whats up forum, been awhile. just a quick update. I put a set of C32 wheels on my ride. And I have a set of 2007 C230 rotors and calipers laying around wondering if they will fit and when I'll get the time to try and get them on. I know they are not C32 rotors and brakes, but it's all for aesthetics.

Never mind the front passenger seat back portion. That seat had a broken cover so i put the tan one on until I get the new black one. Oh yea, the ostrich feather duster works like a gem getting all the interior surfaces clean. Next project is the front brake swap. I just haven't decided which rotor to go with, the Zimmerman or Balo.

It's been awhile, but all for good. I'm including some pictures of what I am currently doing to my grill. I hacked the center vertical slat out and filled it in with a two part filling epoxy and cut out a couple of other vertical slats. Let me know what you think so far.

just a suggestion... you should have these guys fill out the middle of the seats to match the rest of the tan surroundings and make it two-tone. http://www.classicsofttrim.com/
that would look sick

midnight kompre - I was thinking about doing the inserts but actually decided against it. I was actually thinking of replacing the dash, center console, door panels and carpet with the black parts and leaving the top portion tan. I still dont know yet. I actually have access to a full interior for very little money at my work. Anybody need parts? BTW I'm the buyer for LKQ(used parts guys).
I also included a pic of the grille primed in black primer. It is not done yet, I still have some shaping and cutting but didn't like the look of the multi color grille.
And I need to get a new front bumper bad!!! The c240 bumper is ugly

I was thinking about painting the grille white but love the look of black, what do ya think? And I don't think I'm going with the cl grille. What ever I decide to do, first thing I need to do is sand the grind marks out and then paint it.
