That's exactly the type of modified benz that a person ends up with when they're not part of a benz forum.

See the problem with having those 'balconies' for side skirts is that you know some idiot is gonna step on it thinking that its what its for, then snap! /cry

On a side note, the trimming inside is fine just not the right colors...

If that is true then the seller must have been hurting for $$$ because all that work in the car is a lot more than $15K based on the billable hours (@ $80/hr), equipment, upholstery, bodywork, wheels and tires.

That said...the body kit is too much. I like a body kit that looks like it was not added on...the color scheme is questionable too.

Whoever pd $15k got a steal...

i think it was good at one point then just kinda went NEEEEEEEAAAAARRRRRROOOOPPP! like a falling plane

color is the first bad thing, TOO MUCH red, should put hot lips and fingertips on the back window.

IF the car was a darker color with not as many screens and more subtle while sporty interior I think it would look alot better. The kit on the outside aint the worst widebody ive seen, if it were a dark color the lines would be softened and disguised and help it look better

definately overkill tho, poor car. poor girl who goes out with that guy cause he is probably overkill in every aspect, cologne, gel, clothes etc haha...im gonna stop before my comment catches this overkill bug
