Great attitude, still not my cup of tea, but I applaude you.

Well I've made a decision on widening out the front fenders and rear quarters a little bit more than just a regular roll and pull, and all this was done with the factory panels their is no fender flares or anything added here. So the fronts are fully pulled and the rears basically look like the front before they were pulled cause we all know our W203 chassis, the rears quarters aren't too wide to begin with. So i know its going to sound crazy and i know lots of criticisms will go on back and fourth but here it goes......imma try to aim for as close too ZERO offsets as possible. i have a few more things to touch up on the body work so as soon as that is done ill be doing test fitments. ill take photos of test fitment day so you all can see the work in progress as well as a the wheels in production Kartel Forged AF.FIVE . Well enjoy these pics of the widening.

I dont know about you but I hope you live someplace where they are no potholes or speedbumpers. Because here in NYC with a setup like that... say goodbye to everything undernearth lol.. It looks nice.. And i would highly recommend against the CCFL headlamps.. It really throws the look of the car off. If anything I would go with the depo oem style projector setup. Either A/M headlamp is going to have a horrible beam pattern. The depos just look a lot nicer

naaa.....don't like it, makes it look like a cheap civic........

but whatever floats your boat....beauty is in the eye of the beholder.....

If I drive a benz I wanna enjoy the qualities of the benz and one of it being the suspension and not feeling the potholes......

Well I can understand all the negative feedback but I tell you all one thing with the suspension setup I have from ceika performance it's unbelieveble ride height is super lower than any other manufacture without any cutting and it drives fairly nice for the stance that it has. The wheels will soon hit the CNC machine and then I will slap them on and photoshoot away.

I guess I am too old as well, that car looks like the suspension collapsed, I am sure the ride and handling suffers. Roads here are anything but billiard table smooth and need suspension travel to go over potholes, speed humps, driveway ramps.

I feel the correct look on the front is if there is equal distance all around the fender arch on the front

as much as people dont wanna believe it but for as low as the car is the car drives mighty well and handles fairly.
