Ya know, I looked at the front and thought, "hmm, that looks pretty good".
The first side shot though made me cringe.
Front and back are fine, side is a disaster

WTF! Why would you do such things? Personally, I am rather biased, but I really do think the W220 looks better than the W221. I thought the Maybach looked pretty cool but the W221 somehow didn't translate well. And as for this thing it only translates to ugh!

That looks HORRIBLE....Wow, the front and back look straight W221 but the side is BARF.
What imbocile would do that? Especially for that price? You'd have to pay me $22,000 to have that done to my Car, seriously.
I don't understand how some people just want what's "new" for the sake of it, without the least bit analyzing the situation with some simple taste tactics....I mean, a car is designed with certain lines, and curves, etc. Beautiful Cars flow and match perfectly. For example, as much as I like the 07+ facelifted E-Classes, I even find them a bit odd looking from a front-side angle, as the sides are clearly sleek and rounded out, then all of a sudden it looks like a sharp edged pointy front end was rigged onto it....Again, M-B did a good job of matching the two styles pretty damn well, but it does clash a tad IMO. Then you look at an '03-'06, and regardless of which you'd prefer stylistically, there's no question the Car matches and flows immaculately.
But back to the topic, yeah, that looks like ****.

This really makes no sense! You can get a post face lift w220 with low miles for 25k and you can get this horrible kit for 22K, that is an awful lot ($47k). I have already seen some w221s going for $54k on cars.com, this is very silly. I am not advocating buying the cheapest car on the internet but the difference is not that great especially when taking into account the type of car being purchased.
