I've gotta say, I love how you show all the ups and downs.. I know how depressing and demotivating a non starter can be.. beautiful work anyway guys! Keep it up
Their is something about a small and square 2 or 4 door that looks beautiful once you give it race car style appearance mods. When these 190s and M3's get lowered with a front splitter, side skirts, and a wing they transform so much. This video called it the DTM look and I'm cool with that name. Even just a lowering kit is fine wine on 90' to early 00's boxy sedans. I am so happy than the square boxy style is starting to come back today. The new Lexus GX went box on the new model and it looks like the beauty from early 2000's.
The silver 190 dtm cars bodykit was so sick. The way the front widebody fenders flow together with the front splitter is amazing. Its similar to how the widebody hellcat and demons look and flow with there front. Of course the dtm is way better though lol
I daily a CLA45 with that engine. Major compromise is the thing doesn’t rev, which for me is the opposite of what you want in a race car. If you find a way to spin it to 8k I’m interested,
Is this the Polish body kit? the rotiforms look nice, but the OZ's are the shiznitz, so fire. Congrats on the result, the interior looks racecar but really tasteful and that engine looks right at home, you guys killed it.
You don't realize how small that car actually is until you see a dude pushing it around like that. I mean, it doesn't have an engine in it, so it's quite light, but just the size comparison between the paint and body shop dude and the car itself really demonstrates how teeny the car actually is. I've driven one of the C-series cars that came right after this generation and it was also much smaller than you'd expect. Mercedes really did an impeccable job of making such a small car give off big car energy.
Thats theee most fire Maaco paint job in the history of that company, glad they the stigma wasnt true, they did a fantastic job!
Sometimes you just have to find out for yourself! They crushed it and on a wild timeline
Okay that DIY baffle-plate blew my mind !!!🎉 pure skill and talent

Here to show the reality of any real project car! Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed
Its crazy to see how quick people who know what they’re doing work

That Essa F80 looks stunning in the background and on track.
We miss having that car around the shop!
I can believe so
So much love for this car. I was (still am) a huge Touring Car fan, be it BTCC, DTM or anything ‘80s/‘90’s.

even the w202 c230 komp is TINY yes they are tiny love em
Months waiting on a custom wiring harness for the pinout to be incorrect, ouch. I know there were plenty of choice words said off camera.
Just finished part one yesterday, so this is excellent timing!
Part 3 This Sunday!
@@fcpeuro-mediaLooking forward to it!
The body shop did their thing ✌️
They certainly did!
Was this a reupload? Wasn't these already uploaded?
Amazing Iconic building! Good luck on the project.

With all these new parts & fab, you didn't bother building custom headers for the exhaust?
I love it guys very professional and the car is 🔥🔥
Glad you like it 😊
i am a Mercedes mecanic with 40 years in the field and i must admitt it looks great guys !!!!! from who is the song at 12 min ?
That MINI in the background 😮😊
I agree. What front bumper is that on the mini?
For sale!
good job man 👍💪
Maybe a dumb question, but did you find a perfect fitting ball joint? If so, which ball joint fitted? 😅
Interesting and well produced,,,thanks
Can you comment on the fit and finish of the body kit? Would you recommend it?
And you changed out the gorgeous OZ wheels for those hideous things...?!
These Rotiforms 🤤
Fantastic work and great filming. I just wish they'd use less filler words like 'basically' and 'you can see'.
Is this the Polish body kit? the rotiforms look nice, but the OZ's are the shiznitz, so fire. Congrats on the result, the interior looks racecar but really tasteful and that engine looks right at home, you guys killed it.
This kit is from Vuik! We loved the look of the OZs off of our W204 too, but we think the final result is even a bit more eye-catching. Stay tuned!
Next project should be VW POLO PROTO, the only Polo rally car in the states👍
You got Lou Ferrigno working on the wires??? You must have a lot of money. I also see an electric AC in that car's future, and I will be remembered.
USA amateur hour, I love it.
They've actually done a pretty damn good job so I don't see why the hate.
What front bumper is that on the mini in the background?
Looked like Thailand made Hedgehog Motorsport EVO DTM replica kit ?
This kit is a Vuik kit, but we've heard Ake's is also a fantastic choice!
@@fcpeuro-media What was the quality of the kit like? Did it need much bodywork to fit?
@@khabel21did you watch the video?
I would like one of those engines on my 560SL , stock engine is heavy and slow
Its such a good platform!

터보 첨가제??
Andy Samberg is a mechanic too?
where did u bought body kit ?
Vuik kit
Where is the exhaust going while everyone works at their desk… hopefully you have exterior hose
Nah, there’s no fun in that.
There's a, "Steady Breeze", of Karen's, complaining..... All that hot air blows through TH-cam and pushes the exhaust right outside.. 👌
Who the heck made this harness 🤦♂
C est pas un fenchy Karim?
Le seul et unique!
overnight parts from Germany lol
man the welding it s so so bad
stop using motec, start using fueltech
expensive project
Im first 😊😊😊
Great content. But could you skip this unnecessary kindergarden like narrator? Explaining things that are most obvious ...
