everyone has different taste in modding, most do not like your car and you know what so why ask? do what you like and what you enjoy.

whats the status on carbon hood, still going for it and whats the quotes your are getting?

[QUOTE=valexv;2769512][QUOTE=California;2768695]see if MB will sell us the extended tail light pieces near the license.

What piece are you talking about?
On the new CLC's, they have extended reflectors to match the tail lights fitted into hatch on either side of the license plate.

They have redone the tail lights, so that they have lost that top part of them altogether. On a black coupe, this can be "done" by blacking out the top of the tail. (Which with my tinted tails, it is almost already blacked out)

But on other color coupes, you'd have to white out, grey out or red or blue out the top of your tail light to get this more horizontal effect that the new CLC's are touting. I think it lifts up the look of the rear and makes it more "MB" like. I am also going to follow suit and push up my mb star on the back and c230 kompressor badging to the tinted window on the hatch. I'm aiming to get a bigger MB star for the back and replace the smallish star on currently on the hatch.

common vs unique

The W203 is dated and the mods limited, so in an effort to look unique most modded W203s end up looking the same.

Unlike the US, the market for the C-coupe is large in Canada, especially Toronto and Vancouver, so powa has go the extra mile to make his car stand out.

I say go for it! Personally I would do vents like the Brabus K8 or new AMGs rather than canards. I looked before for a Brabus K8-like vent that is the right size for the C-coupe and could not find one, if you find either canards or a vent that works, let me know.
