Australian W203 Owner Saying Hi
Hi everyone. (G'day mate as you percieve us lol)

I've got a 2005 Model C200 Kompressor and there aren't really any forums like this for us so I'm gonna have to tag along with you guys.

So far I've got 18" Brabus Rims on it. Got on order
- Bilstein B12 Coil Overs
- Remus / Sebring Muffler
- Reiger Front Bar

Hope to get some good information and ideas from here.

Yeah I wanted to get the windows tinted, however I've read somewhere that since the tolerances on Mercedes Windows / Sills are so close you scratch the tint over time.

Can someone enlighten me?

Yeah it does scratch and if you are looking fo rit you see it. Mine is scratched, but it doesnt bother me anymore. Ill probably replace it at the end of summer because im sure itll get messed up going to the beach and stuff. I love the look though. For example:

Welcome aboard! Car looks sweet. Wheels are too nice, period.

You might consider a K&N air filter element. Allows more air to flow, and keeps out kangaroo dander.
