The white shoes are going to be a *****. A friend had a jag with white powder coated rims. They only looked good when the car was parked. Immediate brake dust disaster all other times. Bold fashion statement but always reversible.
The "white belly" side skirts are really going to stand out. Who knows, it might even take off. Black wheels popped up in the scene on the mid 90s Gran sport Vette but then blew up a decade later and replaced chrome as the go to wheel mod. Fast FWD another 5 years and the trend goes on blacking out everything front bumper to bumper including lights.

OP. Wouldn't it have been cheaper to mod a Honda or Toyota like this rather? And you will have a bigger community of admirers and supporters.
I doubt that drivers of Mercedes will really appreciate such mods.

Cenzo thanks for replying man. Good to hear someone has a little confidence in the project.
And Tron, I was going to originally do that but at heart I am a Mercedes enthusiast. Plus you can't argue with the numbers this things going to put out once the tune is installed.

I think I've only seen maybe 1 or 2 cars able to pull of white wheels well. I also think the white sideskirts will look trashy like the car is unfinished or got into an accident. I would say reverse the colors, get the wheels black, wrap the whole car white and leave the sideskirts black if you want, similar to these:

God has mercy If only the colors could change their places, it would be an awesome car. I sincerely hope that these change are reversible, cause some day, you'll wake up and ask yourself, "What have I done?"

Why is that guy standing on the roof of that G wagon? It seems unnecessary. There was a guy who used to attend the Ferrari Long Island rallies who had a 360 with a carbon race hood. His shtick was pulling the pins and tossing his hood on the floor to get his skateboard from his front trunk.

Black and white fuzzy dice hanging from the rear view mirror would really "make" this car IMHO.
I think my eyes are actually bleeding right now.

As always everyone thank you for the comments and honest opinions. I respect all of them but in my eyes she's perfect. And I said it before and I'll say it again, at least I'll be Fast and ugly right? Have a good evening all. And thank you again

Adam, is it a daily driver? I'm curious if the white lowers are picking up spots and splatters yet and how the dust situation on the wheels?
