Looka great .
Ill be the first to say it so here it goes - it needs a drop man! Seriously that would really set it off and tie in all the mods you've done so far.
Anyways congrats and keep us updated with your plans for the car.

FWIW, the 2005+ C-class sat quite a bit lower stock than the 2001-2004. I'm not seeing why a drop would be necessary. Then again, I can't stand the look of a modded C - they just don't look right.

Nice car man!!
I would,
1.Paint your stock amber corners to black.
2. Drop!!
3.Paint your calipers
4.Tint your tail lights?
5. C55 Lip spoiler
6.CF Lip?

Alot of members go with H&R springs..I have them and love em, I cut about a coil and half on the fronts, Sits really nice for springs,..about a finger gap all around..If you could shell out 1600 for coilovers that would be best!
