Everything on our cars isn't going to be loved by everbody.If when you look at your car you feel like you see your vision in front of you then thats all that matters. I'm not saying that godfather wasn't right or wrong but that was some heavy bashing for another mb owner just trying to show his hard work.

but i have over 200+ pictures from today's car show! whats the best image hosting site? i use image shack sometimes but it takes to long to host pix one by one. even their multi uploader isnt that good.

anyone know an image hosting site that can upload a lot of pictures at once, and host the pictures for a long time and uploads big file sizes too?????

quick question....

are those 265's or 275's on the rear? They look bulky for a 265.

just wondering because my tire swap will be happening this week and I wanted to know if they were 275's and if you were rubbing.

Did Hersh write this to you? I guess right. So then they are 275's.

I think the car looks good, but if hersh paint the wheels matte black the car would look 100 times better.

That gold lip looks cool but I was saying to keep the whole wheel black and just the break calipers gold.


OK...OK...no more trying to mod your car, it's your car and not mine. Sorry

black rims with gold lips look sick.. i just dont think gold contrasts well with your color car silver..

its like wearing silver chain with a gold charm..

not trying to hate homey it looks amazing.. the crazy thing is it can look even way better..

maybe do us a photoshop so we can see the diff? i would but i dunno how..

ya im almost positive ill like it better with the flat centers too wich is y i have never gotten rid of the original plan....itll look 10x more aggressive too....the gold theme just makes it a lil unique cuz the black wheels thing has been jus so common (but for a reason since it looks good i guess) ....n also since i bought the wheels in gold..id figure id rok em for a bit...n so i jus thru the lil accents in for now too...its all vinyl pinstripin so it could be taken right off after i powdercoat the wheels.....all just temporary

Hey! I know that car. He's from the bay area....I believe his SN is Ironic or something like that. That car is getting a wide body put on right now =)



Anyways, back on topic.....Hersh! Nice choice on the flat black portions of your car! It flows very well =)

But, DAMN!!!, you've taken 1/3 of the thunder out of my suprise I'm working on.....

Looks awesome bro 'hem! That gold stripe really makes everything work. I think the flat black wheels would be cool too, but if you left it like it is, the gold wheels are very different and in that weird way, really compliment the silver car as a whole.

If you do go flat black on the wheels, you'll have to lose that gold stripe too.
