So far
full tint, h&r springs, flat hood badge, coupe door pins, painted calipers, All to be done in the morning. I wonder if clear lenses on my fogs with piaa 9006 superwhite bulbs(have) would be worth the effort?

I would say, go and upgrade the fogs to Xenons!!, you will not regret it... better done it once and done

It's ok though, I think we've come to form a pretty good "MB Mod Protection Society". You just got link everything back to safety. You know so when the baby comes the full tint will protect him/her from dangerous UV rays, and the H&R springs will help the ride so when he/she is drinking milk the bottle doesn't keep falling out of his mouth, and the flat hood badge will help you see what's in front of you so as to not hit anything inadvertently and risk any injury, and the coupe door pins will pay off later when he/she is older and might have been tempted to pull the sedan pins up, and the painted calipers, well they are there to remind you of the good stopping power that your car has in emergency situations, and finally the clear lenses on the fogs will help illuminate the road better at night.
Repeat after me:
Mods are good. Babies are good. Mods & Babies go together !!!
These are not the droids you're looking for.
Move along.

His car was on time out imposed by me and not in the shop. Because I released his car, he can get his new exhaust and you can get his old one.
If his car was not released from timeout then no exhaust for you or him... Read the past post

It you are talking about Mario, then you need to talk with me about his car.
His car is not in the shop........ I have the keys and his car has been placed on timeout
What about the Cupkit you mentioned?

I will bring you the info that you need regarding OEM mods... bad thing is that most of it is only doable at the time you built the vehicle though ...lol AND NOT available in the USA...lol
