2003 Mercedes C230 Kompressor Coupe
New Member
Hey what's up mbworld im Brandon from long island and just joined the forums. I've owned my 2003 c230 since last February and i am starting to mod the car a little over a year later. Nothing crazy yet, i just plasti dipped the grill and emblems to see what it would look like (might peel it off) and also changed the halogen bulbs for much brighter Philips bulbs.
My most recent purchase however, was a magnaflow muffler. Should be getting it by Wednesday. http://images.magnaflow.com/02product/parts/14830.jpg
I'm not sure if i should remove the resonator or not yet, i would definitely like to hear some opinions!
Anyway, here's a picture of what she looks like now!

Just throw on the muffler and see how you like it before doing anything else with the exhaust.
Nice to see another coupe in the tristate. But damn, the coupe looks like a 4x4 at stock height.
Welcome to the forums, enjoy your time here, remember that the sedan owners are jealous of our much more attractive coupes, and you'll do fine.

lol I do like the coupe look but I love my sedan since I was in the market for a 4 door at the time I was looking for my next car, now I have 2 sedans lol think the only coupe I would get right now is the CRZ if I did look for one.

I've heard of lots of problems with Tein C/Os, so do some research before buying a set.
H&Rs are popular here (there should be a thread on them near the top here).
One company that has an application for our cars that I haven't seen any activity on here is Fortune Auto (VA company); I'll probably be getting a set of theirs for my CRX when my Tokicos have finally cry uncle. They might be worth a look. But for the most part, there aren't many possibilities for our cars, so it shouldn't be hard to find reviews of the major players in the C/O arena.
