Just got my wheels on finally!
Just had my wheels put on as well as H&R Coilovers. I think it came out superb 
Also had my fenders rolled so if I wanted I could lower it more and tuck it behind the fenders.
I told them to leave a 1 finger gap and I think its at its best height.
I asked for a quote on smoking out the side mirrors (the top triangle portion) and when I came back to pick up the car they did it for me for free. Sorry don't have a picture of it but I'll get some up.
Next is painting the grill and smoking out the tail lights.
Sorry for the crappy picture..I'll get more after a nice wash and a better cam.
Another note: H&R Coilovers are perfect. I have no clue why but the car feels sooooo much smoother then stock. I would recommend H&R Coilovers to any w204 owner

Nice!
Which rims are those? Size?
I'd like to see what those side views look like with the top part tinted. That was pretty slick of them to hook you up with that!

Thanks
The Wheels are from Mandrus (mandruswheels.com)
They are the Millenium series
Size is 19" 8.5 Front 43mm offset and rear 19" 9.5 53mm offset
Yea I took a quick picture just before pulling into my Garage. I should have the car washed and having a friend do a shoot of the car sometime next week.
The side mirror tinting was great..All I did was drop the car off in the morning and ask for a quote and when I came to pick it up they tinted it for me free.
Its pure black tint so you can't seen any of the clear for the top portion but the turn signal is still clear.
I'll get a quick shot sometime over the weekend.

Thanks everyone for the comments.
Tire size is: Front 235/35/19 and Rears 255/30/19
Was worried about rode noise but I must say I can't tell the difference between stock and H&R coilovers. I might even say it feels smoother then stock suspension =X
Yea I'm in SF haha The Aves are so easily recognized lol
I'll get more shots this week after a nice wash!
Thanks everyone!

Some more shots of the car. The last picture you can see the side mirror tint on the clear triangular piece.
Considering going a little lower. I have about a 1 finger gap but may lower it a bit more to leave no gap at all.

Windows are tinted 35% lol
but sun shines right through it.
Tail light tinting this weekend. (Spraying)
Considering changing to a darker tint.
15%? 10%? i think 5% and i'd be getting pulled over everyday.
