Default Custom 2005 Brabus Mercedes-Benz ML500 AMG Chop

Yeah I kind of took a break for a couple months. I did this one today in about 4 hours. I lowered it onto some painted Davin Speed 1's which I gave red lips; completely changed the grill, basing it on a grill Chip Foose did on a 2-door Tahoe on the show Overhaulin' Bling; put some Brembo's on it; shaved the doors; gave it red trim; tinted the windows; and darkened and turned on the lamps. Tell me what you think! Comments are appreciated.

The lense flare dosen't make sense because it appears that the headlamps aren't even on. Dodge tool the lamps themselves, then use flare sparingly-- or not at all -- especially in a bright daylight placement. It's much more realistic. The red on black is interesting.

I didn't make the reds myself so don't blame me for being too hot here's the original pic...

Hey, it's your final product that you put out there for everyone to see and comment on, without me even having to look at the original. So I do blame you!

yeah, plus yours is nothing like that example you've shown there, your red is much more saturated. especially your caliper in the front... it's blazing, way too hot (over-saturated) Otherwise, I like the black widow color scheme alot.

it looks good but there are some flaws visible... you went a little fast on selecting around the first wheel for lowering...
that vent in front of the mirror looks twisted and is not supposed to be there...
also loose the lens fare and stupid Mercedes badges...
