If it comes with those retarded burgerbumpers and burgerlights, switch them out for originals.

If I am not mistaken, this is how the original looks.

>>16799458
It isn't.

Is this not the same?

>>16799475
It's the same car as in the OP but it doesn't have original bumpers or lights.

>>16799477
I just saw a different picture with the other bumpers, they look better without them. Why is this style on so many of these 560sl's in America rn?

Because America is a terrible place and mandated foreign car rape in the 80s.

Picture related: Lamborghini raped by the Yankees.

Is there any practical reasoning for doing this? Why didn't they rape their own cars such as the mustangs etc..

Feels good to be socialist!

>>16799556
If only socialism wasn't so shitty on paper.

Apparently Americans hit things at 5 miles per hour all the time since the bumper regulations apparently wanted the cars not to be damaged if you hit something at 5 mph.

>>16799682
If you don't like it stay home asshole

>>16799450
Talk shit but those bumpers will wipe out the other car and leave you with almost no damage.

>>16800022
Yeah, no. You collide with the average American with their SUV and your Benz is toast.

>>16799507
They're designed so that safety equipment (lights turn signals etc will still work after a 5 mph impact.

Lol no.
Mate i can push down on the hood of my Mom's Envoy, 2008 even, and it'll bend.
My old Plymouth will take a beating to dent that fucking hood.

Malaise era-fugly bumpers were designed and achieved the ability to absorb a low speed hit without any damage, the problem is that they always look like shit.

Modern bumpers are designed to crumble up and shit and then cost $2-3k to replace.
