple mods could make it look ghetto. Anyone could do this.
In the video: 0:29 - wheels "wrapped in nang tangs" What?!
