    w202 with E-class front conversion ( new member)

    Whats up guys?
    Iam a new member here, living in Barbados.
    Iam planning on buying a 1996 c220...

    It comes lowered 1.5" on 17" wheels and best of all.. it has an AMG front conversion sold in Germany .. The conversion is made of kevlar and the front of the car carries the round headlights..I'll try and post some pics to show you all..


    Has anyone ever seen this conversion any where else?

    I agree. I would like to see a full body shot to get a better idea. As you can see, the W210 front end is too round for the boxiness of the W202. It doesnt look that bad, but definitely a change in styling concept.

    edit: maybe some bling bling mirrors and a rounded spoiler would help.

    I have seen that in real life UPCLOSE several times...wanna waste a perfect good car - go that route...It really does not look good upclose at all!

    If you haven't bought that car yet, wetdragon, you might want to/ought to/should consider buying a different car instead...

    i've seen one of these conversions at the LA auto show years ago if i remember correctly. doesn't look bad but it doesnt look all that great either. looks kinda cheesy imo. reminds me of those civics who put IS300 headlights and W203 rear lights. the last thing you want your car to be is a poser :silly:

    EDIT: did you guys check out the W203 conversions for the W202 on that site? haha it looks so weird.

    I really don't know about that. I think its looks kinda lame, I love how the 202s look in the front, and 210s look good, but on that body only... I wouldnt get it =T

    after looking at it again, i dont like it. 202 front ends look better because it is more boxy than 210.

    Needs a W210 rear conversion + blinker lights. Would be kinda nice to have a smaller-scale e-class

    I have seen many of these done, old style SL into current model etc aswell.

    These look awful, and you would never be able to re-sell the car
