Hype - looks great and have to say that I've never seen anyone get a costume for their car. Pretty cool and glad you are having some fun with it. Did you ever think of putting a matte black jack-o-lantern face on the hood? Now that would be funny!

That was my first thought. It looks like an Orange cab, right down to the black wheels.

I'm coming in late on this: was this a father's gift to his or daughter?

I think it looks awesome, definitely need to get rid of the star grille. I think a matte black stock grill, no emblem and no emblem on the hood either... nice clean look,,, and lower it,,lol

thanx RR, did you know I have actually been daydreaming of a drop....and a tint......lights, windows....everything.....
couldn't agree more......
I really like the chrome strip gone and the window trim blacked out is very cool....I wish MB would give these little things as options.
I have a black trunk star coming soon too.....the dudes broke the other one taking it off, and it's held in with three little prongs too.....but this one will just stick on....
also got another stock grill, but I don't wanna paint that one.....might get the one I already painted touched up, but it bugs me because it has a lot of chips......does not look very smooth.......

thanx for the support

I knew I recognized this car from somewhere! I love the crash tester look, much more hardcore than those boring old E's.

[QUOTE=hyperion667;5409166]thanx RR, did you know I have actually been daydreaming of a drop....and a tint......lights, windows....everything.....

Hype, base on comment ^^^im just going to assume that the HI-VIZ mobile is a leased. You already know my car is blacker than ever and its a LEASE. Im turning it in just like this, murdered out . This is my 5th car with MB and I always painted something and tinted windows. When the lease is up , I turned them in the way it was. Not once I got charged by MB . My best friend who's been employed with MB for years told me that "as long as you're not removing any OEM parts and replacing them w aftermarket then u good. It is the same as you tinting your windows".On top of that MB will will allow you up to $500 worth of damages before they started charging you. Hope this helpsn

I hope my assumption was correct. If it is then PAINT THE STRPS !! If not then idk I guess your car looks sick!!!and HAPPY HALLOWEEN I GUESS

**BEFORE ANYBODY GETS TRIGGER HAPPY AND START BLACKING THEIR CAR OUT, PLEASE CHECK WITH UR SALESPERSON/DEALER***
