and this summer I did springs, flathood badge, tint, DIY smoked lights, and chop off the resonator.
this is the car as of this moment, I will get the painted grille back in a day or two.

Like I said before I NEVER thought you would even drop your car let alone tint, tail lights wheels-good thing you did though because it looks MUCH better!!! You dont look like the '05 C230 SS

Hey Frank,
I noticed in your "before" pics you didn't have the "V6 Kompressor" side badges. Did you add them yourself?
I'm just wondering when I call the parts dept. at my dealer, what exactly to ask for. Am I looking for the side badges for the C32?

Diamond,
yeah, they are the side badges on the C32. Just don't use the V6 part.
I could use those V6's, but wouldn't know where to stick 'em on my C320 COUPE. Kinda tacky.
Didn't some of the CLK's have the KOMPRESSOR badges on the side too ???

I don't think I ever put you down. But if I did, you probably deserved it.

i think nicedeboy is thinking that Frank's C32 is a wannabe since he didnt have badges on the fenders in that first pic. nicedeboy, i've seen his car, its a C32.

how can nicedeboy afford a C55, but can't afford a camera ?
aren't disposable digital cameras like $3.99 at WalMart ?
oh wait, this is the same C55 that only costs $26K right ?
must be that non-tax state thing ! yeah right !

just so if anyone's wondering I took off the badge when I first got the car and put it back on a year later. I realize I like the badge more.
nicedesboy, how about posting a picture of your suppose "$25k C55" ? 
thx for the comments guys. I'll post pic when I get the grille back probably tomorrow.
