welcome to the forum! I usually don't like headlight rings on our cars but I really like your black ones because it flows with the color of you car, reminds me of a E class.

Here are some quick pics of my car since it is sold.
I was trying to sell my car to get a C204. I put up a for sale sign on it and my dad saw it.
He will be selling his Ford Fiesta to buy my W203. So the good thing is that i know it will be in good hands and i could still drive it sometimes.

I tried laminating the interior trim with real carbon fiber. Didn't work out that well and since i wanted to sell the car i just wrapped it in 3m cabron fiber.

The CL204 ntg 2.5 with fake carbon trim

Caliper clearance on the cls55 amg wheels.

Random pics and pics to show how flush the wheels are for reference for other people.
Front coilovers are maxed out. In the rear i still have some thread left. Chrome trim on the outside is also wrapped in 3m carbon.

'06 W203 C 280 4Matic '10 W164 ML 63 AMG
W203 lower/wider project from St. Petersburg, Russia

So here's another W203 from Russia.
It's an 06' C 280 4Matic with 100k kms on clock.
Got it new back in the summer 06, but only a few months ago went on and done some modding...
06' C 280 4Matic (restyling)
Mileage: 98k kms
Engine: M272 3.0 naturally-aspired V6
4Matic 5G-Tronic transmission
Diamond Black color - rare for W203
Avantgarde edition
Bi-Xenons and other fun stuff

- OEM AMG pedal kit
- Dynavin D99 head unit with DTV, Navi, 3G, Rear camera, iPod and other stuff instead of Audio 20
- Ultra-rare set of 18'' BBS Impuls. Seems like it's the first Benz to meet these rims. Sizes are 8J stretched on 215/40s and 225/40s on 9J Falken ZE-912.
- Camber set at -3.2 degrees (rear axle)
- 5 and 20 mm custom wheel spacers done exactly for proper 114.3==>112 fitment.
- 4-Pot Brembo braking system from W220 S55 painted in dark-violet with cross-drilled 330mm ATE brake rotors.
- -50mm H&R springs (damn, so rare and hard to order)
- No tint
Soon planning to do:
- Find the way to drop the front a bit more
- Eisenmann Race exhaust with Vibrant piping (incl. Euro-2 chip-tuning and cutting Lambda Sonds)
- C 55 AMG interior swap
- Webasto panoramic roof project
- Thule stuff to cary my fixed gear.

Project is on it's way and my goal is to keep it clean but nasty. Hope you guys like it. Greetings from St. Petersburg.

My ML 63 and C 280 4Matic


The wheel stuff

Thank you.
The color code's DB768

you can find any Benz paint code here:
http://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au...s_mercedes.htm

Here's a bit more cruising photos:




... R21 Borbet vs. R18 BBS Impul



... Dynavin fitted in quite OK, not an NTG 2.5, but good enough (might be lucky here)



... and with my friends' R170 SLK slammed on -80mm, 17-inch OZ Monoblocks 9/10J and -8 camber setup...





.. rockin' on
