It's clean, I hope you did the clear headlights. And the pre-facelift w203's seem to have a more noticeable blue tint as compared to the facelifted it would seem.

Got a new alternator but in today and also put bulbs in the impact strips to get rid of the error msg (wrapped them in foil then rubber tape and finished it off with electrical tape)

Now im looking into getting some hids for my fogs and headlights.
I was thinking either 6k for both or 3k fogs and 6k headlights. Any suggestions? (most likely getting them from ddm tuning)

Little update, got a magnaflow put on, dropped the car and new pads and rotors all around. I still think it needs to go a little lower in the front so i'm gonna wait a month or two for the springs to settle and if its not low enough imma cut em :O

Thanks guys. Did a pretty gnarly tune up on the e30 today. New plugs, seafoam, cleaned the head cover (disgusting btw). It still runs like crap but it's getting there haha
