“Is that Rolls Royce Wheels on a Benz?: Man Upgrades His 1999 Mercedes Benz, Gives it a Brand New Look

• Nigerian man upgrades his 1999 Mercedes Benz W202, giving the vehicle a new look.
• He tints the glasses, redecorates the interiors and installs Rolls-Royce rims to the vehicle’s tyres.
• While most Nigerians have praised his creativity, others have noted their displeasure concerning buying a 25+ years old car.

A Nigerian man has recently upgraded his used 1999 Mercedes Benz W202 to look like a brand-new vehicle. He does this by redecorating the interior, tinting the glasses, and installing Rolls-Royce rims on the vehicle’s tyres.

The man @re-alibraheem6 who shared the video of his upgraded car on TikTok has drawn many reactions, complimenting his creativity, while others complain about buying a 25+ years old car to upgrade it. Whichever way, the decorating left the car looking appealing.

With many Nigerians weighing in, a car enthusiast noted that when buying a new car, he’d rather go for a recent model than a retro car because they do not hold a lot of resale value.
