some slow@$$diesels
people tend to install the lights TOO LOW so that they have to adjust the lightbeams TOO HIGH which causes the adjustment rod that is attached to the adjustment motor inside the headlight TO POP OUT (as can be seen on the pictures above)...
make sure that that rod sits properly inside the motor - pull the reflector gently to the rear while adjusting the light LOWER again so that that rod will go back into the levelling motor (as I mailed you before Mike)
When installing the lights one has to make sure that the bottom outside of the headlight is NOT pushed in all the way BACK before TIGHTENING it because that will make the lightpattern POINT DOWN and that will result in having to adjust the lightpatter TOO HIGH and thus the adjustment rod to pop out of th elevelling motor.
greetingz,

Here's the deal, guys. I just spoke with TEIN. The reason they are doing the 320 over is because they want to establish weight/ratio on the 320. Really, it's to take measurements and what not just to be positive that they have them all correct.
Somebody with a 320 should step up to the plate (especially those that have been looking for a suspension - even though it's not guaranteed you'll receive a prototype set).

Bump
Nobody wants to do R&D?
Sheesh, I wonder how long it would've taken if I hadn't done R&D for the 230?

He put on the bumper after buying the car so he likely got one with the washer caps and no washers.

looks mint 
not a fan of chrome but your car does pull it off
those are nice upgrades! it doesnt even look remotely the same as it did before. Hot stuff.
how much did you pay for your AMg brakes? i'm looking to do that next.
