We'll just do pics in phases.
This is fresh from dealer with window tint.


PICTURES



The spoiler is on its way this week and the Asanti wheels should be on it in a month!

i've got my eye out for the perfect grille option(either painting black or possibly throwing a sportish model one on there.) as well as in desperate need of smoked or side markers.

Lastly,though I specifically requested that they didn't add the front license place they did and when I removed it to put in my bumper plugs(check Their website! i was SHOCKEd to see the most mangled front plate attempt ever. there must be 8-9 drill holes. UNREAL. I gotta keep the plate or get a new front bumper and it's not THAT important to me.
Enjoy!

Went with Autohouse's OEM W212 painted matched real spoiler. Seems like identical to everything else out there and was under $300 shipped etc. My salesperson at MB even told me to buy it there as it's the same as theirs but MB chages $591 + $175 installation.

Hey bigevil, I love the spoiler addition... I really think it defines the rear of the car.

Any plans to black out the thin chrome side door strip to match the grill?

Happy motoring.

not yet. I wanna see how the wheels affect the overall aesthetic. after that if it's still missing something I could do it, always an option but at present I like the contrast.

I vote blacking out the chrome on the doors. Not only does that piece always annoy me as it makes no real sense in how its angled, but I look at the front of your car and see this cool dark, clean look, then the side molding kind of messes with that.

I'd do a light tint on the tails too, IMO you'd have a very sinister and clean looking 212!
