the green is really dark here, which is how it can look on a cloudy day. when i tried to duplicate the color but trying to get the entire car it just didnt come out the same!

ok, i STFF, and im more confused. once you start talking underneath the car i get all messed up. i wanna keep my wheels. im not looking to get suspension or springs or whatever. i wanna push the wheels out. if i order the 20mm H&R spacers from autoclass and the 20mm bolts that go with them, is that all i need. you posted somewhere about a brake pad #4 or something. my brakes wont rub will they?

The spacers and bolts are all you need. The H&R spacers are a good choice and should cost ~$94 plus ~$25 for bolts. The pads you are thinking of are for the springs. You won't be getting new springs so don't worry about pads.

That does not sound like a bad mod, really cheap. But i have my car lowered with the H&R springs, and it the back it looks slammed, if I got spacers wont it with the fenders from the side?

I had my car lowered with Vogtland springs and still was able to run with the H&R spacers with NO rubbing

its awesome! i love it. havent one complaint. well when it cost me $33 yesterday to fill up maybe, but other than that nothing. my climate control didnt work. i tried to install it 4x and no luck so i sold it to davidta. i have no idea why it wont work other than the calif emissions excuse i got from the dealership, which makes no sense cause the calif C320's have the same part #. oh well. the box says 203 830 09 85 as well does the unit itself. the buttons say rest and ec, but it just doesnt work right. when i installed it the first time it was like it remembered the settings from the last control and air was hot. the air only came out of the defrost vents. then i took it out put in old one and set that one to cold and tested all the vent setting and such. put back in the digital and then the air was cold no matter what temp was set at on the control and air only came out the floor. it was like that the 2 other times afterwards installed it. only cold air from the floor. im not sure if its cause my car is a 2003 with a later build or what. who knows. i havent found a local car to test it out with and davidta was willing to buy it. if it doesnt work for him ill just send it back where i got from. they said they woudl give me credit and i know i can find some goodies to buy! so its his. other than that drama, and the the rain all is well. lovin it!!!!

thanks! i love it. all mods are OEM parts far. euro split mirrors for the driver/passenger rearview mirrors, illuminated sills, sl e brake cover, and audio 10. i love the audio 10 and illuminated sills the most. i really like the RDS feature of it but not many stations in san diego have. well PBS does and i dont listen to that. but when i visit my parents in l.a. area there are tons of stations there with RDS. its cool cause it shows up in the center display well. illuminated sills speak for themselves. i ordered the 20mm H&R spacers and bolts today (thanks KWIK) so those arent OEM but im sure ill like. nothing else planned of yet!
