I m out of the town at the moment.
I will update U with more pics. from the side when I m back.
The grill I've is from MP-Design - Germany

MP-Design Germany

It cost me about USD370 including installation & spray painting.
I found the material & chrome quality to be good as compared to
those @ eBay.
It's simple plug & play except I've to relocate one of the front horn slightly to the left of the stock position.
I know some of the guys here doesn't like it becos of the frame unlike the
one from MH-Dezent which cost much more.

Hi Frank,

I sure luv your C32 & how I wish I can own one like yours
I saw one in our local show room & probably U would
faint if U know the price of one over here in our country.
It has a whooping price tag of >USD135,000 to get one on to the road.
Here we pay ridiculously high taxes when we buy a car.
For my puny C180K, I've to cough out >USD85,000 for the basic car

kepiting: is that stock height or did you lower it already? I am asking this cos I am wondering what will my dad's C200 in Indo look when I put 17" AMG thin spoke with stock height. It will be about 3 more weeks to get the wheels.

Thanks

Hi KZ,

When your dad put in the 17" AMG rims & with the right tires selection,
there will be no difference in stock height as the overall wheel diameter
remains the same i.e 24.98"

wahahahaha! :p :p :p
I got half a ton of I.C.E (In Car Entertainment) loaded up in the boot
& that reduced the rear height by at least 1/2" but not the front.
This time round, the ICE in my C180K is nothing to shout about
& it's not as bad as my previous W124. :p Pls. see pics. below.





I will later post some more pics. of my C180K from the side & boot.

Current I.C.E on my C180K

Hi,
Your point has been taken.
When I get a buyer for my 17" Brabus rims or I get sick of them,
I might consider the Lorinser LM-5 rims staggered :p :p :p
Thank U!
