W203 going for a more elegant classic look

Here are the pics of my mod so far. Constructive criticism is welcome.
1. Authentic lorinser LM5 18 inch wheels staggered on Continental Sportcontact2 225-40 fronts, 255 35 rears (from Lorinserc36)
2. Bilstein pss9s no. 4 setting (no rubbing with 3 medium size adults in the back seat)
3. C32 brake kit front and rear with Brembo crossdrilled rotors (from rlee)
4. 2005 side mirror turn signals
5. 2005 sport grille
6. Body color painted side markers and bumper grille
7. JVC EXAD HU with 3.5 inch dvd screen, no navi (car is driven locally most of the time), but has bluetooth, usb, a/v in and out). Speakers remain stock for now, but the sound is way better than the stock hu.

Future mods:

Kleemann muffler (I have it, not installed yet)
AMG sideskirts (still looking)

Looks nice... but not a big fan of the dangling USB extender.

I know, but this is the best way to watch **** in your car in 5.1 surround without having to worry too much about kids in minivans seeing the show.

Will do. Still getting used to the forum.

Looks nice... but not a big fan of the dangling USB extender.
Maybe I can figure out a way to divert the extender into the glove box.

sorry, I meant Kleemann s/c.

Nice start! As others have said, the h/u is not the cleanest look.
