Some weird european C43's
I found this C43 to have a 330KM/H speedo, weird huh?

And this C43 has the greatest factory paint I've ever seen on an AMG car minus the tail lights that looks like crap.

Don't know how I feel about that wheels are number two. I love the red and black int though. Nice. I hate those LED red and clear tails. Should have at least kept them smoked.

what do you prefer between your car's stock cool lookin' taillights or that red c43 beast with nasty lookin' tailights?
I think and this is my personal opinion, they stink, they are ugly lookin' taillights!
don't you agree?
if they were smoked I bet they would look cool, the white contrast doesn't look any good and doesn't fit this car's sexy lines.
this is by far the nicest color I've ever seen on a c43, so rare and delicious!

1,) Nothing weird about it. That car has after market rims, suspension, grille, and turn signals. The owner obviously decided to switch out the speedo....
2.) I question the "stock paint job". Again the car is modified with rims, trunk spoiler, window spoiler, tail lights. grille, lighted sill plates, and turn signals. Are you sure they didn't get the car painted and the interior done?

And yes again, i'm into photography, but i don't have much equipment. It's an expensive hobby, just like automotive!
And thanks for the compliment, but my photos are mediocre compared to those i hang around with

that red one , has genuine rims check the AMG stamp on one of the rim pictures, interior is designo red/black, many of the other stuff is aftermarket.
if this is not a factory paint, then stripping the complete car is necessary to make it look original?

I've seen those Benzes with alot of stuff like necklaces and stuff hanging on the RVM and I know these people are from middle east or from Turkey.
Many peepol are superstitious therefore they have their necklace with a cross or other ornaments of their god protecting them when driving therfore having your protector with you is a good thing.
there are lots of maniacs on the roads some might be high as a chimney when they drive their cars causing axxidents.
I know because I was almost killed by a savage on drugs that comes from middle east!
I can tell you for sure it's no fun!

You linked the same ones! And yes, those are it. I did replace the turn and reverse bulbs with tower LED's though, so those aren't included; you get regular incandescent bulbs normally

I'm curious as well. Not sure what happened, but my brake light portion is warped from bulb heat. And I use regular wattage bulbs. So I want to replace them with the LED ones we're talking about. Also, does it trigger the "bulb is out" light or keep it off?

Yes, the rear fog light function is still available. The LED's will get brighter, but obviously only on the left side, just like OEM fog tails. No bulb out error either. For $110 on ebay you can't really lose much even if you don't like them. I bought these in 2007 for $210 out the door, that stinks compared to now.
