thanks guys, yep big upgrade. one of the reasons i upgraded was because i wanted to get out of the import scene (too many conflicts and such). i also have an integra that i may be considering selling for mods for the benzito =). first mod i'm gonna do it get a set of black rims with a polished lip. any suggestions? i saw the aftermarket wheel section but none of them really appeal to me.

Good luck on the mods. Modding a MB costs a amount of money if you want to do it right.

thanks a lot guys. i know it is a crappy picture (taken from a phone) and i will take better picture when i get my hands on a camera. i plan to keep the car nice and clean. i have already learned that modding a benz costs way more then what my corolla and integra costs combined (ie lip kits). any advice to make it look nicer? everything is stock right now

Search the Forum and you'll find tons of little mods. First things I can think off is a flat hood badge and clear side markers.

r3v1ls - yep i've searched the forums and was thinking abuot doing the flat hood badge but still deciding if i should also change the grille or get a blacked out one. i ordered clear sides and also ordered bulbs to change from the yellow to white (interior as well)

rlee02135 - i am thinking abuot those right now and just getting a plug and play kit for them and saving some money. i'll let you know when i get more info abuot having the mb guys set the xenons to present

FrankW - is there a link that can bring me to the pics? i've searched the forum adn the member list but have no luck

JDM - yep, i had to wait for a while before the right combination came along. everytime there would be a black on black c it would be sold right away. i guess this car was meant for me.
