Gaps? there's only one gap passenger front? but just needed a new clip already picked one up from the dealer
Yes sir!
To each their own definitely get a lot more props than haters haha
Eh I'd say about 1/4 inch higher than on the floor usually only use that preset for smooth freeways and roads though

Everything about this car is so cool. Style 5s fitted. On air. WAGON w203! Ya just dont see this frequently!
Strong work!
Also, you're one lil tab away from that front bumper/fender fitting absolutely perfectly! Are you gonna try wider wheels in the future?

Not really sure why somebody should be called a "hater" just because they do not like the style, but anyway...
I like a lot of things on this car (wheels, cleanliness etc.), just not the way it sits all the way on the ground. At a little lower ride height than stock I think it would look awesome.

slamming to the ground prevents the wheels from being jacked and towed when parked lol you cant hate air suspension because old MB have them stock and lowered when the car is parked for easy of access to get in and out of the car.

I'm not a hater, but obviously I'm not the target demographic.
I'm old school and I believe in form follows function. When I worked for Dinan (BMW tuner) the cars were only lowered about 3/4". The suspension needs travel for them to function properly. I know that a lot of time/work went into this car and I appreciate that...but it's just not my cup of tea.

Blech. Ghetto fabulous. Fail on the faster wear of tires and components.
Everyone knows your car is not going to be a high performance canyon carver. But why kids want to ride around in jouncing sled is beyond me.
