That is one of the nicest aftermarket body kits I have ever seen. The £10K to £11K is money well spent, especially when compared to £150K from Mercedes.
Do you know that the rear wing produces so much downforce that extra reinforced supports were installed in the trunk where the wing is supported? otherwise it will either break or bend the body.
And the extra front splitter is probably required to balance the down force or it may lift the front at speed assuming if it is actually adjusted correctly to make downforce rather than a be a air brake😊.
This is dam true with most manufacturers that create higher spec models that create more downforce. normally prefer to mount to rear quarter/ basically making it part of the chassis for strength.
@nickbs2286 there is an extra splitter on the black that can be pulled out from.under the other one. So this kit looks like a fixed replica of that. Imo. Carwow had a video on it
@@ayanpahloan1418 he is doing an Aston Martin yes... But in all honesty, it is not like someone invented rebuilding crashed cars... The Temu part is the same that is true, but it is probably good for the algorithm
Just found your channel today and I can't stop watching. Watched the first part of this build today and im glad to see the algorithm brought me back to see the new one!
I mean look how the wing is mounted. Very huge forces will pull the blades up. The mount in the original black series was a difficult task for the engineers…
bro this is one of the few creators that doesn't over-dramatize even the slightest problems, these guys just fix it and keep moving like nothing happened. Love the content my guy, keep it up
I'm surprised it fitted that well, i bought an office chair, i had to take out the hank bushes had to glue screw wood blocks pu in some new ones that were in the correct spot so the bolts went through an actual hole. Boy you have guts to take this on! Loving the videos, the factory has called in the day shift and they are ramping up production, they will have so many made by morning that next month they will be on Escort Mrk 2.
Probably for 5k more the Chinese can make a 100% fitment kit for this AMG. This is the proof that you only pay for the brand, and not for the real price of those Mercedes parts. It is well known that China can make quality parts or less quality parts depending on the price. You pay less, you get less quality, you ask for quality you pay more, but a motherload less than stealerships
That, it looked just like cheap plastic with a carbon fiber print. Also did you ever consider the cost of engineering, making molds, ... for the limited number mercedes sold? Lastly, rich people get a kick out of expensive parts....
Ema say thanks for making these long videos where you do a lot of work on the car at once instead of just small little pieces of time I appreciate this form of entertainment and I will continue to watch forever
Mate that is Gangster!! The kit looks mean and aggressive, suits the car brilliantly, it makes it look like a very expensive drift car!! Cant wait for paint!!👍👍👍
The AMG is looking really good and surprisingly the body kit is fitting up quite well considering that every kit no matter how good the quality is will always need a certain amount of fettling to get the gaps spot on!!
The car had lots of front end damage, perhaps that's why the body kit didn't quite fit. Obviously it's a knock off body kit and they usually come with issues but you didn't seem to look for any minor frame damage. 1 mounting point pushed half inch out of place can cause lots of lines to be off.
@@damvoo1still makes no sense lol why would temu sponsor him? I’m assuming it’s because temu brings in more clicks than Ali express would.. algorithm shit 🤷♂️
Absolutely killed it on this one. Car looks amazing. On the introduction of this idea I knew it would be at least 150 grand for that kit from Mercedes I legit called it. And the subsequent decision to go the China route at first left me feeling a little icky but that finished product speaks volumes for the savings are insane you could buy another couple of cool cars for that money. Hats off man, I would whip it!
Chris you done amaziing bro. To get that kit to fit. It looks great and I cannot wait to see it finished from the body shop. Get the next PRoject in :D :D :D
Just found your channel during the first video of this project. I gotta say. Mate as a car lover of 40 years. Which I say that cause I've seen a lot. But honestly you've completely blown me away! New subscriber here!
Might be good to put a bead of tiger seal between the body and rear spoiler bud, will really help seal it up and stop wind and rain getting in. Also stops any rattle. Definitely it’s a must to have in the shop, side skirts almost always need tiger seal just to help you get them on and not have them rattle.
I didn’t know if you know the heat gun trick. Sometimes when you heat up the parts before attaching the area it helps return it to its original form after shipping and gravity and make alignment a bit easier. They definitely still need trimming at times.
Playing I’m going to pop some tags while showing the temu kit on the car at the end had me rolling. Keep up the good work, I’m a subscriber for life now.
Saw first video the other night. Subscribed straight away. Not everyone will own a car like that but the methods you’re using are achievable by many. Like it 😎
Chris, maybe making the body kits mounting holes ovals instead of leaving them circles will give you the adjustability that you need. I enjoy these cars so your video is fun for me. I can’t afford a car like this so the videos keep me smiling.
Kit looks banging that spoiler daymmm Shame about the bumper my dc5 bumper was fibreglass and it lasted 1 mile out the body shop cracked over the first speed bump 🎉
@Chris Slix Try adjusting the bonnet latches. That might align the corners of the hood and the bumper better. Also the right front wing looked like it could come slightly out at at the back beside the door which would in turn take the very front edge in toward the hood more, closing that gap even more. That would also close the gap at the top of the wing and the door where it was wider and also bring it away from the bottom at the door, where it was too tight, making it a consistent gap all the way up and down between the wing and the door??? I would try all that stuff before any body work like sanding or filling, cos once u start doing that there’s no going back. Also if u need to take anything off for any reason, it will need to go back exactly as u did it first time die to it being sanded and filled… 😉
You should make your own strut stabilizer supports for the larger front diffuser. It would look really cool to ride around with it all the time and if you give it some really good support it won’t flex and get caught that easily and just pay attention to where you’re going and don’t hit any potholes and Bob Uncle you got a nice front. Splitter
Can not tell you how much I was lookong forward to this follow up after the last vid! It did not disapoint 🙌 Can't wait to see what colour and wheels you go with... at LEAST a new full exhaust too, right? 🤞😁
Pls get the facelift headlights, You would be the first to do that. It needs to have the newer lights like the actual black series. Pls Chris. Without the lights it’s not a full conversion. Plus it make the car look so much better.

