Here is my 2008 C200 Kompressor.
Was Avantgarde trim.
Bought original and repainted all the optical AMG style package from UK.
Wheels are AC Wheels 18x8 all around weighing 8.5kg each.
Equipped with Michelin Pilot Sport 4, 225/40.
Tinted all around 25%.
Lowered with Eibach Pro Kit springs, matched perfectly with Bilstein B8.
Diederichs rear led smoked lights.
2017 original black Mercedes emblem.
Piano black AMG grill.
Some more changes may come in the future.
I hope you like it!

As you know its not just the springs.
These springs must be matched with struts specificaly made for lower springs.
What i mean.
If you mix Eibach Pro kit with the OEM SACHS (A2043202666-A2043260500) even though these struts are an updated version,
you get a lower look but a harsh-bumpy ride(my previous setup).
Not a recommended combination.
If you do the Eibach pro Kit springs + Bilstein B8 struts mix = Bilstein B12 setup.
Which is something designed-manufactured to work properly for our cars.
As for the sense, imagine in my home town and generally Greece, roads are in very bad condition.
Even with roads like this, you get a firm-sporty ride, that is acceptable in most cases.
When the road is as supposed to be, you enjoy responsiveness, less body roll, firm grip, direct driving.
I totally suggest this combination for an updated AMGish feeling.
Lower - comfort - firm .
Much better than a cheap entry level coilover setup.

Small suggestions to those who want to show off more of the Car's front looks:
- Drop the plate bracket down and mount with 2 screws in existing holes (sufficient).
- Fill & Paint 2 vacated upper holes.
- Black vinyl wrap top & bottom edges of license plate.
- Cover with smoked plate cover.
