Haha that pic is so true. Ima have to send it to my mom. Haha. N I agree, the widebody is overkill n too much, but hey, the guy took time n money and pride in an MB. I think anyone who decides to make their MB noticeably different deserves respect and a pat on their back for a good job. It's not easy picking and buying parts, it's expensive and time consuming. I give the guy props for being brave n standing out. Cuz u have to admit in a row of customized w208's, this one is going to stand out the most no matter how u feel about it.

I do like the rest of the car minus the widebody n Carlsson euro plate lol. Love the wide wheels (which can only be achieved with a widebody)

agreed... the kit surely took some time and great body work for the blending and all... just not my taste... i didnt mean to come off rude but i like to think our cars should be a class above the standard "jdm" fads

Does that mean all the Black series models are ricer crap? Actually in Europe a lot of people wide body their European cars so it's not a JDM thing, and most automakers are jumping the "wide body" wagon.

Although I don't like the widebody, it is, at least to me, done with Benz class. The fenders are molded on, not sticking on. The paint is immaculate as well as the rest of the quality of work on the car. There aren't dings and dents all over or drilled on parts. If anyone did a widebody aftermarket, this is one of the best quality ones done mated to a car that looks exceptionally prestine in condition and overall condition.
