Black car with black rims is always mean
A little window tint would make the car more PIMPED (just my 0.02) ..

notice in the first pic the caliper has a little curve showing between the spokes and in the second pic the top of the caliper doesn't have that big silver looking bolt.

I have the same car, 2005 C230K SS, BLK BLK.

Regarding the brakes, according to the brochure, the 2004.5 brakes are 4 piston brakes.

Yet, according to the brochure again, the 2005 brakes are 2 piston brakes...

I know for a fact that both are supplied from Brembo. However, Brembo hardly makes 2 piston front brakes...

I think it's weird that they would change the brakes from 4 piston to 2. Still, can't complain about the brake performance.
