Welcome to the forum and enjoy your stay. People are pretty laid back and cool here and not to mention have a lot of knowledge to pass down. Feel free to post any questions you have.

Also, that guy ^ has a lot of knowledge himself on Star Diagnostics, the computer Mercedes-Benz uses to make changes to your car's computer system, and a whole bunch of other features. (Just don't let him touch your car. Rumor has it he set off the airbags of his buddy's w203. )

Thanks for the welcomes. I look forward to getting to know you guys and gaining knowledge on the way. Ill post some pics tonight. Its all stock so nothing amazing as of now. ive been trying to find some nice lip kits or somthing to give it a little more style/aggresive look.

Will a lip for an amg fit my car? Found a carbon fiber one but says amg so j/w. Also where are good places to get modifications for the mercedes like lip kits and exterior things also looking for hid kits for headlights and fog lights. thanks

If you have the frosted headlights, I would save up for the bixenons or the clear headlights and then put in HIDs. It's a big difference.
