I think your setup looks great man, although im kinda bummed with 19" wheels, its not very comfortable to drive with, especially if you live in a bumpy road area... I learned it the hard way... Ugh..

I saw a C class on air suspension back in 2009 at DangerZone truck and car show, being the nosy type of person that i am and not to mention the fact that i am a MB owner i wanted to know more about it. but they guy all he could tell me was that he was getting ready to sell it cause he was done with it. I asked him how it rode and all he could tell me was that it rode better stock. I also own a truck on air suspension, but the truck is a truck and the benz is......well is a benz.

the ride isnt that bad with the 19s..but def not as smooth as my stocks..
ill take more pics after i detail it next weekend..got too much waterspots n swirls that i gotta get rid of..black is so hard to take of!!

as for the air..the rears are fairly simple..just a shock n bag setup in the back..
for the front..the shop is planning to make a bracket that will be threaded to the h & r coilovers..they'll prolly use a bellow-type bag to mount onto the strut and raise the coilover/bracket over the wheels so it wont rub on the bag..also..the shop said that theres this bushing in the front strut that they would have to replace in order to get more slammage in the front..



on different note..does anyone know if wald makes a lip kit for my 2003 c230 sport sedan and where to get one..and if there are any replicas out??? im not about to spend 3,000+ just for a lip kit..
n i don think think the amg body kit would match the style im going for..
