Hells Angel's C320 Coupe
I have been off the forum for the past 3 months.. i am back with a small amateur photoshoot...
c320 coupe
black & black leather
pano
updated head lights (high beam : xenon, low beam xenon)
updated fog lights (xenon)
updated euro tail lights
clear side markers
18" amg replicas + time attack (installed few weeks ago)
poser mod : red brake kit
Lorisner roof spoiler
Mattig grill painted 040 black
under car led lights (3x2)
Lanzar 2din HU + Rear view cam + Sony Xplod subwoofer & Crown Amplifier (just for daily use)
i know ill get many critiques on the red brakes but i like the way it matches the red time attack and red tails...
i live in lebanon ---> i CANT lower the car...
already have clears & 2 xenon sets so its too late for bix...
any other comments are more than welcome

I'd have to agree - I don't really like the faux time attacks (though on faux AMG rims, it may be a double negative that turns into a positive ).
I think the brakes look fine, but with the time attack ring, there's too much red in that area. (not to mention the fact that you have several bits of poseur mods in addition to them, so they're not alone)
What I would do:
tint the side markers
tint the side blinkers
remove the time attack rings
paint the top line of the grille to match (the chrome stands out too much, imho)
if you're not going to lower the car, at least get beefier sways
and, of course, a sprint booster

1999 CLK320 (sold), 2007 C230 SS (gone), 2000 Grand Marquis, 2011 CR-Z, stay tuned...
I think it looks great. I like the red (but not the rings... sorry). Though I didn't like the coupes at first, they have grown on me alot since joining this forum, and I think that yours is one of the good ones.
I saw an 03-04 Coupe C320 Kompressor today at UNF. Stock otherwise (from what I could see). Really makes you wonder. If you know enough to know that a C320 kompressor would be cool, you know enough to know it's

03 c320 coupe
thank you for the positive feedback..
thx..
im not sure about pshoping the gap
its not that i dont want to lower, i just cant.. some of the roads i use are horrible + a lot of speed bumps.. & i was used to drive a 4x4 with 16" instead of a car with 18"....
i dont want to tint the side markers, blinkers & tails...
the chrome stands out too much in the pictures but not in real, + it matches the wheels lip..
windows + side markers + blinkers + tails + chrome grill part + chrome lip = 1 package, i tint everything or nothing......
About the sways i totally agree, but i dont want to spend money on performance mods since im planning to trade for an CLK55 soon...
i discussed the sprint booser in a thread called "sprint booster scientific review".. i will not buy it before trying it.. i dont know anyone who have it.. so ........... will the sprint booster for the c320 work on a CLK ? on a AMG ?
and what are the poser mods ??????????????
not exactly.. not planning on tinting everything.. we happen to share the car color & wheels... and i stole his time attack idea
im posting this reply from france, and i was driving the car in lebanon yesterday... so ?
thx
thx
a lot of posers.. C320 kompressor is much better than the CLK on a C coupe
why do you think i live in a desert ?

hmm, idk what to say!
IMO, if you want a TA ring, the ring should be no more than 1/4" thick, seems like youre using a 1/2 inch ring! that's too big of a ring, especially on a set of 18s! if it's a set of 18s, you should use a 1/8" thick ring! (like I have on my new SLwheels!)
I think you should black out the lips if you def want to stick with a TA ring, it looks better!
overall, lookin good. reminds me of my coupe way back!

yeah i know that blacked out lip looks better but im not good with vinyl.. the TA ring im using is 1cm thick.. thats less than 1/2"
anyway no more mods for the car, waiting the CLK i guess & planning on keeping it clean (bix, euro63, cf lip & cf trunk lip only)..
any comment on the clk55 ?

Yes, that was a joke about the sprintbooster, as I have seen your thread about them. Funny thing is that I just got one to replace the one that went bad 3 months ago (the old design - had it in the car for 3 years), and personally, I still like the feel of the car with one in it. Even knowing what it does and does not do, I'm still on the "gotta have it" side of the fence.
