im planning to get a body kit next week for my w210 but i dont know which one should i go for....any suggestion guys? i drive a 99 e320.

wald version 2/ amg 00-02/ brabus 95-99/ carlsson v1/ auto couture/ lorinser v1.........?

sjevo

Lorinser. Too many AMGs on the street.

VIP ONE

which one? lorinser sportline 95-99, lorinser sportline 00-up, or lorinser add on kit?

I think the OEM AMG package on 00-02 is the best. I've seen almost every kit out there, at the end, it's the AMG one that still catch my eyes the most

i like the AMG 00-02 that looks the best on these cars. The other kits look to me like aftermarket kits while the AMG looks perfect with the nice factory look.

I'm looking myself for that kit...where did you find it and how much are you getting it for?

hubert

Carlsson or Wald.

C-2

I like the AMG look too and will also be looking for a kit very soon (already got AMG 18" Monoblocks). Just a classic look.

i have an e55 with the amg kit it gets old after a while i bought a lorinser kit a while back and just got it last week im thinkin if i do it right it will look 10X better then the AMG kit when im done personal opinion though

VIP ONE

are you planning to sell your amg body kit (00-02)? if you do, im interested.

VIP ONE

i like the wald exchange v2 also but the authentic one costs a grip unless i could find a use one up for sale.

are you going to change your hood, fenders, hood supports etc for the front bumper? or are you going to cut the top of the 00-02 amg bumper and install it? I have a 00-02 bumper thats been laying around in my garage but I am unsure if I want to cut it to fit.

VIP ONE

im thinking that way too. im not planning to change my hood, fenders, etc. you think if i cut the bottom half, would still fit good.?

VIP ONE

btw, how much you wanna let it go for?

I too think the 00-02 AMG kit is tops. But, after all is said and done, it comes down to personal preference. Good luck....

Go with the Wald. Too many of the AMG kitted machines on the road. You definitely want a kit to make you stand out from the bunch. That's the one that I was going to go with before I sold my bad-boy.

brabus has the old classic look
lorinser pre 00 i don;t like
carlsson is nice ---- but don't get it....lol
amg---can't go wrong with it.....
wald---looks hot and new
auto couture----forget about it.......you'll be lucky if you find it or get it.....believe me i've been to the earth and back on this kit

husk323

If you end up going with the 00+ AMG front bumper please post pictures, I don't think I have seen pictures of a 00+ AMG front bumper on a 96-99 w210.

Alexbenz

not worth the money to make it look a 00+ on a pre 00

Mr. Benzito

I have a 97 e420, and was thinking the same thing - to get a bodykit, but it seems as though they are difficult to locate some of the more classy looking kits.

Could anyone recommend any websites that sell any of the kits aforementioned (wald, brabus, amg, lorinser, etc.)

Personally I like the look of the Lorinser and Carlsson, but can't find these two kits ANYWHERE for sale. Only a rear fender or something at most, and I have some Lorinser 19" LM-1 that would go well with it. Oldie but goodie rims!!

Air Marshall Eldritch

I have the AMG kit and I think it looks pretty good, although I would have added some vertical sheet metal to the side skirts behind the rear wheels.

And one poster above mentioned that AMG is too common. In my state, I have never seen another one in 7 years of ownership. Not a single one.

i went to a local car shop in my area yesterday. they said they could get me a wald exchange v2 replica for $1500 painted and installed. do u guys think its worth it? i have second thoughts here coz it might look like shiet. i dont trust fiberglass unless its polyurethane.

45acp

$1500 installed for a wald kit seems like a very cheap price-unless it's a replica kit or something.

speaking of replica......if anyone is interested in the lorinser kit for a w210, i came across these fenders on ebay, but am weary on the quality....anyone have experience or know the ppl who make these?

VIP ONE

no doubt its a replica! its fiberglass. thats what im thinking too. im kinda worried about the quality and fitment.

The Godfather

dont buy replica. VIP ONE, I'm selling my AMG kit, do you wanna buy it? If so let's talk and do this ASAP We'll even talk about that Brabus CF lip I have (only one known to be outside of Germany).

cneedham810

If VIP ONE is not interested, I am. VIP ONE let me know if you are not going to buythe kit.
