Nice exterior work on this SL500
Was browsing through EBay looking at modded cars and came across this thing: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6338

At first I thought it was a Ferrari due to the wheels, but once I opened the page I was blown away. I am not a fan of Lorinser, but must admit that the sideskirts and the grille add a nice touch to the FAB Design bumpers.

Rims look pleasing to the eye, but the front bumper and rear bumper take it all away. The side skirts would be better suited on a slightly toned down front and rear.

I would go with a full conversion and not a mix and match ...

I guess some people seek to stand out from the rest at any cost.
