Ever See Hydraulics on a Mercedes Before?

[OCKlasse]

Yes, this is my car. I have a few more things to do before it gets another full detail again (A few magazine photoshoots coming up). As of right now it has about four coats of FK 1000p, and the flake pop in the sun light is just awesome.















An "in the sun" pic (see how great the 1000p looks?):







Oh yeah, here are the hydraulics (will have a little more work done in here as well):







Hope you guys like seeing something a little different!

ummmm... wow... This is pretty interesting. Its unique, ile say that.

That`s actually pretty nice. Still got some room in the trunk as well, even with the setup.

Looks good.



Slightly surprised you went with hydraulics instead of airbags.

[P1et]

You can go lower than that! Just mount the wheels ON TOP of the vehicle and bury the frame UNDER the ground!!!

Interesting you say that. It`s just so cliché for me to have air bags. Hydraulics are much more complex, but with its complexity comes a much greater reward. You get a better ride, higher lift, and more puzzled faces when people see the setup. It`s very simple to understand how air bags work; it is just the opposite with hydraulics.

I`ll take that as a compliment! :spot

Very nice... Is that a 355 I see in the garage?

[dave40co]

Looks GHETTO to me! I think you wasted a lot of money.

I`m diggin` it! Reminds me of the Japanese VIP car style.,...

[Civicman86]

I`m usually not a fan of hydraulics (more into race setupds) but you did it very well! IF it was raised up just to match the wheel well with the outside of the tire that would look really hot IMO. Car looks really really clean too! Great job.

[nmxdaven]

Don`t care for it. But it IS shiny! gj

[autobahnshine]

:think: I wonder what mag this is going into to... something VIP?

[djerickd]

yeah what mag?! VIP CAR?



Man you did so good on this ride, your setup is so clean... I want to build a sick JDM a s f*ck VIP car. WALD ftw! I love car stylin` trends..



shake off the haters, some of these guys just don`t understand.

YUP.

Also to me hydraulics have that "old skool" feel as well and when put together properly and securely in a clean VIP it`s just so much better..



let me know if you ever want to sell it.
