~ i like the car and the tinted windows... however i think the dark tinted tail lights look out of place on a mercedes (personal preference).

I like the window tinting too but the tail lights look better oem or I would light smoke only the turn signals on the tail lights. Or you can check some after market tail lights like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/08-11-Benz-W...-/131162156483

Why I say this... is because the tail lights continue the lines of the car and blacking them removes some design elements from the back of the car. Just my 2c

All great points. They look darker in the photos then they really are. I have always liked the smoked lights myself and I think with the black wheels on the car it will all come together nice but we will see.

I agree. Tinted tail lights doesn't fit our cars. The wheels your thinking about are good looking especially in black gloss finish. So goodluck with everything brother looking forward to seeing your car later.

Thanks. I think I am going head to the track tonight if the weather holds up and make some stock runs to see what kind of times I come up with so after mods I can get some new numbers.

I am not sure about the exhuast yet. I will figure that out as I go and see what looks better. The wheels are going to look awesome and I think I might change from black to bronze to do something different. Everyone is doing black wheels these days. My H&R springs just came in last night.

Nice one totally agree on the wheels IMHO silver/hyper silver, brushed or tinted brushed would look a lot better than black, with well designed rims if they're finished in black you loose all the fine visual detail and they end up looking just plain, also after some use blemishes in the black coating stand out like a sore thumb - same problem you get with a black car.

Really look forward to seeing that wheel design mounted up to a C Coupe

I agree on the black wheels, everybody is doing them and again I think they are covering design aspects when in black it's hard to see the wheel design. The bronze ones look interesting and a red brake caliper with mercedes-benz in white(to match the car color) written on them

We are excited to be helping with this C250 build. We do not have the final price on the piggy back yet. We are still finishing up some testing with it but we plan to release it soon. We are also looking at making some other products for the car like down pipe and exhuast. We will post some more updates soon. We are taking Mike's car to the track tonight to run some 1/4 miles passes with and without the piggy back.

Update: We made it to the track friday night and made 6 passes in the car in stock form before the rain came. We did not get to make any piggy back runs. We did drive the car all weekend and the mid range power is very noticable and the drivability is great. We will do some more tuning this week and hopefully get back to the track and play around some more.

No updates as of right now. I have been super busy with some other projects that came up and RENNtech is super busy as well. I am going to get back on it soon and get some up dates.

Thanks for the update, but I was wondering what the runs ended up being with the Renntech piggyback.

My C250 AMG

I recently updated my C250 for more of a AMG look, not complete satisfied with the exhaust, some folks like them allot others think I should shorten them. Thoughts ?

Pictures are on my other thread
