i'm so jealous of you guys always working on your cars together...
I wish I lived up there, so I can join the install parties !
Not that I could help in anything, I'm pretty much useless,
but I can always buy beer !

all joking aside, how does the car feel now? the stockie way looked like chit in comparison to the AMG one...
but you guys didn't do a good write up, you should have weighed them too!

My wifey and I had an install party when I needed an extra set of hands installing my Brabus front lip, but she complained the whole time. My mistress Josefina never complains...

E,
When rtking inherited my takeoffs, he said they were a direct (12MM) bolt on for his Coupe.
Another front AMG bar is being shipped from an MBWorld member to help reduce my chronic understeer. I'll tweak and test to confirm which works better in the taxi. Either way, I’ll soon have an extra front bar. It’s yours for the asking.
As an aside, an obscure tidbit of MB parts bin engineering reveals that the AMG sedan rear bar is actually the same as originally installed in the W203 wagon chassis. Never use the word "AMG" if you don't have to when sourcing parts from your preferred vendor!
