Thank you so much for all the information. I'm new to the forum and I remember seeing your car on IG. What's pretty cool is seeing your car transformed from the dealership to now is amazing. Your experiences and thought process during those times are priceless in making your car the way you wanted it to be. I'm in the beginning process of doing a few mods to my daily car right now. Lowering / wheels are in the brain storming process as I speak. I've learned a lot on here just by going through 7 pages of your information. For that, I thank you and salute you.

@Ismael Ibarra w203 is code for chassis. w203 are basically 2001-2007 C Class models. Engine size, trim doesn't matter. There is actually a more distinct designation that has a 3 digit code after the 203.xxx. For example take the C55, that is a 203.076 or the C350 which is a 203.056.
