The ol lady painted my side markers and outer part of my grill.. It was only 40 bucks so thats probably why she did it for me. Im trying to post pics but i cant figure it out .. The file is really small 42k but it says it only can be 1 byte big or less. I got a digital camera finally so now i can post pics.. woo hoo

I got AMG sway bars

GMW

Installed Bi-xenons, Clear indicators, clear fogligts, lowered suspension with stage 2 rubbers at the back (standard European height vs high ground clearance), and 18inch AMG style IV with staggered alloys, 225/40 ZR18 Goodyear Eagle F1s DSG3 front, 255/35 ZR18 at the rear!

Unable to post pics yet 1 byte limit makes it kinda hard.

What exactly is the "lowered suspension". I've been trying to find forever a way to get the ride height (esp. in the front) to the standard Euro level. What did you do other than the stage 2 rear pads?

Thanks -

hmmm, santa was really good to me. I got the following,
Carlsson door pins
Carlsson foot pedals w/ dead pedal
Carlsson side badges
211 blinkers

Special thanks to Harris for going through the trouble of getting all the Carlsson products!

kodoq

Where did you find the Carlsson pedals? I need a dead pedal badly.

to lower a car that already has high ground clearance you only need to change all 4 shocks to the standard European height and get stage 2 rubber buffers for the rear. The springs remain the same. The high ground clearance shocks are actually about 1-2 inches longer than the standard shocks! I looked at them myself when they were changing them.
To order the European shocks you need to be with the technician on the Mercedes Benz wis software program and select a Euro spec C-class and make sure it doesn't have code 482 "higher ground clearance", then you'll get the shocks you need. Just look at the part numbers on the computer and make sure that the shocks selected don't go with code 482.
So far my ride quality has remained excellant, seems better than before, much smoother than my 97 Audi A4 which rides on 16 inch rims! Cornering is noticeably flater and steering feels meatier. Only small sharp humps feel a bit sharper. Humps like those that they fill when they dig up the road to install cabling and put too much tarmac covering up the small trench.

I ordered AMG brakes for my baby from Evosport.
Should be here in mid Jan.

The Extreme Contact tires were installed back in Oct. but sure glad I had 'em around Christmas with all the rain we've had.
Don't even feel like I'm in the rain. 'Course the ESP helps alot too.
Perfect traction. Sweet. With all the parties and events I've been going to in the pouring rain....so nice.
We got 4.5 inches here yesterday. Yes, you read correctly.
4.5". And I've been commuting 50 miles each way.
Meanwhile, 20-30 miles away they get 10 inches all year.
Wild eh?

Meanwhile while I wait for the brakes, I have pics posted on the walls of various cars...I think I have a pic of Mark Cummings Red coupe with AMG's and C7's printed out on glossy computer paper.

Lustfully Beautiful.

Looking forward to the feel of 4 piston calipers.
The rear already have 2 piston cal's.
Wonder why they went so chincy on the fronts?
The pads wear on one side.
