Las Vegas ML 430

Saw this at a show in Vegas this last weekend. First I have ever seen like it. A father just had this built for his 16 year old daughter.

doesnt look like anything special...just a cheap paint job and even cheaper wheels.

i thought the paint job was pretty sharp....not what I would have done, but it was by a reputable artist.

I had just never seen an ML with graphics.

My bad if I though these were pictures that might be interesting to some. I guess I was wrong.
