Once I get the side skirts and rears done it'll flow better. The AMG sides don't flow with the new front lines that's why I'm modifying those. And once I put the real widebody it'll flow with the body lines. Once the final body work is done it'll look better.
New rear diffuser in. Got some GTR tips from my buddy and they fit perfectly. Now just gotta modify it to fit the rear and lower it some to flow with the front. Next need sides next and hopefully the main exterior will be done until I can get the real wide body going.
Your C230 looks great, like what you've done to it. I myself em looking to buy new wheels for my 05 C230k sedan. I was hoping you could give me some insight on wheel fitment. I plan on going with 18x9.5 +10mm 5x114.3 for the front & 18x11 +8mm 5x114.3 for the rear. Is this possible? Will it give me problems before/after I install them?
Sincerely, Royal Stance

You'll have to pull the front and rear a lot to get that fitment. I ran 18x10 +2 and 18x11 + 4 and rolled and pulled a lot on the fenders. Anything is possible but you'll have to do work. Also if you go to low in the front you might rub tire on the coil.
Hey Phister, thanks for the reply.
Ok so, what do you mean by pulling the front & the back, And how would I do that exactly?

Round 2 flares going on. Love these flares a lot more than the zg flares. Gonna retro them a lil to make my liberty walk style. They're abs plastic too so a lot better than the fiberglass. Finally getting her looking how I want. Rear bumper getting new diffuser molded on right now.
