Just so you know the value of the car, the rear bumper is an AUTHENTIC Carlsson RS rear bumper (at least thats what I was told).

The car is an 2002 with 41k on it. The interior is mint and the paint is glossy as hell, the car was kept extremely well. I paid $27,500 for it wholesale because I work for a used car dealership. I'm trying to find out how much the dealer that sold it to me gave simon for trade in value because I'm interested to see if they made/lost money on the deal.

Anyway, its a beatiful car and I love it. Ive never seen a benz with the lorinser fenders before.

I will try and post some updated pics asap.

Also, do you guys have any reccomendations as to what else I should add to the vehicle? I'm thinking the big benz grill with the flat hood ornament and a lorinser rear window spoiler if I can find one. LMK what you think.

Well I work at a used car dealership owned by my uncle. I buy my cars the same place they buy theirs, at dealer auctions. I pay way under retail. Thats how used dealerships make their money, they buy at auctions for wholesale prices and they sell for retail value. I am very lucky to have this hookup.
