2005 Granite Gray C55
What size are your wheels and tires?? I love your set up and I'd like to get a set up like yours, of course is give you credit.
Did you need spacers? And what is the air Gide system called under your rear bumper?
Anyone can reply to my post on these questions. 👍👍👍👍

The rear bumper component is a diffuser.

2005 C230 Sport
Here's my 2005 C230 sport. Just got done doing a major overhaul to the motor. Found the small oil leak located in the front of the engine; changed out the camshaft magnetic solenoids, all seals, wire harness, and plugs. Also changed out all filter elements, fuel filter, 13 pin connector linked to the tranny which was leaking, gaskets on the tranny pan, tranny filter, tranny fluid, spark plugs, 2 bypass hoses ( liquid ), drained and refilled coolent system, and oil / filter change. Went with Mobil 1 synthetic 5w/40w for high mileage ( this car has 140K miles ). Car runs smooth and brand new. Now, it's time for some aesthetics and performance. Next project is to bring her lower to the ground; followed by rims / tires.

Newbie
sold my W202
and picked up a W203
Put some amber led city lights and halogen amber(yellow) fogs
Put on the spoiler I ordered and the license plate leds.
I have a roof spoiler and black vinyl for the roof ready to go on. Just waiting for it to not be frigid.
Oh yeah, its a 2002 C240 6MT! Happy about that last part
Pretty good condition for 112k mi.

I haven't had the opportunity to put my spacers and summer rims on but I did want to show off how the amg lip looks on a stock bumper.
Took about an hour, i could have used bolts, zip ties w/e but i used galv baling wire to tension it to the right spot. Much easier than expected. The bumper had three prefabed holes on each side, on the lip i made a few and pulled her up. Gratefully I went with this than the ez lip.

So when I bought it from carking they kept warning me it was meant for amg. I couldn't find another option with my budget that looks better. This car gets heavy driving and no complaints, looks sweet

Very much appreciated, I have ordered a new trunk star and hood ornament. The grill was scratched from breaking off the star.
So I was playing with the idea of a sunken back grill and thought about how nobody gets to see such a nicely placed horn.
I've never seen a w203 with a benly look cross thatch grill.
I really love 203's and wanted to emphasize on the grill intake. So the grill is a yay or nay, I could easily do one solid piece.?

I took it off road, snow is starting to stick here. I'll brush it off and show some close ups of what I did. Here is one I didn't post.
I've rims waiting for new tires I'd rather show off than these. Please brace yourself.

Thanks man. I think if you trimmed the back more so it wasn't as wide, depth wise, and brought the edge closer to the bumper, would look great. Maybe I will got that route w/ mine...

Here's my 05 C240 4matic just picked up, new daily/commuter/train station car...
Perlite Grey Metallic. 98k miles.
Not sure what packages but it doesn't have command and doesn't have full-power memory seats, also doesn't have the bi-xenon lights. However, it's in pretty nice shape just needed some TLC. I didn't even want to take pics before I cleaned it up - it was gross. Sent it through the auto wash twice, had them clean interior, then I brought it home and did a quick interior detail. When It's warmer out she'll get a full ~3hr detail treatments. I like my cars clean.
needs some TLC and maintenance items done - already ordered a bunch of parts....
Here's my thread for the car, to feature pics, maintenance items, updates, etc. I'll also post up DIYs for fixing things to add to resources available...

It would be awesome if you made a thread about how to do the led instrument lighting if you do it!
