White S63 AMG W/Designo Interior
These are 20 x 8.5 hyper-silver CLS AMG replica rims by MB Designs? I went stock for a while after my lowenharts were peeling and bent but when I saw this like new set of rims go for $550 I couldn't resist! What do you guys think? ..and I know, that 20" emblem on the fender has to go..just haven't figured out yet how to remove them without harming the paint..

also, i'm going to buy mercedes centercaps. do you guys know if i need to remove all the rims again just to install them from behind or can i change them from the front? thanks

Pics of my car. All work done by Harbor Motor Sports in Santa Ana, California.
Here is what I had done over the weekend to my 2002 S430:
Updated to DEPO headlights (new style)
HID 6000K
Updated LED mirror lights
Lowering links
Painted Grill black
Painted hood grill black
Body color matched front side markers
Blacked out back emblems (I didn't debadge, I want to represent the S430 and keep it real :thumbup: )
Still need:
New rear lights ('03 and above version)
Tint the red part of the newer style tail lights
Retrofit new projectors in the headlights
Before:
On lift with all older lights

Slammed

Final Product:
Painted front grill, hood grill, and body color matched side bumper markers, blacked out back emblems, lifted the car up a tad

I actually purchased my headlights on Ebay. There is a seller that sells DEPO brand, which is the brand I used on both of my cars. I purchased my other set of DEPO at Auto Dynamic. They work well, just need to retro a new projector lens for my HID.
