As for your car...I took creative liberty, chopped berti's kit on your car, darkened the color slightly so that it's still a similar color to the door jambs and trunk and engine bay area if you respray the car. I also tinted the clear portion of your tail lights a bit, body colored the door handles and painted the rubber surround that really stood out around the front signal lights...ENJOY!!
lol, that does look good, thanks Zorro. as for the headlights i wanna change them out, i have the same one's as berti with hid's in them (chrome not black) but i hate them, i like the light output (except the cutoff line) but they fit crappy. i'm considering doing something different and retrofitting some true projectors in a different headlight assembly..

If you are adding pearl, you are repainting the car. Might as well go darker if you like my chop and will repaint anyway. Calgary Coachworks is great, but if you take it to Exotic Cars International, talk to the owner, Ernst and tell him Mark with the black 300E sent you...he does amazing work...I need a front bumper respray on the amg and I wish there was an Ernst in Vancouver

Here are my lights with TSX projectors:




As far as Ernst goes, he does great work, isn't CRAZY expensive if you tell him I sent you but you WILL wait to get in to get the work done...

Well, call Exotic and try to book a spot, then when the kit gets here, you could get right in, provided the delivery date of the kit is on target.
