Love it or Hate it

 

Anyone else have a black or carbon fiber(vinyl) roof?

 

ya i saw those pics of it n kinda mad wen i saw its new look cuz its really similiar to what i have planned but its kool lol ...its pretty nice and respect the amount of work put into it but theres a lot that i would change.......that carlsson front fits like a frikin gloveee tho..jealous

my roof should be flat black within a week or two...along with some other body parts...

 

definitely BIG UPS for the creativity =)

Not feeling the wheels, tinted head lights, and completely blacked out tails.....

 

painting it? i'm considering a cf vinyl for about $200.

 

im likin that the only think i dont really like about it is the back bumper and the exhaust is in the middle otherwise i like the car its lookin real clean and slick.

 

BAD ACE! I love every bit of it. Great creativity.

 

I have a black roof on my silver CLK430

 

Wish you had some pic of the interior.

 

The black roof is nice. Anyone else running on NO spring pads??

 

Hmmm nice ... If you don't mind telling, what's the estimate from the body shop?

Also did you post pictures of your quad exhaust here? I might be interested in doing that as well.

Thanks

 

Where do you get the CF vinyl from?

 

im getting it vinyled ..not painted so its no really permanent...so no bodyshop..i had asked my bodyshop before tho and he said 300 for the roof

na i didnt post pics of the quad setup yet cuz i dont really like it too much with the AMG rear bumper..im gunna post pics probably next week after the new rear is on

i hear CF roof vinyling doesnt go well at all....its hard gettin the right vinyl to bend and stretch the way u need for the roof and i heard it doesnt look good after either...try looking into it and good luck tho..post pics if u do it

 

wait you guys mean your just going to get a vinyl sheet put on your roofs?

 

wow i think its great.... might just be a little to low but still love the black

 

i am woundering that too? i am about to do that as well..... yay nayy???

 

I've had no spring pads for a while now and everyone on here seems to think it is taboo and crazy when it's fine.

 

hey so its not noisy or anything?

 

Do you drive your car hard?

 

No noises.

 

I used to but not anymore, I want to take care of it now.

 

you really doing it flat black??? do you have a sunroof?

i'm painting mine this monday but thought about flat black but it'll look ugly ithink

 

Is that car even driven? i.e. All show, no go?

 

yeah i thought it might look weird cuz the glossly lookin sunroof but it has to tie in with my whole flat black theme....plus i seen it in flat and it still looks good to me...

 

I'm getting an estimate to get my entire car painted flat black since I'm getting fender work done with some new massive lips I'm adding right now to my wheels.

The old rear lip will be added to the front and the new rear lip will go on the rear wheels.

19x9.5 = 3" lip
19x11.5 = 4.5" lip

It should look really crazy to because I will be stretching my tires for that VIP look but on a CLK. I'll be rolling a hybrid style car.
