i contacted classic soft trim and the company has been absorbed/taken over by roadwire. unfortunately, roadwire wouldn't do it either because they said there is a particular thread that mercedes uses that can be broken when the air bag is deployed... and its something they can't get a hold of. so they refuse to do it for safety reasons.

anyways... looks really nice superbee... post more pics when you have them

C320 coupe
bumping this dead thread for my new project after I totalled the coupe

Finally the w140 is sort of done...

Air suspension
Subs + Amps + HU
Champaign rack
Lowernhart LDR
Tinted clear tail
Luxury Grille
Clear headlight (not installed waiting for HID)

enjoy!








Hydraulics VS Static VS Air suspension or the boxy mercedes generation lowness


Future:
Custom curtains
Logo on the seat
Puddle light

now the question is... what to do with the wheels?!?!
when it is lowered is nice with the chrome but when it is raised

mod please change the title xsuperbeex's coupe & w140 photoshoot & thread
