Crafty Built 211 v2 (pictures!)
The build thread didn't go to well... so maybe the picture thread will be better? Anyway, had a friend call me up asking to take some pictures of my freshly built 211, we hit the wash and then drove around a little until we found a decent spot

I used to hate the stretched tire look, and while it's not for me, once Crafty put me in my place a little - when I called him out on it in another thread - it started to make more sense to me. Then I started to really like it on certain cars. Your car looks great man, and while I never thought the stretched/cambered fitment would look good you pulled it off SUPER well bro, classy, sleek, and super low. Looks sexy and still very drivable! Perfect stance.
...yeah man bottom line get a job so you can afford the right width of tire. idiot.

i just honestly don't really understand people when it comes to this game, i mean we all do the same thing no matter if it's a benz or if it's a honda or a maserati. everyone has different tastes cause we are all individuals, and idk why people can't see that. why people as a whole can't just be ENTHUSIASTS for the scene, as tuners and appreciate peoples work for what it is whether you like it or not... and this isn't even geared towards you affaltbach, a lot of people on this site are like this
but the side skirts are actual the only piece on the car that is not oem... i picked them up from suvner (i think that's how it's spelled) i couldn't find oem side skirts to save my life! they fit real good, and he sells them for $200 new
just wrapped up a shoot yesterday for an upcoming feature i'll have new pics soon!

Sure man I know you picked up on my sarcasm there at the end =) starting to think the same way about it that you do, because in my opinion and as I've said before your car is your story - you let someone else write the book on it you're just going to end up with the same boring stock look on your car that lacks any sort of character. Great build man.

Sean's Sister--
nice build, how much you think you'd spent since you said it was a budget build?
i was thinking of picking up a w211and doing a similar route but in a white exterior...
