Chris_tA_4 intro thread

I'm relatively new to the Mercedes scene, but not to the Euro scene. Here's my previous car I created:

As you can tell I enjoy the low and wide wheel scene when it comes to modding cars which I don't think is quite popular on the w212 chassis yet. Anyway, I figure I'd introduce myself and show everyone my current vehicle and update this thread periodically...this me now w212 e550

Nice car. What color is it, and what body parts have you added?

Interesting collection.
I was imagining someone trying to drive one of those in a typical New England Winter, and after with the pot holes.

I generally dislike murdered out cars but yours is so sharp and eye catching

I think it's got Carlsson body kit as well

How much did you get these for? Time to dial in negative camber.

Haha you already know! Unfortunately I can't quite disclose the price on them yet. I will be writing a review on them once I put them on; then I'll divulge all information about them in the thread. I will say that these offer an additional -3 degrees to existing settings, but I will tweak them to try and obtain more.

Ed, I got the rear camber arms for $276. They bolted up and went in easily and even have holes in the arms to accommodate for the airmatic links.

On another note I installed front camber screws but got minimal results with that.

I'm also having my LM's converted to 3 piece and they should be finished really soon
