C300 4M Sport
New car, need opinions

First post - Traded in my Range Rover Sport for something more economical a few months back. Ended up with 2011 steel grey c300 4m sport. Was enjoying car, unfortunately got t-boned a few nights ago ($16-17K damage). Car in shop, going to be repaired per insurance company, having authorized benz shop do the work. I figure why not have some mods done at this point. Looking for suggestions of aftermarket parts or tips on cosmetics which may personalize a bit. I do drive this as a commuter and sometimes have to take others out in a professional manner - so no slammed suspension or 20in wheels. Looking for subtle but effective mods. Open to suggestions, thx

ps- the car did well in the crash as far as protecting the cockpit. have lurked into some posts questioning effectiveness of this model in crash - no complaints here
