Need pricing help with W203 Mods

Hi All,

I want to buy a 05 230 Sport Sedan but it is not available with stone colour interior when the regular sedan is. I'm thinking of 'building' a sport sedan from a regular one with the options I like. I know that I will not be getting the sport seats but I am willing to compromise here. So the question is what will the following parts cost me:

Sport Springs and shocks

AMG body kit with the fogs (I am sure a number of you have done this mod)

Leather steering wheel

Leather shift knob for either auto or manual

Upgraded brakes

Painted door handles.

I'm a little stuck here so any input would be appreciated.

A word of advice..............
To eliminate nasty comments and receive the most help from members..........
1. you need to do the initial search foot work yourself.
2. be specific in you questions.
3. at least know the basic information........(door handles already painted)

Hope this helps you in the long run............

For everything you listed...you are looking at a pretty healthy sum...esp with the body kit and brakes

Sounds wonderful. When will you start? (j/k)

In the great white north they have models available that are not to be had in the US and therefore are equipped differently.

In Canada the door handles do not come painted on the base 05 230 kompressor sedan.

As for 'research' I have researched this car to death but I cannot seem to find reliable pricing on the mods I am after.

On the issue of specificity, I should clear up that I am after OEM parts as those that come on the Sport. I know that there are alternatives to the dealer so I am after the most reasonable expected pricing.

As an aside, Designo is out as the seats have not had the weight sensors homologated for Canada. THAT is research.
