I couldn't find a barf bag, now i need a new shirt.

I don't even know where to begin. Top down? Front to back? Side to side? How about it all? Hell, even that spoiler on the top looks awful.

Can you say tasteless? Yes, it's spelled l-o-r-i-n-s-e-r. Never been a fan of their stuff, but this drives in the final nail.

I understand people's individual tastes, but OMG... Keep the wheels, and loose the ghetto fenders...

It just doesn't flow......I like some of Lorinser's kits, but this one definitely hit the ****ter. I'll take mine in its natural beauty, thank you.

Thumbs down

What is Lorisner design dept thinking?
Don't they know that majority of SL buyers would be someone in the mid 30's or older.
The design might work on a Honda civic where most teenagers would love it and could aford it.

It looks like it's not just the fenders which are changed by this hideous design. The doors also have creases so it looks like they are changed as well. Who in the world is going to bother?

These styling companies are just parasites. If they contributed even a tiny proportion of the design innovation which Mercedes-Benz do themselves, I'd be a little bit interested but they don't, so I'm not.

I don't know what the equivalent is of "Get a Life", but whatever it is, they should do it.
