Auto Couture Aristo Wheels Part 2 - Daytime

Being that I've gotten quite a few PMs about these wheels, I figured I'd post some one pics of how they look during the day for those interested...

Thanks. Yeah well...we all pose a little sometimes I guess. And besides, I didn't put a "pano roof" badge on my car now did I?

Thanks. The spoiler is actually an ebay spoiler that I painted black just to get an idea of how the CF spoiler would look.

I'm currently trying to get the OEM e63 CF spoiler from MBenzNL but I might just go with the Vorsteiner one with the CF insert...considering everyone seems to HATE my black spoiler....

Normally I absolutely dislike Pewter because it's old people's color, but with the black roof and color matched wheels is absolutely looks HOT!!! I love it!

Not quite as hot as yours...but thanks! I agree that Pewter is a bit too close the "desert silver" which seems to be invented for old people for some reason...

But I'm turning 30 this year so I guess I'm getting old anyway. I'm just glad I got the CLK BS in white since that's the color I originally wanted when I was shopping around for the e55.

Oh snap, you have a BS. Ok then you could have a desert silver E55, you'd still be cool lol.

You're car looks INCREDIBLE. Everything you've done has really brought out the crisp lines of the car, it looks so sharp and lean.

The only opinion I can give in regards to something I'd do it if I had it, would be either tint the tails to tie the look together in the back, or paint the lip monochromatic, but that's just me and the car is .

I was so upset when I basically had to pick up a Pewter car (it was near impossible finding AMG Packaged 350's and this one came up), as I hate ANYTHING that resembles gold in the least.... However now that I have it, I honestly wouldn't drive a 211 with any other color (OK I would but you get the point ), it's rare and with the right aesthetic tweaks it looks classy and sporty IMO.
