Need to Make Some Changes

The stock rims and the black stuff on the bumpers and side skirts are really starting to look worst and worst on the car. Any ideas on wut rims and kit i should get on my car? for a body kit i don't want fiber glass...breaks way too easily.

Fiberglass is somewhat fragile, but you don't have many options without using it. You can get the AMG kit that comes on the 430 or 55, and I think the Lorinser kit isn't fiberglass as well. Other than that most of the other kits I know of (Carlsson, Dezent, etc.) are all fiberglass. I could be wrong though. I'm sure some of the other guys on here with more experience (i.e. Ben or Bruce) would be able to help you further.

Whether the kit is fiberglass or not, if you hit it hard enough to break a fiberglass kit, you're on your way to the body shop anyways. Get the kit based on 1. looks 2. quality 3. price.
