    I think it looks kinda butty. The lines aren't sharp and the panel gaps look off. Looks like the quality of paintwork you'd see on a rattle canned 240.

    In other words its JDM baller as fuck.

    THIS CAR IS HOT!

    I would only flat black a nice car, cuz if not, people think its a primered POS..

    I thought about vinyl wrapping mine, because it would protect the paint from scratches and rock chips, and look cool until I get tired of it.. Well I wanted to do it until I got a estimate of $3,000.. $600 maybe, but $3k?

    I saw a previous gen C class, the other day in Tampa, with the bottom half of the AMG bumper painted flat black. Right above the grill lines to make it seem like there was no grill or something.

    Actually, You can see how well they cut it in. Look at the photos. The jams are still white, but I don't see any stank vinyl hanging off the side and it is laid into the sail lines with no air bubbles. Badass. Plus, ride around like that for a year and pull that Vinyl off and voilah....brand new paint. No fade, no chips, no nothing. I love it. Looks cool and actually helps the value of the car in the long run.

    I see nothing wrong with it. Now if he painted it......then i'd say dumbass.

    I dont think the pictures do the justice to the car. I bet it looks way nice in real life.

    I am used to it.. Everytime I call for any estimate and say Porsche, the price goes up about 100%..

    My firend called later that day and they quoted $1,500..

    Same with my tint, it was $110 dollars ANY CAR.. Well when those chinkies saw me pull up, they tried to say it cost $190 for my car..
