is that graphite grey metallic? looks like it. thats the color of my old car. dont see it very often at all, even less so on a non-sport w203. very clean car! i suggest you buy euro impact strips... would be a geat way to clean it up even more.

I love the non-sport fascia. Very sophisticated, but still stylish. THe fewer mods you do, the cleaner it'll look. My favorite car on here is leozip's. He has a black c200k (from Brazil) with non-AMG styling. All he did was lower it, spoiler, wheels, euro impact strips (from factory there in Brazil), flat badge, and a grille (grille was only thing unecessary)... and it's the cleanest w203 here, IMO (2nd place goes to ROLN).
Modded non-AMG cars stick out in my mind as the average custom w203 here has the exact same AMG kit... and the aftermarket kits are a bit on the "busy" side, again, IMO.
Start your own thread, and keep us updated with your mods! Anxious to see this one come of age!

Not a whole lot to show for now. 18" C63 wheels in the near future, painting the calipers black within the next few weekends. AZN Optics city lights installed a few days ago. Keeping it simple with this one. Last vehicle is in the background. Got WAYY out of hand, and drivability went in the toilet. Who would have thought a High performance V8 in a ranger doesn't do well as a daily driver.

Yeah I know... ain't no thing... lol
So i was browsing ebay and found these OZ 17" AMG wheels hehe, I contacted the guy and he said we can work a deal out on them WOOT... so I might be selling my CLS500 wheels.
But should I go down to 17's from my 18's? I'm thinking I just might bite the bullet and get them
I browsed their site and they have these Leon Hardritt wheels too in 18s...hmmmmm
WHICH ONE GUYS?!?!

Car groups in Texas have been trying have the front license plate law revoked for years. I can only dream. It sure screws up the looks of my cars.

Thanks fookoo303
Ah, yes thank you for pointing that out, I can see I went a little overboard with the pictures haha. I am a bit new to this, but yes, I took those 16" five spokes from a 2004 C280 Sport. The staggered stance makes my oldie look much newer, as the old oem's sort of sank behind the rear fenders. Never was a fan of those.
