MURDERED OUT THREAD?

Hi All!

Was wondering if there was a "murdered out" member thread? If not, can we start one?

Just picked up a Black 2015 E350 and wanted to do a "chrome delete"...Just curious if anyone has done this...
see if anyone out there has "Murdered out" their ride...

That trend is famous between San Francisco Russians.
I loved it (the trend) since they have been selling factory wheels for less that value of rubber on them.
But frankly.... from over 30 such MB I liked only 1.
Very easy to butcher the job, so be careful and good luck.
I think that tint is illegal in US. I have limo option on my car and it is much lighter on front.

That blacked out S class is sick.

If you want to do the trim , look for shadowline tape it comes in matte black and glossy black whichever u prefer.

never understood why people would de-feature the aesthetics of a car after paying a premium for those aesthetics. I guess this way you could wreck it and not notice???

I take that the owners did not had to work hard for their drives.
That black car on snow looks stupid with white headlights. Just my opinion.

That is for sure. I never could get Picasso's paintings neither.
But face it, that blacked car with plain white eyes is stupid.

Someone in the picture thread had a blacked out w212 with a nice front lip too. Hopefully he'll post some pics in this thread.

I'm no SF Russian mobster but i quite like my blacked out chrome. Black wheels would be too much for me but here's what I've got so far

From where did you get the lip?

No offence guys, but car left with white headlights, read taillights and with silver rims looks like project 1/2 started or 1/2 unfinished. White licence plate is not helping at all.
As I mention before, from tens of blackened MB I have seen in Bay Area, I liked only 1.
It is a skill.

Drive and modify what you enjoy, at the end of the day it doesn't really matter what anyone's opinion is.

Thank you. Mine was purposely bought to black out. It even has black leather with the black Ashwood trim inside.

I'm not completely blacked out but I'll have my car back hopefully this week from the body work getting done to make her perfect for summer and am excited to share what I've come up with for the time being

Hence why I said this is what I have so far. My silver rims definitely got to go, still finding a decent set of dark color wheels to slap on, I've already swapped out my white CA plates for the black and yellow style.

but like everyone said, each opinion to their own 👍

From a small company called Future Design. Customer support is a no go, treated me like a piece of dirt. I went into detail in another thread but that's not for here.

clk350 out,02 C270 CDI current 07 A170 out, Ml320cdi out!! GL 350 CDI, What a car !!!!!!
So , I'm Just Curious, how many people buy Es and Ss and then sport them up. What age group actually goes and buys a luxury car and sports it up. Personally , if i wanted to do up a car , it would'nt be a merc. I kind feel it looses it's dignity and respect. Specially the E, S and GL . I might take a chance with a C class or the A class but that's it.

i built my MY 2016 W212 E63S to my specs and took delivery few months later. Being mid twenties then I chose from the order to now keep it stock. All my vehicles are all stock with low miles. Drive them on occasion. I always get compliments from the enthusiasts depending which I'm driving for leaving them stock and not like a shopping cart on steroids.
