  the 1 above is the later picture as you can see, this is how it looks so far, needs a bit more attention though. |

What do you mean might, deffo not for a merc of any sort. I have to say it,s very easy to go ott with mods but when it comes to spoilers and body kits less is more unless you have an evo then it can do what it looks like it can do.

back in your cage snake, dont tear the newbie apart just yet  imagine the wing is painted white... there, now thats better <_< welcome to the forum sid, sit down put your feet up, and chill out. I must say since it was mentioned recently I cant help noticing orange indicators clash with red. I like the tints, is that home done film or proffesional ? Any idea what grade its just what I am aiming for. |

Welcome to the forum Sid
Another 190D, shrekky will be pleased to here that, we have not many diesels here That pic looks like a photoshop? Just look where the back wheel meets the tarmac. The spoiler is a no-no I would have to agree but the rest of the kit will look well when colour coded. Have you anymore plans for her?  PS the window tints look great, as you can see I am a fan of that mod

thanks for your oppinions people.. i was unsure about the wing, its a bit ott especially for a oil burner, lol. the front indicators need changing too its 1 of my jobs too do,along side a grille conversion and a new suspension set up and maybe a evo rear window spoiler what do you think and eventually a full respray in black (yeah we all know black looks best)but thats a long way off will blow the kit in red for now.. oh and as for the tint its a home job the grade im not sure, it had just got black on the box i think, but ill try to find out ive goto get another roll to finish the back........ |

oh man not another one, dude don't tell me you gonna take off the wing cause this guys said they don't like it, here's the question do you like it? bother yourself with what people say, it's your car, your money, your taste don't modify your car for somelse modify it for yourself. every 190 forum i have been to hates spoilers on any 190, unless it's either a cosworhh, evo1 or evo 2 spoiler which are without a shadow of a doubt are all ugly as sin on a 190, but because they where made by mercedes it's okay to put one on spare me the double standards, personally i don't like spoilers of any kind on any car, i don't car who made them they are called spoilers for a reason, but if thats your thing ehh keep it now thats my 2 pence |

or you could just move it more towards the rear of the car. so its not so central. but this is my personal opinion. i must say that Taint is right in what he says. why should we all judge this just because its not what we would "normally" stick on our cars. your car your money and your individual style. your choice just don't paint it white :lol: |

We won't be. Our cars are nice - that's the difference. Keith with his hydraulics and paint job etc did get nailed, but there are no chav cars on this site. Apart from said spoiler in this thread.

thats quite a nice body kit actually, Are you going to fill the 2 holes at the front or leave them open ? have you lost the towing point cover too ? Its nice though, I notice you didnt take any shots from the back

No the two holes are air ducts, and the towing eye cover was not with the kit when i brought it might try and get intouch with hella for that though. As for the rear shots need to finish off the bumper first |
