I like these because it has a sort of mixed between muscular and soft look to it like our C32s.
edit: this is the one, but his is the real thing in 19's http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6334

Yup that is the one. I think yours looks much better...just looks odd on the silver to me. As for the need to drop it, sure it would be nice, but it doesnt look too bad at that height. I ran 18's for a bit before getting coilovers, and I was surprised that they still looked good on the stock sus.

too many to list
Something looks off, its hard to tell what. Maybe the wheels need to be bigger. Maybe they look better on silver. Or maybe you just need it lowered a little bit. How much for the replicas?

i'm in the process of doing this currently. this idea came to me after seeing some SL55's a while ago, and how much better it looks than the Sl500 (taillight wise), but i wanted to wait to see if the C55 had it. since it's apparent that the C55 doesn't have it stock, i won't be copying it, so i am going ahead with this small project. i will let you all know how it turns out.
