Hey all, 01 C240 here.
Hey guys, I'm new here, let me just start off by saying you all have extremly gorgeous cars, and all of you seem to know what you are doing. I recentley bought an '01 C240, which has EVERY single stock option possible, including COMMAND.
I've searched around the forums for about a week, so please dont flame me (however, I understand constructive criticism is part of acceptance on forums.) I am extremley motivated after viewing some of your cars (C240wner, for example) to begin modding my benz aswell.
What do you guys reccomend that I do? I DO NOT want to rice out my car (none of that need for speed ish) I want the luxury and honor of driving a Mercedes-Benz to be present forever. I know this is a stupid question and probably will **** a lot of you off, sorry in advance. What type of rims, xenons, and other stuff do you reccomend (price quotes would be awsome)
Also, what are bi-xenos? Can't seem to find a straight forward answer anywhere. Thanks alot guys, sorry for being a total newbie asking tedious questions. Thanks in advance, pictures are below. I look forawrd to becoming a contributor to this awsome forum.
EDIT: I love these black rims I am seeing, I would like to have those on my car. I also would love to have the mercedes emblem in the front grill. Thanks.

so u want the CL grill. that can be found at www.formymercedes.com
rims can vary depending on budget and style u want.
the headlights, if u dont want to spend too much, DEPOs are pretty decent IMO. that can be found at www.k1motorsport.com

How do you like it so far?
I'm looking to purchase a 2001 just like yours. It has 71,000 miles on it and don't know much about it. What should I look for in this C-Class and how do you like yours so far before any modifications.
Take care,
Bertrand

Welcome to the forums.
Because I'm feeling extra "nice", I'm gonna spoon feed you information, since I have to assume you are another lazy newbie.
If you REALLY searched the w203 forums, you would've come up with 500 threads discussing BI-XENONS. If you read through every single one of those posts, you would've figured out that bi-xenons were offered from 2003-Present and they replaced the FROSTED xenons offered on 2001-2002 models of the w203.
Oh, you would also know that there are OTHER OEM options that you most likely don't have, but can add on.
Take a look at this, to see lots of the many modifications that have been done:
AFTERMARKET/DIY STICKY THREADhttps://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w203/108681-aftermarket-oem-modifications-diy-faq-s.html
After you're done reading through every sticky available and every post, then come back on your thread and you'll realize there is SO much that can be done and SO much you probably didn't realize IS NOT on your car.
For OEM European add-ons, search for MBenzNL posts. He is a sponsor on this forum that offers all kinds of OEM add-ons and Star Diagnose add-ons. PS...Don't ask me what Star Diagnose is because if you searched the forums, you would've seen that mentioned all over the place regarding BI-XENONS.
Have fun. Hope you like reading. Maybe some other newbies will spoon feed you more, but I'm done with my good deed for the day.

Its all a matter of money and taste. With those two, your w203 can be beautiful, or you can Rah-style it and wish you never joined this site. Read, observe, and choose your mods wisely. READ,READ,READ before posting. It will save you in the long run.
