The start of my C250 respray job...

[jgs600]

well after owning the merc for a few months now my intent was to get all the arches re done, ive use of another car so decided its time to get her done.
will be getting both sides of the car re done and the tail gate too.
Managed to get hold of some sport side inserts so these plus the chrome ones on the bumpers will be replaced with colour coded ones and my lovely black AMG 18" wheels will go on last. ive also got some silver door handles that i will be getting colour coded white too...

Am very tempted to get the roof done black but cant decide..opinions guys.
will post some more pics as i go along.

Those wheel's should look great. IMHO I don't think there's much point in the roof being done, it'll barely be noticeable unless you're above average height...

A nice way to polish off the look would be to throw a C43 kit on there if you can find one and it's a decent price

do you mean a c43 off an estate or just use the front and rear bumpers off a saloon

 

[MercFanUk]

I'm not sure, but I don't think the saloon bumpers/skirts fit the estate - I'm sure someone here would be able to say for definite though

 

[jgs600]

think that will be something i might do next year maybe....

 

[MercFanUk]

Yeah kits can be hard to find, so I doubt it'd be a quick modification anyway

will post some more pics soon

Good luck with your c43 kit search, took me 5 years! Saloon and estates have same bumpers and skirts
