ROFL.

This guy is a hoot. I believe I was the first person to post on his bumper here on how hideous and unfathomably ugly it was. I would actually pay someone to take that bumper if I owned it and its "ricey" status as far away as possible. He was lucky to pull $3300 because it looks like it has been in a wreck.

All i can say is

My favorite is the FOOTBALL SIZED ROCK that he hit.

You guys are talking about the bumper but are missing the best part of the ad:

If I could keep it, I would get the newer AMG wheels, clear HID headlights and the bumper trim to finish off the look. The rear bumper has been modded to fit the e55 dual exhaust, but I do not have the exhaust yet. Needs the bumper trim and foglights (can be found on ebay).
Please message me if you would like to to source the parts, I have found almost everything it needs for just over $500


It needs a few parts including: control arm, control arm bolt, lower cooling line($25), rear view mirror, airbag reservice, radiator lower support.
Should be towed unless you put some work into it. I have driven it, but it will shake @ ~45mph, and it is illegal to drive with the windshield cracked. I start it up once a week, but have not driven it since bringing it out of my storage garage for summer, so I would also suggest checking/changing fluids.
Since when does an airbag service and windshield alone cost less than $500 in parts, much less labor. Joe Schmo can't install airbags or a windshield.

What a tool... this car would cost twice as much to repair as he is asking for the whole thing, 2006 Racing Kit Conversion and all.

My favorite parts:

- Blown airbag, and he's still driving with it blown
- Cataracts in headlights.

You think before he did a photoshoot he would at least take care of these two huge eyesores

Agree, but then again, maybe he's only driving during the day, at less than 45MPH. All the better for his admirers to notice the rare '06 AMG racing front end.

Even a blind person could pull off a better job.

I think it could use some superfly headlight surrounds and landau vinyl top.

Cheers !
