All add on lips are attached with a silicon glue, I believe. I heard it's pretty strong. Along with rivits (sp?).
As for tint. I would go with 5% or if you think thats to dark, go with 18-20%.
If you live in a city thats strict, hopefully you have a friend that's a doctor, so he can write something that gives you a legal reason to have darker tint, like I do.

suggestions...
you should purchase a set of 10 mm H&R spacers with longer bolts from me (not using them). i think that would be a good cheap addition to your car. you'll get more agressive look. if interested pm me. i also have mh dezent grille for sale that i bought from germany last may. check the classifieds for pics.

get Carlsson side skirts
just to let you know, the Carlsson side skirts are finally out now for the w203 and the look really good. i have a set on order and will post pics when i get them all installed.
btw, i have the quad exhaust on my ride and it is sweet. it sounds so good, nice and deep, but not too loud, and not ricey sounding at all.

rs kit
i originally ordered the rs kit for my ride as well, but when i saw it in person, i thought it looked way too ricey for a benz. i have pics of the rear unpainted if you would like to see them. the mesh grill just doesnt look right at all, but the rear add on skirt spoiler with the exhaust looks great. it follows the line of the car perfect and really looks like it is ment to be there. also, the rs kit is much more difficult to install and uses some of the original attachments for you factory rear bumper, as well as glue.
the side skirts were $549 plus shipping and the exhaust was $1000.

Carlsson side skirts?
I have a C240 w/ Carlsson 2/5 and I'm planning on getting the Carlsson front and real lip spoilers but to me it seems kind of strange looking without any side skirts... I don't particularly like it when the lines of the car in the front and rear are much lower than the sides. I was thinking of getting the Rieger sides but I think it might be too low compared to the rest of the car with the only Carlsson f/r lip spoilers... Does anyone have any pics of the Rieger kit besides the ones that are on Rieger's web page? Anyone have any ideas for side skirts that would match Carlsson? I was also considering AMG but then the curvy lines of the AMG sides don't seem to flow very well with the fairly striaght Carlsson f/r lip spoilers. I would get the Carlsson RS sides but they seem fairly difficult to get from the shops that I've talked to.

I have the Carlsson front/rear lip. They look great. The front and rear isn't that much lower than the side. By the way, I have the 2/5 too. They match perfectly. =)
p.s. I heard from somewhere that Carlsson decide to produce the side skirts for the front/rear lip kits. But just rumors..

This might look like the carlsson side skirt, not sure though, it looks bigger than the standard side skirt
