Since launch of W204 in my country, there is no option for the AMG bodykit.
WOW great transformation.....
Now you have to go for other exhaust, have you allready made a choice??
Go for the Brabus ones ;-)
You have a luxury (avantgarde/elegance) rear bumper??
You can buy the spoilers that i have over the exhaust... i havent seen anyone here in The Netherlands who have that on their W204.
I'm waiting for phase 2

I have not really made up my mind. I like the design and sound of the Brabus but i don't think it goes well with the AMG bumper? Any other ideas?
My rear bumper is also AMG. Just that i only have one tailpipe.
Phase 2 is definitely going to include the exhaust !

You can order another diffusor for the AMG bumper with holes left and right (for the 6 Cylinders)... so that isnt a problem. So you only change the matt black middle...
Or keep it as exhaust on one side, thought that carlsson have an exhaust for the C180/200K ....

I always prefer the sporty sound of the Brabus over the AMG.
Hmm.....let me put this into consideration for Phase II.

I admire how ur car look. It is very clean.
When my car was in the paint shop, i was still thinking if i should paint it white. Cos if well taken car of, White really stands out on the W204. But the rain here is crazy (it is raining EVERYDAY for the past 3 weeks), would be so tough to maintain it.

Initially i thought it was just screws. But the installer actually has to cut the bumper to fit the DRL kit. From the front it may look like a small piece of light but actually the whole light unit is about 3 to 4 inches thick. Therefore, if the new C class facelift DRL is out, anyone wishes replace their fogs with those will have to cut the bumper too.
Looks nice! One of the best set of mods I've seen yet.

In the begining i was thinking to replaced the grill with C63 style. But then, i thought, how it looks with the Elegance grill....Turns out not bad at all.

Interesting. Thanks for the heads up.
Anyone know how much a pair of the LEDs cost from MB? I'm curious how much of the $670 is for the OE parts. If anyone knows the part# could they please post it?
Thanks!

Yup thats the mod shop where i got my bodykit and DRL from. The price is $670 which is 5% off from the initial $700.
You can buy direct from them at Ebay but it is expiring in 1 day.
I had been asking them to do their website for online orders since there are quite a few inquiry about their product.
