sounds like airplane
i've seen that bumper before i think-

i can't believe you like it though... not my style at all

i wonder if that car is as described... no performance gauges, no underhood shots, sort of ridiculous claims lol (although possible)

other than front bumper only it's a stock looking car with so so wheels on it and what?

calling it "black series" pretty much ices that it's teerarded

If you like the bumper send the guy from you tube a message I guess. Personally I feel that bumper takes away the classiness of the W202.

At 3 seconds, it shows W211 E55 brakes and then when you see actual pictures of the car it has W203 brakes. Sort of misleading. I also highly doubt the 3.9 0-62 claim made at the end. I had seen the video before and I like some aspects of the car and other parts I don't. To each his own though.

I'm calling BS on that. He could have modified a bumper to fit on the C43, but building a bumper cover from scratch...I don't think so.

Did any of the C43's have buttons on the steering wheel? I thought only the W203 onwards had that?

That steering wheel is not a W202. Looks more like a SL or something.

I like it... but I kind of like the OEM front bumper... but I think the break setup looks good... the if it´s Black seris or not... it lokks good.

I like my C43 more and more... the conceopt of v8 in a C-clas is just pefect...

It's definately a close match to the Rieger (Blue 202, 3rd from Left), but not quite; if you look close, the Rieger does not have the fins, and some of the edges are too sharp, the Rieger is more rounded at the corners, could be a modified Rieger though, looks kinda like E63 style with the side vents and the point at the front.

So I'm guessing he must've changed the steering wheel too? Lol.

I wonder if the buttons actually work, and can control the stereo etc., or he just changed the wheel, and the buttons are just for show.
