I agree completely, the AMG bumber looks and fits the lines of the car so much better than this aftermarket POS. Aftermarket "lambo" doors look rediculous on all cars period... not to mention add like 100lbs to an already heavy car. Where are the chrome 22's though? The guy probably didn't have the car long enough to get there lol. I guess its true that money can't buy taste...

Not my style either

The doors are totally bogus on a SL55. Just dumb.
The front end is hideous compared to a stock AMG.

Great mileage for a 2004. Something weird about this car
and its mileage and price. Wonder what the Carfax looks like ?

I thought you couldn't get a wood trimmed wheel on the SL55. Was that added or am I misinformed?

I am not big on body kits. The AMG looks are just right. I go back and forth on the doors....I kind of like them, but I doubt that I would do it. I had a Diablo for a while and the doors are definitely an attention getter...so the owner of this SL had better be an extrovert.

The front bumper looks very out of place without the rest of the kit (although the whole kit is quite ugly too), IMO Lamborghini doors should only be on a Lamborghini, and adding an SL500 wheel all mix together, giving this poor SL a "better be cheap" title to it!