Lol i basically did the same
It’s will look awsome when all painted Chris 🏎️🏎️
Watched the last episode yesterday, woke up to this being uploaded :D
I watched part 1 just 10 hours before and when i woke up it dropped
Fr part. 1. I watched yesterday AND PART 2 todayy😂
finally someone who’s doing actual work and not spreading it over 50 episodes :-) well done for the sick build man looking forward to part 3.
Great video, except the lying in the title. Nothing is from Temu, it's all from Aliexpress!!

This comment is very true! I’ve read this about the black series GT. Up with this comment! Let’s gooo

Please don’t go over 100 mph with this car
?
The kit will fall apart
I mean look how the wing is mounted. Very huge forces will pull the blades up. The mount in the original black series was a difficult task for the engineers…
Would be a nice find tho..picking the body kit up for free off the motorway?I'd be stalking him..
Its not probably even able to go over 100 😂😂
One of the best builds I have seen anywhere

the real parts arent made of cheap fiberglass tho
and look at the quality of the kit and panel gaps😮 just like Armstrongs amg

It's all for TH-cam who give a ****😂
@@Kcii-99 fiberglass is not cheap tho
I absolutely love that kit , aslong as the body shop get the gaps 100% it will look mega !!!!!
Great work Chris !
Who's gonna tell him that the black series is significantly wider than that?
I BUILT A £500,000 AMG GT FROM Aliexpress
Temu is better for algorithm

Outstanding job Chris! I like your builds and especially your perseverance, it’s the red line through your whole channel. Keep it going!👌💪
You've come on a long way, hard work, nice videos not boring!!
I can’t wait to see this after the body shop & paint job
i know nothing about cars, but this series has me captivated, keep at it bigman
Chris hitting the algorithm 👌🏻👌🏻 nearly 10k subscribers since the last vid! Well deserved! 👊👊🙌🙌
One of my favourite builds on TH-cam at the moment
To be fair the kit is turning out really good 🤩🤌🏼

Yeah but would you trust those panels to withstand the performance ?
Is the wing going to fly off
Who here subbed just not to miss this?
Me!
Me too

Also me 😂
Also also me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅
You have absolutely smashed that kit mate for the price ! Car looks amazing already
Seller: How big do you want your spoiler to be?

Outstanding content Chris been waiting for part 2.
Ima gonna need to see if they make a raptor body kit for the F-150 , add a quick 3 inch lift, wider wheels and boom, mine should look like a raptor
Enjoyed the videos but again why does the title say Temu when you bought it on Ali Express ?
Either sponsored in some way or because temu is known for shite quality
@@damvoo1still makes no sense lol why would temu sponsor him? I’m assuming it’s because temu brings in more clicks than Ali express would.. algorithm shit 🤷♂️
Cos it’s “trendy” probably 😅 click bait
For the algos my dude 😂
its literally the same shit. temu, wish, aliexpress, dhgate all the same shit. its just chinese suppliers selling items worldwide
Awesome vid once again Chris, it’s looking awesome and great to have a different TH-cam build rather than Italian super cars
Its looking smart there Chris, leave that lower front splitter off though. It'll look even better with the paint completed. Keep up the good content.
TEMU rubbing their hands right now 😂
perfect song choice for the reveal of the fitted kit at the end XD love it
Cant wait for part 3 !🎉
10k kit and some sweaty work vs 150K, and it looks amazing!! Nice job!

For the back spoiler would rubber washers be better? Or both metal and rubber would make it more water tight right?
