Smile Just an update on car and opinons please

So went back to auto shop today.... been a week they havent started my car yet .... zzz lol they've been jam packed I guess. While there I took my mirrors off, trim off, headlights off

plans black out head lights everything including eyelid, mirrors paint the matte black part of mirror cover gloss black, trim paint gloss black, and attena paint gloss black.

My cars going under its remodeling faze anyone have any other thing I should get painted? and thing thats an easy mod if Im at a repairshop?

If anyone needs me to explain any steps to ripping apart the mirror every piece lmk, and how to black out headlights, as for trim xxHotel ask him hes the boss at that.

As for front bumper any recommendations
Originally was going to the lux bumper and jp vizage lip but after some opinions from others getting to me I guess not.

Maybe Vis c63 style bumper for c300
or anything else stock sport bumper with my old setup of carlsson lip
opinions guys haha

i didnt think jp vizage stuff was bad. it obvi has japanese styling to it but it still looked hot to me and if u like it u should go for it. the point of modding is to be unique and create what u like with ur car

get the insurance to replace the lip cost, then use the old one again, take that money plus stock fog lights replacement money and go stock bumper w the newer LED fog strips, transforms the whole cars look. Get the parts yourself and bring to shop off parts.com. I love my 2011 look compared w the 08 I had, all the new MBs have LEDs, the S has fog and inside headlight strips too, makes car look new and updated IMO. You can get them cheap on parts.com and wire them straight to alternator so they are on all the time without having to use fogs like the other guy on here did, thats what I would if I had an 08-10 and was in your postition

Bumper idea

Check out Revosport website for w204 F1 safety car styled front bumper - its very cool and aggressive looking. It has integrated led fogs and larger intake openings with vents on each side, too. It's what I'm going with in a few months...

you will run into a 100 people in a given day with your c63 bumper.

80 people will say: wow nice car!
10 people will say: oh sweet, an AMG model!
8 people will say: ive never seen that body kit before on a c300
2 people will say: what a ****ing poser, he put a c63 bumper on a c300



now the question is, do you care what those 2 people say?

who cares what other people think its your car, 90% of people on here have either c63 diffusers, quad tips, or c63 wheels, does that make them "rice"? no it just means they are car enthusiast and want to make there car there own and not like everyone else's. also unless you slap a mugan or nismo badge on your benz it'll be kinda hard to get called "rice" your cars german not japanese lol. thats my peep talk of the day

BTW the pic above with the black bottom looks sick. IMO
