My New Ride!!! First Benz and in LOVE!

Just wanted to say hi and get to know everyone out here. I purchased my 2006 C350 SS 3 weeks ago and already going wild with mods...I need to win the lotto or something to keep up with this..

so far...

-Magnaflow Exhaust and took out the Resonator
-Threw on a Silver Line Dual Exhaust Tip (looks amazing compared to the oval)
-K&N Air Filters...just threw in yesterday
-Took off the bit hood "star" and put a black AMG flat emblem (today)
-Clear Corner lights on the bumpers (also installed today)

-My Euroteck CF front lip was purchase 2 days ago and on the way...cant wait!!!

Feel free to give me any adivce or knowledge on my new baby!

No, those rims came with it....it was a late 06' car and barely touched before I bought it! I'm stoked!!! I will be switching those rims out soon for some 18-19" Black with Polished lip suckers sooner than later....is 19 too big??? and thoguh I'm told I have the "amg sport package" with lower susp...should I still throw some lowering springs on there? Thanks for the compliments SHAKE!

Just wanted to say Thank YOU to everyone who had posted...I'm stoked on my new car and it makes it better to become part of such a rad forum. I'm always up for suggestion or answering any questions anyhone might have.

-C240wner: thanks for the re-post and did you buy a blacked-out grille or just DIY?

-Nibo- what kind of susp. do you have on your car? it sits great and i love the way it looks...also what size are those rims??

After that EuroTeck CF front lip gets here..hopefully this week...im looking into a CL style grille or possibly just black that out...any ideas on where to look?

Also i'd like to find some good lowering springs and maybe black-housing light set-up? any suggestions or tips in these areas?

I went from a Civic to this and I'm ready to put some serious time, love, and $$$ into my baby..

Thanks again guys...

-Chad

Welcome aboard! Nice touch on the exhaust.

Next mod: Debadge and get a rear spoiler

I have a Lorinser spoiler for sale if you're interested maybe we can work something out.

I've upgraded the my front lights and fogs to 6000k sylvania bulbs ....nothing too spectacular...and id like to do a full HID conversion when it comes down to it but there's a few more things i'd like to do first. I'm really into the C55 amg rear trunk spoilers....wheres a good place to find those...and any good pics of the w203's with the lorinser rear spoiler?

THERE IS SOOO MANY NEW THINGS I WANT!!! haha i cant help it...

I have Tein Basic Coilovers like most people here and 19s for the rims.

I've been wanting your style of rims, too bad you're not local. It's not that I don't want to pay the shipping, but the brokerage fee and the import tax are just killing me sometimes here in Canada
