I agree the rear of the car looks sick! Love the huge tires out back. The rears need a big brake kit though the stockers on the SL500 are not filling up those HUGE rear wheels! The car looks really nice, would be great to have the 2 Misha widebodies do a photoshoot after SEMA!!!

Correct the 1 above is an SL500, my SL600 will look literally the SAME though, I 1st thought it had to be Matte blk but after these latest pix I'm 110% SOLD after staring @ this masterpiece for hours & comparing to other Matte Blk wrap or paint jobs on SL65 BS, this FLAT grey/silver color DOMINATES...

The difference in these Mishadesigns kits vs OEM SL65 BS cars (besides the obvious diff's in bodywork etc to the trained eyes here) are the HUGE presence of Carbon Fiber accents/multi-vents everywhere, that coupled w/gloss blk wheel lips & shiny heavily tinted windows give sooo much contrast to the FLAT paint it INMYOP gives the car a totally new unseen look of rolling art vs Matte blk creations as Matte blk has a small bit of sheen to the paint IE semi-gloss effect.

In order to make these kits REALLY POP w/ALL the shiny Carbon Fiber, it needs a FLAT color or an exotic unusual gloss paint like Vincent used on his SL55 build w/liquid metal Designo paint (again just my opinions)

I am stunned. I never thought I would like a kit as much as the OEM BS...but these are amazing and I will take back everything I said about the oversized vents, cartoonish-ness, etc...these are stunning.
