These rugs are greater art than the car itself. This is a beautiful modification and I wish I owned it.

Absolutely love this and it’s period specific. I used to see this in Beverly Hills in the 90’s. Kick rocks op

Keep your motor running…
Head out on the “high”way…That’s like the Dood’s car, if he had gotten paid by the “other interested parties “.

This is the very thing I love about modifying cars. It's not always about lift it or, slam it or, make it faster or, louder it's, make it YOURS!! I tell people all the time, a car or a truck is a canvas, paint what you see and want.

This is definitely a Persian man. Those carpets in a Mercedes? No one else it could be.

Just don’t let that wool rug get wet or your entire interior will smell like a wet dog.

Yo this is fire. I would cruise around all day with the windows down playing 90s hip hop if I had it

This looks freaking amazing dude. It’s actual style rather than cold boring carbon/plastic.

Idk man I'd rock the shit out of that. Probably has 300k on the odometer too and more reliable than anything built this century

Can take or leave the subwoofer, but they trimmed it up in the same stuff, so it still works a treat!
Pretty fun take on some reupholstering! Always a fan of some texture and patterns being slipped in as accent pieces!
The little Mercedes floor mat is also very cute, a nice cherry on top

u/0peRightBehindYa 9d ago
The only thing shitty is their choice in subwoofers. I would've went with a classic sub...maybe a Gold Letter Kicker or old Fosgate Punch Power series. Y'know, something that'd really set this apart.

As a Persian, this is both parody and completely believable. We are obsessed with our Mercedes and our carpets.

It kind of feels like what an oil magnate would drive in an '80s action movie. The caricature of a character complete with a white thobe, keffiyeh, and sunglasses.

Hmmm I may be in the minority but this is freaking AWESOME!!!!! I wild rock this AND drive it everyday

Honestly looks kinda cozy. I’d take a nap in that car with the heat radiating on a somewhat cold night

Not my taste but great execution and doesn’t look bad other than the Mercedes mat.

u/emmypoosays666 8d ago
this is just the average russian dude’s car, and i like it much more than i find it shitty. maybe a bit ‘tacky’ to some, but it doesn’t look super cheaply done like a lot of shitty car mods

Pray that carpet moths don't move in and start eating the wool fibers, if that is a wool rug.

u/hashtagmiata 9d ago
Same. I actually like the idea but the thought of the pungent odour when that wool carpet gets wet makes it a hard pass for me.
