honestly this is still too "kitted" for me...if one is going for the widebody/sl black look i think the prior design "SL BlackEdition V2" is the way to go. they had the widebody one that had the fog lights where the black just has mesh but they fixed that and added a little bit here and there and made and absolutely perfect car. it damn near looks like an option straight from the mb site. here is the link:http://www.sub5zero.com/prior-design...wouldnt-build/
the only thing i would change is the little black splitters on the corners of the front bumper...it gives it that misha look which i honestly tried very hard to like. sarona, who everybody dubbed a failure due to its poor quality and lines that werent in sync seemed like a better idea; if it was given to a reputable shop that put work into it rather than some jerk who tried to rip off the consumer with lies on top of lies, it might have succeeded and made some money. i know that this is merely an opinion and EVERYBODY that had their car done by misha is over the hill happy due to their professionalism and dedication to getting the car as perfect as possible for their consumer but i just cant look at an sl with the misha "racer look" and want to put it on my car. everyone who works at misha or anyone that has had their car done by the company please appreciate my post as merely an opinion, a minority opinion at that based on the success that ya'll have achieved, and not at all a personal affront to the quality of work or dedication that the msiha teams, as well as their owners, put into their cars.

The back bumper looks a little ricey but the front and sides from Misha are the business!

beauty is of course in the eye of the beholder but... i am sorry- this is just too much... especially the flared front air intakes. makes it look like a kit car.

The hood as displayed will not fit any of the 2003-2007 r230. The headlight profiles are very different.

You are correct.

I need to be more precise with my answers

The hood is a bolt on replacement for any 2009-2012 model but for the 2003-2008 you need to do a front end conversion (face lift) change the headlights, bumper, etc...

The hood and rear bumper fins are optional, nobody however ordered a kit without them yet so we do not have pics of that look
