Are the wheels in matte black? Looks like you're going after the "murdered out" look and if so you should black out the rest of the exterior chrome trims including the grill....might even think about black-chrome on the side/rear badges...and definitely PAINT the amber side markers body color (dont even waste your time/money getting the clear ones, it just looks horrible if not cheap) most importantly, with the blacked out wheels...please lose the hood star, you either want to go with a more sporty theme or just stay with the classy look...its hard to mix the two

yes i am going to do everything (all the chrome trim) and i am going to smoke both front, back and side lights. having the shop also take off the hood star and fiber glass it and repaint it, i think it will look very clean after that.

smoke the headlight/rear lights but PAINT the amber side marker solid black so it looks deleted and NOT smoked....there's a reason why euro-spec W221's dont have these ugly looking amber side markers!!! (besides the lame DOT reg.)

Nice cars you have...I guess the cali plate explains it all (with the all black theme) but you might want to consider lowering them a bit??

blacked-out is so played-out

I saw a blacked-out ford fusion. it looked as classy as a blacked-out mercedes.

conversely, a blacked-out mercedes looks as classy as a blacked-out fusion.

maybe i'm too old to appreciate it?

I went back and looked at your car again and I think the reason I don't like the wheels is 1. I don't like black wheels in the first place but 2. I think it is because it is a flat , non-glossy black which makes it looks like something off of a military jeep.

The smoked out lenses look good but again something I would not personally do. Do the lights (both front and rear) lose any brightness due to the smoked out effect??

yes, they do looks brightness, i would never make the front like as dark as the rear, but in my mind, it looks terrible the red lights, theres no redon the whole car and it just looks weird..im having a light film put on the front witch doesn't dim the brightness to any noticeable extent, just makes it look much more stealthy..

Honestly, I just don't believe the original poster. I smell a troll.

There are some very obvious signs, which I don't want to point out, but i don't believe him.

what don't you believe? that he did that to his beautiful S? I believe it completely. This is mild compared to what many jokers have posted on here. They should save stuff like this for Es and Cs

ok, stop pouting, Mr(s). E-owner and Mr(s). C-owner. I kid!
