exhaust tips on each side would look sweet!

True, I have been working on the econo version. It can be done as long as you have a rear add on valence to hide the transverse pipe and drop the left side muffler down......

hey, you can't pass up a good thing when you see one !

Must say, many of the MODS that I hadn't considered are now top priority on my radar scope, mostly because I've seen them on your car, and love 'em !

- folding mirrors, euro convex mirrors, COMAND, Bi-X, fog lights, etc...

the AMG spoiler was probably the first MOD I did.... they've gotten expensive now, as AUTOCLASS had them at a pretty low price then.
You might want to check with HARRIS, because he'll be getting me the AMG rear and front bumper, and can probably order the AMG spoiler as well. If we combine orders, we might be able to save a little in shipping. Just a thought ???

I think if I had a C230K I would debadge it too ! It looks really clean.
But I just love my C320 badge too much.

I use fishing line to remove all my emblems, removed the glue with a little WD40 on a rag...

I can't believe it. I just pulled it off with my fingers and if it was a little hard with my fingernails. It's only double side tape! I'm afraid that if you use any chemicals it might turn into a glob.

thats why i used a clay bar. it picked up all the residue without a problem.

Saprissa

geez people !!!
how many times has it already been posted.... use dental floss or a credit card,
and then some residue remover or clay bar to get rid of the glue. Or do the Puerto Rican fingernail technique !!

just do it !!!

You know what, better yet, just use a hammer and a screwdriver. That will get everything off !!

CitronC230K_03

i used dental floss, a credit card and then a clay bar.

hammer and screw driver were on standby!

so just use a clay bar and and work it into the glue, and it will take it right off?

CitronC230K_03

yes! make sure the clay bar is lubed with the solvent included so it doesnt scratch the clear coat.

Dubs42

suggestions (brand name and store) to pick this up...ive been trying to get a clay bar for washing my car but i cant find a place that has them aroudn here

CitronC230K_03

i dont remember the brand name of min, i think it's maguiars. Peop boys, Kragen, Auto Zone, etc. ask for a clay bar, they usually come with a solvernt ot lube the bar with.

I got my Mother's brand clay bar kit (comes with lube) at Pep Boys.

Well i REALLY need your help guys, i have no idea why its so difficult for me to get the entire gooey stuff of the car.

ive tried this thing i picked up at Autzone called "opps" and i also bought a mother's clay bar and NOTHING so far. With the "opps" i had to rub it in soo much it hurt my shoulder, and bascially with the clay bar and lobe the bar just slid back and forth like ice, not really pickin up anything.

ive even tried using my fingernails approach...AND even tried heating the goo with a hairdryer..

PLEASEEE I NEED HELP ...its driving me CRAZY ..ive been driving around with it for days and it looks terrible

Rub it off using your thumb. It works.

I am telling you use nail polish remover...its ok for your paint. Use it with a lint free cloth....it will work. then apply wax over it and your all good to go!

PRHeloPilot

If you're going to use ACETONE (nail polish remover) then after you get everything out AND BEFORE you wax it, make sure you wash and rinse real good to remove all of it.

My mechanic uses acetone on my helicopter on the painted surfaces and has always been clear that if I do it myself and he's not there, to make sure to wash it real good.

After a good wash and rinse, go for the wax !!

Dubs42

should i let it the nail polish sit on the glue? how long?

or rub the nail polish in and than rub it off hard w/ a rag?

x-tian-230k

u put on a lint free cloth, dab it and then start rubing it back and forth so it causes friction. It should come off in like 10-15 minutes. Again wash your car very well after this is done. It should work.
