if it was a smooth body like a golf then it really works but not on the merc :no:

saying that though i smoothed off my mk2 granada and that looked ok so maybe its the colour that makes it look wrong.

mine was white.

I'm only really here for the Kitchens

just the rear doors and boot IMO.
Makes it look like a coupe.

Someone had a lovely pic up a while back, just the rears had been done I think the pics were in a quarry or something, piles of stones around. I will see if I can dig it out.

Gets a big yes from me, but with that particular car, I dont think it works... Euro smoothery + USandA blingo wheels + a spoiler... too many things at one!

As Kenny says, rear doors and boot for sure, if your car is in the low euro style then go all 4 doors.. But it has to be the right car!

Im planning on rear doors shaved, (and boot of course) just open them manually from inside.. Not like the back seats will always be in anyway lol..

I was waiting for that pic to surface! :P

It looks great but the C-pillar vents are such a distinct design point of a W201, not to mention that the are quite functional, I think they should stay.

Neil that pic still looks sweet though, ever tempted to go modding?

Not me !! This car (pic) is SO gorgeous.
Colours, rims, smoothing, roof-that-looks-like-a-hardtop,... I would lose the badge and star on the bootlid too.

Black car doesn't do it for me. Those rims are gross.gif .
