W201 190D, also exists an exact same replica in Bluish-Green Color with same bodykit & grill but different wheels. Both came onto the road in the last few months.

PS: Thats an original Zender bodykit imported back in 1998.

That's a very well maintained 201 arush, but that bodykit, original or not is utter crap! It manages to completely ruin the beautiful muscular lines of the 201. It looks like a cartoon now!!


P.S: I love the number!

Cyrus she cant be a E230 as the pics indicate she is a W211 so E240 petrol or E220/E270/E280 CDI and those look more like 17 inch BBS's which came off a marron lowerd E270 CDi on Pali hill which now has 18 inch Brabus with lowering module.

autopsyche that is a great job integrating current C class sports grill into this car, So did you make a new hood out of fiberglass? Some pics of the other 190 would be great

It is a E230. It is a brand new car. The Wheels are BBS CO I believe. And yes, similar to the maroon lowered E whose pics i have posted a while ago.

Cyrus that bumper/mirrors/headlight/fogs/grill are prefacelift items, unless your friend likes to take brand new cars and change their looks to older specs!! The prefacelift only cam in the types I have mentioned above.

JayD no no the kit actually looks very nice, a stock car looks very boring in comparison. But i agree the hood and grill are out of place, it would look much better with stock grill.

cannonball, we have made a replica of the kit for the other cars total 3 were done with one original kit. The hood is the original one with a modified metal frame to accept the new grill. PS: the grill covers the high beam of the headlights lol.
