Your car is so sick! I wish I had a white w203, yours is so nice. What size tires are you running? I am coming down to Orange county to pick up my new wheels in a couple weeks and need to get some tires too, do you know of any good tire stores?
Thanks

nice, those will look good. im not sure about tire sizing for 18's, but im sure someone here can help.

mine aren't really that stretched. Im not really into stretching tires, but these are the only sizes i can fit. If it was up to me i would get the widest tires possible. I used to run a 275 wide tire when i didnt run spacers, i wish i could run those again.

thanks fellas!

these are Muteki sr48. I got these since they are made out of steel as opposed to most other tuner lug nuts which are made out of aluminum. When i was looking for these im pretty sure i saw teal lug nuts, i just don't remember where..

lowered my coils all the way down, i like the way the rear sits, but want to get the front down just a lil bit more. I dont want to cut anything and I didn't think there was a way of doing it. Someone told me i just have to take out the bump stops. Will this do it? i thought that would just give more suspension travel, but wont lower, am i wrong?

I go the Stoptechs last summer. I still have the cf grill but while driving a shingle or something hit it on the freeway and messed up the clear coat a bit. Im gonna try and fix it.

my clear bra, was turning yellow and had a bunch of scratches in it, so i decided to get rid of it. Its lasted about 4 years, which isnt too bad.
i heated it up a lil with a hair dryer, and started to peel the edge. It came off pretty easy, just needed to pull with a little force. The glue residue that was left, was cleaned off with 3m adhesive remover. Washed that off and it looked brand new again.

you can see the difference in color


some glue residue


All clean!


peeling it off




some residue and dirt


Clean again!

Took it off the fenders and hood for now, will do the bumper another day...
