2017 GLA 250, 2011 C63 P31 (p30 w/ lsd) (in repair), 2005 C230 Sport Eurocharged, 2003 C320~sold
2003 C320 Sport
Hey all wanted to share my new kicks -- Vossen CVT Sorry about the bad pics and dirty car but just got finished working on it :P
19x8.5 frt 235/35
19x10 rear 275/30 (yes they fit with no fender rolling/pulling/cutting but still stock height--will see once I drop it a little)
Original wheels were appx 23mm from rim to outside of fender and 39mm rear. New wheels flush frt and 4mm rear.
Just got a dual exhaust installed on the C230K, sorry for the phone camera pictures, super sunny outside.
Exhaust custom fabricated at a shop in Sacramento, CA (Muffler Tech on Florin Road). It uses magnaflow so a bit noisy inside, but overall, I'm happy. The tips are oval and as close to the stock tip as I could find.
Other Major Stuff:
-Lowered on H&R springs.
-Rims are being worked on and should get it on with new tires in November.
Other Minor Stuff:
- black grill, flat hood emblem, clear corners, 5k leds replacing all bulbs, trunk badge delete, trunk lip
Love the exhaust, looks great. That's almost exactly what I want to do to my 350!
I picked up a cf front lip from one of our sponshors here (Gary@Suvneer). It didn't come with any mounting hardware or any pre-drilled holes like some of the other members got, but it wasn't too hard to do it. I had a friend help.
The rear diffuser I got on ebay. At first I was sad because after doing the dual exhaust mod, there wasn't enough clearance to slide it in. I was planning on selling it but then I went back to the exhaust shop and told them about it and they rewelded it for me free. I was able to fit the diffuser in so the next thing was to actually install it. The material and fitment is pretty bad, just like what everyone said. I found a body shop that was able to install it for me. They used some heavy duty glue and had it clamped on for the weekend and used 2 bolts at the bottom left/right sides to secure it even more. I painted the bolts black so it wouldn't stand out too much. There was also a gap between the diffiuser and the bumper since they couldn't get it flush. I use some trim weather stripping to line the edges and fill the gap. Turned out pretty good.

How did you go about getting the front lip? I see them online, but they all tend to be for the C32's
Thanks for the reply, Gary! Only problem is I have a stock C320. That's why I haven't been able to buy one online, they all fit the C32 front bumpers only.
