I drive an '11 C300 and wife drives an '11 GLK350
Personally I would never add the AMG sticker to my front windshield but the diffuser and exhaust tips are nice.

Why does your car sit so high up over the wheels or is it just the angle of the picture on how it was taken?

Also, as mentioned before, tiniting the front windshield is about as terrible an idea as I have ever heard. Period.

Unless you have a medical condition like Lupus, sunlight allergy, melanoma or photosensitivity it is illegal in almost every state to tint your windshield outside of a top strip (and even on some states that's illegal). It is more dangerous as you can't see as well with all windows tinted. Do you also tint your headlights black as it looks cooler, wait, that's also illegal. You are welcome to do as you like and I am sure some tint shop is willing to take your money but it is inherently more dangerous when you reduce your visibility. period

Not illegal if you have a script .... Migraines every day qualifies so .... But headlights are a bad idea though I would agree .... But I don't get any questions about the windshield because all my other windows are 5% ... And you get use to the windshield after driving for couple days

Wasn't aware you could get a script for migraines. I suffer from the at least 3 days a week sometimes more. Very light sensitive.
No Hate at all, as I said if there is a medical reason it makes sense (hell may go ask my doctor if I can get a script) but otherwise I just think it's a safety hazard.

You should be able to ... Especially if it's been noted by your doctor over time ... I've had for as long as I can remember .... What state you live in??? No harm man was just trying to explain lol

New Springs and Pads

Installed H&R Super Sports with 5mm rear pads. I'm impressed with the ride quality and looking forward to it settling a bit more. Anyone have an idea of how much theirs settled from the time of installation?

Not bad. Lowering springs of some sort would compliment the BLQ's a little more.

Yeah i'm considering it, the roads where i'm from are already so bad as it is. Plus I got a 3 year warranty so don't want to deal with them trying to void it if I go lower.

Same here. I live in PA where the roads are the worst in the world. Also it will only void your springs/struts not your entire warranty. I know this for a fact because I too have a CPO warranty on my 14. I ran the H+R Super Sports. I love the look and ride.

Welcome to the Benz life, they truely are awesome machines. You've definitely come to the right place if your looking to mod it out, if it can be done there's info on it in here. If not, just ask, someone's either done it or tried it.
