I wanted a lorinser kit and I got price and it was like 12 grand without out paint and labor. My dad friend owns a body shop and told me to stay away from kits because they never kit right even if here made for benZ and my car is black so the paint will be hard to match up since my car is 5 years old......

I've done plently of kits on many of cars -- high-end, low-end, Ferrari, Benz, Rover to Honda and Toyota. It is ALL in the body guy. Some parts fit better than others, naturally, but a good bodyshop can do wonders no matter how old the car.

And FYI the Lorinser kit is about $13K + paint and labor.
