Strut bar looks dope. Do you feel an improvement?

Car is looking sexy as hell. I don't know whose car to steal your or Phister's. You're close and if I steal your car you might catch me riding around town. Phister is all the way in Texas and I don't know if I'll be able to drive that far. Or I can just steal Phil's M5 or Eric's M3 but then again those are so fast I'll probably crash it. Ahh decisions decisions, I can steal Franks car but it's so unique and fast that I'll get busted soo quick or end up crashing it because it's soo fast.

What do you guys think? Can anyone help me out?

Phister and Rollnnn's car are top10 hottest 203s out there!!!

Once I tried breaking into Matt's car. I couldn't get the thing started so I started looking around at what I can steal. I opened his glove compartment and pow!!! some weird rubber microphone looking stuff popped out and hit me across the face. For some reason this rubber fist flew out and hit my eye. I had a black eye for 1 month. Who the hell carries a rubber fist in their car?? I guess it's a new kind of security system.

Its actually my friends company. My din was the test fit and it was perfect. fit and quality. He was going to be selling them here, but i think he is just sticking to ebay.

The plate was actually posted in this forum awhile ago, but of course it got bashed. It was posted in here and the w209 forum. Nobody had anything good to say about it. Then Dynomite in the w209 forum bought it and approved it and of course everyone jocked it. ....

Ill tell you what i tell everyone else. The pulley kit was probably the best performance mod i did to the m271, imo....

Hopefully youll be able to get one...

I found your previous thread about it this afternoon. The install was MUCH cleaner than the one they did in my C240. I've got some Scosche kits on the way, and I think I'm going to buy one of the CF ones. Not sure if it will look good with the Birdseye though.

Is there any noticable difference if you are not into track driving?

was wondering.. is that a Vorsteiner spoiler on James' CLK?

and i'm waiting to order the Rogue Engineering stud kit until my wheels get here around May and i size out the front clearance. i'm guessing its a pretty straight forward install right?

and wheel and tire size for the CLK on LM's please if possible? looks like my setup (kinda)
