Equal gaps on wheel openings is how I roll. Lowered on V2 ELM. -2.0 front, -1.4 rear.

Looks good Nick. Murdered look compliments the car well. a painted to match front lip would be money.

Equal gaps are my preference which equals raked on this car. No one likes a saggy but. My car goes deep in its squats anyway.

Thanks! I actually bought the car with all of the bright work, wheels, and lights blacked out. If I don't pick up a set of wheels soon I'm going to refinish the stockers to a dark gray metallic and paint the calipers Lamborghini giallo midas.

A dark gray metallic like this?

not quite Nissan K11, but close! Great thing about having a paint shop is I can come up with anything I can imagine.

Mine has a slight rake, I think it looks ok. But, if you have a lip you wont like it... I think my car is way too low. It feels very ricey and boy racer to be driving around this low in a mercedes. I cant wait to raise it up via star. Just want it a tad lower then stock.. I think will be just right.

Nick...LOVE that look. My wife said, "I wouldn't be seen in that! It's too gangsta!" So, I know it RULES!
Can you elaborate on some of the details to black everything?

As I mentioned earlier in the thread, I did buy the car with that paint work prior. But to replicate it, you just need to be sure to tape surrouding areas of what you want to paint, scuff up all the chrome bits well with a red scuff pad, mask off any areas you don't want to paint, and have someone paint and clear them. the same goes for the lights and badging. I ended up removing all the badges minus the rear star and the flat hood badge. most body shops will be able to make the lights as dark or as light as you want or even do a little something different with them like the previous owner did for my tail lights. I'll try to put a pic of the tails illuminated tonight.

As far as the murdered out look...It's not my prefered way to roll, but I found the car super cheap and sometimes the looks are great, other times I could really do without the extra attention the car attracts.
