Looks nice. I like the rear spoiler.

I am guessing these were taken before your accident a week or so ago as it looks like there is no damage on the passenger side and the wheels look straight in the picture.

I’ve had my share of black cars. They look great! Except when they don’t. 😉

I do a lot of freeway driving where it rains a lot. The rain is fine, but the spray from cars makes my black cars dirty on a daily basis. I’ve currently switched to white, which is much easier to keep clean.

I'm crazy over the appearance of my car. I wash it every week atleast twice (perks of having a pressure washer and a closet full of products.

It's personal preference but side mirrors are a must upgrade in my book.

Looks good overall and clean.

Yeah. Mirrors. They’re pretty bad. I’m just not familiar with those as mine are different.

Thanks for showing what the stock 17" wheels look like in black...I may have them painted on mine one day. Consider changing the center caps to the all black ones seen on newer Mercedes.

The wheels aren’t painted, they are plastidipped. I am very good with plastidip and it turns out well.

wheels are out of the question, got no money for that. But I’m thinking on a rear diffuser

That bumper has cutouts for headlight washers. Your car does not have that feature.
