You will unless you upgrade your shocks. Even then, ride quality might be crap. ulovemybenzo knows about it. You should PM him about it. I'm thinking about getting shorter springs for my coils, if I can find any, to see if I can go moar low.

u already know waassssup lol thanks fellas..
for those who are tryin to slam out their ride... heres some advice and tips
MY SETUP WAS 2 COILS CUT FRONT AND REAR 1/2, BUMPSTOPS CUT AND ON STOCK SHOCKS. IF YOU CAN AFFORD HYDROLICS THIS IS THE BEST THING TO DO TRUST! I DONT LIKE BAGS BECAUSE THEY HAVE MANY PROBLEMS AND THE ARE FOR BUTTER FACES AND 40'S =)
*remember your cutting coils of course your ride quality will get bad, the more coils you cut the more bouncy your ride will be.
*you can always upgrade to billstein shocks, do not get the "hd" these are like oem you need to get the "sports"
*you can also get koni adjustable yellows which are supposed to top of the line, and if you take them to one of their official wherehouses they can rebuild the shock for you
(shortening), if you plan to slam it to the ground
*you can also cut the bumpstops (i cut mine in half) bumpstops are located in the under the plastic on your shocks (pic is from my w210) on the 204 u can cut these without taking the shock off the car simply just dig under the plastic sleeve on your shock
*you can take out your spring pads
*everyone says to go 19's but you actually run more slammed with 18's and it will look fine... (wont look like the wheels are too small) and your ride will sit lower than 19's you can also poke (adding spacers) and stretch (smaller tires) more and you dont have to worry about pullin fenders as much
*your wheels will have camber when you lower so if you dont plan on getting camber arms
remember to flip your tires
*you are most likely to destroy your cats and pipes scraping on driveways, uneven roads, sewer lids, so be prepared...
*you will **** off alot of people when u need to stop traffic to go over a dip in the road or make everyone wait because u have to bust a b$#ch cuz you cant go over the speedbump.... lol
*learn how to DIY most mechanic shops hate slammed cars cuz they hate goin thru hell just to put em on a lift... and most likely mess your ride up and blame it on you cuz your car is too low...
i think thats about it... good luck!

Clean...yes
One of the "Sikest"...not so much. Sorry man but you don't have that much going on in terms of mods to fall under the "sikest" category. You basically have a stock C class with AMG-style wheels, blacked-out grill and tints. As others have said take a look at AZN's to get an idea of what others have done
