Did it come with other wheels? Because you said it came with AMG wheels, and those wheels in the pictures are just base wheels off a W140 S class (non AMG). Either way nice pickup, the paint on it looks actually glossy, it's been really taken care of if it's the factory color

stop looking at it as a civic when its more his personality than it is a honda. & nothing has been destroyed. instead, he's experimented with all of his ideas at different times on that hatchy, instead of looking to see what everyone else was doing before he took chances on his own chassis. something we should all respect.
I say the chrome fender flares fit that car rather well & are totally period correct for an 80's pimp. I'm shocked it's retained the hood ornament & would love to see it dropped on it's nuts after winter.
Leave those fender bits on there man! This is going to be good!

The condition of the paint is amazing. I was actually looking at 300SDs before I picked up my 300SE, and I'm amazed that you found one of these in such good condition.
You probably should consider checking out what's underneath those chrome fender trims though. If it's not rusted away yet, then you should take off the trim before the fender does rust. If it's rusted already, by all means leave the trim on!Last edited by CJay; 11-17-2011, 12:28 AM.

and daily a civic that drags on flat ground, with negative 10 degrees of camber, no interior, no heat, blower motor or defrost, no carpet or interior and a year out of inspection
OR....
daily a mercedes benz with power everything, heat, defrost, heated brown leather, a back seat, a huge trunk, not to mention more the 1 speaker and actually has suspension travel....
dont get me wrong i love my civic like any guy loves his pride and joy between his legs but if you pick the civic to dailey over a benz..... you might want to go get checked for some kind of serious mental retardation.....HoodRatStatusInstagram @looneylow
