Hey nice work! Quick question...... was the new 2012 facelift rear bumper easy to install....do you know? or were there mods done to fit it on?
I ask b/c i got into an accident as well and if i have to get a rear bumper anyways i rather get the new one like you did.

Depending on how the replica AMG looks like with a lip, I might pull the plug and get one later. Replica looks great but I can still tell the proportion is off. Still looks great though Norman. Looking forward to see the updates.

On your stock front bumper you had chrome trim around the fog housings and loweringh front bumper oval area. How did you do that?

Did you add the chrome surrounds to the foglight and front lower grilles? I noticed you kept them quite a while through the process. Were they aftermarket or a MB accessory in the US?

IMO your car looks great! And don't worry about what others think, with all that time and money spent on your car, what you think should matter most, brush off the negatives.

Relax man - back in post 87 I said I love your exhaust tips and your wheels ! I am not raggin on your car at all, just looking at the pics and feel the aftermarket bumper looks higher off the ground than stock - designed that way I guess...and I have no opionion one way or the other on lowering cars, I didnt even mention the backwards shifter knob ;-)
Nice car modded to your personal taste - well done...

Lol why are people taking things way out of content?
I agree he may have taken it the wrong way. You guys are also reading it wrong. He didn't mean you guys are bashing him for his mods but for all the comments that was given, it was only for how high his car was compared to the other. No love for the new updated bumper, etc. And never did I see him mention ANYTHING about leaving "positive" comments only so what is this thing about blowing up his ego?
To each his own. His mods, his tastes. Question it all you want, not going to change anything. Do I like the wheels? No but this is not my place to tell him to it take off. I don't like his old wheels either.
EVERYBODY has different taste so there's no reason why you should question his. I mean I could say that about everyone liking the new c-class facelift because I think they look horrible. Preface lift W204 > face lifted W204 to me
I am not fond of the LED DRL either nor the spyder headlights Mike is setting up. Looks like trashy eBay stuff but hey, that's MY opinion so don't take it that personal. You might not like my stanced car but that is how it is. Don't see why its necessary to add snotty remarks to it. Yes I know its an opinion but cmon... "There is a fine line between being blunt and just being an *******."
Like your car for instant. Your car? Don't like it. Your wheels? Nope. You like it? Great and I move on from there. No harm no foul. Sometimes things should be left unsaid. Don't be like the guys over at the BMW forums where they bicker most of the time. Useless and waste of time.
In the end, "no matter what you do, make sure you do it for you."
PS: My offsets are +40F +32R and yes it's totally wrong. Have a good night.

I was at the new shop at JL motoring we were taking pics of the diffuser so while that was getting done i got to see the CF c63 hood that is made for c300/c350 just wow... its some nice light weight hood and also wanted to see if the c63 lips will work on the aftermarket bumper and no it did not, Way off tried 3 different lips none worked. Here is a pic i took if anyone is interested to see how the c63 lips will look like on aftermarket bumpers. Also another good news my CF lip will be coming in this friday so i should have it installed and ready for mercedes march madness. Cheers
