This is very general question.

I would like to know which brand name (Brabus, Lorinser, Carlsson, Auto Couture, or AMG) do you prefer in styling in "general."

don't take it one part by one part. I am asking in general.

Carlsson. AMG looks too stock and Brabus and Lorinser are too common. ;0)

Brabus - has the best quality of all, thats why they're so expensive.
AMG - is very good also, genuine MB parts!!
Carlsson - no one carries their product, or maybe I should say no one has ever carried their entire product line. Wait till they found a reliable distruibutor first!
Lorinser - their style are pretty old fashioned.

Just my opinon.
