Car looks awesome. Not a big fan of the wheels though but nice work nonetheless.

Do you have any problems w/scraping and trouble with clearing drive ways etc with this setup? I was thinking about doing the same.

DMoney08 I just have to be extra careful in negotiating steep ramps, once you master the technique and go slow you'll be fine... My car can still ascend those low profile lift machine ramps that they use for wheel alignment and such but with less than 1/4 of an inch clearance before it hits my front lip spoiler... Minor scraping at the bottom is expected time to time

The wheels look like the Mandrus Millenium wheels. I think TSW and Mandrus is the same company?

thanks tehc300!

Yeah it looks like M. Milleniums except mine doesn't have 2 1/2 inch lip on the rear. Im not sure if Mandrus is also owned by Terence Sheckter, founder of TSW but they advertise them on their site. Mine is gloss black.

I just debadged mine an hour ago! LOL! Goo Gone came in handy to clean out the adhesive residue

You don't have to paint the door trim, you can just remove it

That's the easier and better way IMO. Same process as the debadging. Grab a small chair and floss away

Did this to my car just tonight! It's a night and day difference.
Here's my before and after shots in this thread: Door Moldings Removed

It'll definitely improve the looks, and you'll already have everything you need when you're debadging the C300 on the back
