WOW SUPER slammed!
I remember SEXPHERE's old C320 was dumped like that and he ruined his front fenders with in a month, but again Toronto has sucky roady condition, all wavey and potholes everywhere
The more I see your car, yours almost looks like SEXPHERE's HAHA..You just need BIX, WALD kit and Eisenmann sport. He had the sam style of wheels like yours, Autocouture Magnifique (Have no idea how to spell that)
His car was silver as well
Anyways, LOOKING GOOD, outer!

Update shots.
Finally settled on the Brabus Monoblock VI reps in 18x8.5 up front with a 1 inch lip and 18x9.5 in the rear with a 3 inch lip.
I did the blackout in the inlays, what a nightmare!!!!
Tires are Sumitomo 225/40's up front and 255/35's out back. handles tremedeously now and rides better then stock. She Loves it.

It has a stock suspension I just did a photoshop 1.5 drop, that is in the future as long as the comprimise isnt too bad ride wise. I did blackout the chrome along the bottom of the side glass and the chrome on the moldongs is next for the AXE!
I prepped the surface with a scotch pad, then used adheision promoter then several coats of Duplicolor HIGH HEAT ceramic engine enamel in gloss black.
SO you lowered guys, preferably 1.5 drop, is the ride that bad? Are you dodging manholes and one wheel at a time up small inclines? Etc.. Remember this is the WIFES car, is a 1.5 drop Woman friendly? LOL!!

depends on if the woman knows how to drive a lowered car. you can always teach her. i've seen plenty of girls drive modded cars around LA.

To be honest, I always try to avoid potholes especially those big deep ones even with my stock 16s. Just trying to baby my suspension (arms ETC) because those stuffs could be pretty costly
In your case, lowered or not, you/ the wifey should always avoid those potholes whenever you can. You don't want to ruin/bend/crack those new wheels within months
In fact, my mom's C is lowered (Eibach and Bilstein shocks) with 19s and has the same height as your Photoshoped car..She complained a little about the ride at first, but her C came with classic/elegance suspension, not sport, so I think your wife should get used to it with the firm ride by now

that red one
Thanks so much Mu9enx! I really love driving it. My husband says a huge NO to a drop. There's a couple of things that I want to mod on my car like the exhaust system or at least change the tip on it and he was dead set against that too. I also want to ad the trunk spoiler and he put the kabosh on that too!! 
At least I got my windows tinted and got new rims & tires put on!

why won't he let you change the tips? it's cheap and looks better without the noise..

In all honesty he doesn't want to change it cuz HE thinks it's fine the way it is and if I wanted the "newer" exhaust then I should have bought an 06' or 07' model. I've even said that I'll take care of the whole thing, buying it and having it installed. He freaked out even more....the truth be known he could do the whole thing himself including making a fine looking tip (he welds etc..) but he doesn't want to mess with it. He only wants to work on HIS car
It's all good, I'm VERY happy with my car, maybe, eventually I'll wear him down
