I had a friend who had a high-end shop roll his fenders on his C350- needless to say both rear fenders and quarter panels needed to be replaced. They said the metal Mercedes used was extremely difficult to work with. Why not consider the rear panels from the Black Series conversions?

Then I would have get the whole Black series kit to make it look good , I'll just sell the wheels even tho I just bought the H&R super sports spring I guess there no point of me lowering the car when it's already rubbing over bumps

I used to rub but i cut the inner lining of the rear fender and shaved where the bumber and fender meet a bit and had pulled them a little, also im running -1.9 camber which helped stop the rubbing
Im running 19x10 et 42 with a 255/30. Im lowered on h&r super sports with 5mm pads in the read.
Check out the w204 & offset thread for pics,
Hope this helped

In that case they dont know much about lowering cars haha
I didnt use a camber kit since i didnt put a lot of camber, when i took my car in i just told the tech to put much as possible on the car. -1.9 was all i could get .
If you want a higher offset you could always just take the wheels to get shaved to a higher offset

You dont need a camber kit to get negative camber, its only needed when you want to get more than -2, which in your case you wont need
