Frank I agree! Haha I am using my front plate to cover up the holes put in by the previous owner who's state required front plate. Lucky me Indiana doesn't need one! I am going to get those filled in. As for the hood star that will be off this week as well as my flat badge comes in. I'll update the pic on here when I get it

I had 50% on the windshield with 20% all around on my black C240. It looked pretty good but couldve been a lil darker. I think with your 15% 50% would be perfect. I want mine 35% now on my mars red C230

I was looking into 35 but that might be too dark haha. Now what did you do when you got your car inspected? The sticker is on the tint so how did you not get it scratched?

Not sure what the exact offset is but going to run with spacers in the rear as you see in the picture. Tire size, im going to do 205/35 on the front and 225/35 on the rear. Putting the the tires off until I can get some coilovers first

After a week and a half at the shop the bumper looks much better. I was actually pretty surprised they even replaced the CF wrap on the diffuser.
