I personally don't like it. Fake pano roof on a car that never CAME with a pano roof is just odd, it breaks up the car in an unflattering way and the black quarterpanel strips just look out of place.

Nah.

lots of cars
I'm sure the angles he shot the pictures just make it look weird. I'm doing the black roof on my w202 because the black sunroof sticks out a lot.

You need to wrap the roof trim with black glossy vinyl. I did it on the moldings of my w202 and it looks good.

Yes, but the difference is, my mods look good.

I wasn't insulting in my post, no need to be a childish a$$hol3.

PS what funny grille?

PPS fix your caps lock, king screamer.

You must be a REAL classy individual - so full of attack - I bet your mother is proud of you.

1. Grow up? You are kidding right? Have you read your OWN posts here?
2. Get a car? I have had several, many that are MUCH better than your 500E could ever be.
3. Have people hook me up? Why? I'm not a panhandler like you seem to be, I do it all on my own.

Congrats on turning your thread into a bigger joke than you are...RBYCC is classy, learn from him before you get all defensive and whiny on a public forum where people are allowed to voice their personal opinions.

I am not your friend. Learn, random, learn.

Truly unbelievable, even for a n00b like you.

Read my first post. I was not rude, your ego just got bruised so your little mind needed to attack me. You are clearly too ignorant to hold a conversation with, so enjoy your thread...."friend"

Nah.
fake pano roof? Mercs never came with those Jap headlights either but I do not see people out bashing your car. Lots of things that aren't my fancy but I do not go and publicly bash people about their ride. You were just speaking for another member just a few threads ago. Most enthusiasts stay true to the brand. To each their own

I have a big ego boss! It cant get bruised! I see cars on this forum that i dont like but i keep it to myself! IF THAT PERSON LIKES THERE CAR, THEN I LOVE IT! I dont post pics to hear that you like it or you dont! i post them because if someone wants to do the same thing, but is unsure! They can see the outcome! I would never negatively talk about anyones car! IF YOU HAVE NOTHING NICE TO SAY DONT SAY ANYTHING!!!
please kindly skip my threads from now on! PLEASE friend!
