I'm all for modification but this doesn't work for me.  Makes the grille look lonely.

Anyone seen more tasteful body mods?

wtf, what a p.o.s.

this is an embarrassment to everything the w116 stands for 

Even more embarrassing, its in Australia!

$2,500 - I think they are dreaming

hehe, saw this one the other night and had a good laugh, how to totally eff up a perfectly decent looking motor vehicle, and yeah I think $2,500 - 'tell him he's dreaming' comes to mind...

They must have thought it would look "cool". I think they ruined it, and I don't think I have seen any worse.

The concept sketch?

I can't imagine why there were stuff up the front end with fiberglass (surely it's not real metal).


"Murdered out" can look good, but you don't need to screw up the front end. Maybe satin black the whole car and black chrome / anodize the chrome / aluminum trim. Still not my style, but would look loads better than this POS.

The jury has come in: guilty on all counts.

P.S. This "car" looks like something out of one of those futuristic movies where the world has been blown up and people are running around in junk vehicles cobbled together from numerous piles of wreckage.

it reminds me of another 116 that had its bumpers removed and interesting paint scheme...  but this one had bumpers removed for a few extra 10ths per lap.

and yes the black one is a POS.
