Fabulous kit questions

The thing really fits an older pre facelift w210? all the sites indicate it will and ive read some older posts in 2005 that indicated it would fit but i just need some current reassurance cause i dont see that front bumper attaching correctly.

I like the kit dont give me **** about it, if you dont like it then continue not buying it.

If it is the correct kit for the w210

it will fit.
Are you going to install the Fabulous license plate also?

And at $1700 We will continue not buying it.

Be sure to pick up the spoiler wing kit...completes the ricer look

I have seen better looking ricers!

I

was only pulling your leg.
No offense meant by it.
Sorry
Not my cup of tea,it just always seems,on the kits I have seen installed that it looks like a problem with ground clearance.Some of the other kits give some more protection.
you're correct,my comment was OOL.

I agree, I don't really like the Fab kit either but everyone has their own style so to each his own. I do agree with Zed though and love the AutoCouture kit, that thing is HOT!!!

That's it

You pointed it out perfectly,Smooth lines!The wald kit flows in curves and makes the car look smoother and sleek.The other kit boxes it up a bit to much.

The Fab kit looks like it is trying to change the whole appearance of the car. If you don't like the general look of the car get a different car. The Wald and auto couture kits take what Mercedes sent from the factory and make slight improvements instead of trying to cover it up and start over.

The fab kit is hawt. But.....i would never roll around like that 24/7. You better get air ride if you want that kit. Dont mind ohlord, hes a meat head in a german disguise. lol
