nice work but a black series w/o a real hardtop...?
wide body without suspension geometry change never made sense to me.

Looks like a lot of work and the results are great but not a fan of turning a car into something it isn't. do they have the black series badging on the fender, I can't tell.

Impressive work...but still a poser.

As long as he doesn't tell people it's a black series and there are no fake emblems, I don't consider it a poser. Mercedes will add AMG parts to any of their cars. I had AMG wheels on my non-AMG Benz and I didn't feel like a poser. I got lot's of props from all those who knew what AMG was.

Looks nice but they shouldn't call it a Black Series which is more than just cosmetic changes on top of the usual AMG mods.

You are correct, MB will sell various AMG aftermarket parts to non AMG owners. Glad you enjoyed you AMG wheels, no issues with that. But I assume you didn't thrown on AMG emblems as well? There are tons of examples of non AMG owners adding AMG badging...that's just tacky.

Looks awesome, but I'm sure that the few key ingredients that make a Black Series a Black Series are missing...
