C300 Sport
Lighting package means the frog lens (projectors) I was talking about earlier, right? Mine came with it. I guess that's why, since mine is a 2008.

2015 C250 Coupe
When you put the door pins in did you glue them or anything? I have some laying around and want to install them but want to have the ability to put the old ones back upon returning the lease. Do you think the originals would be easy to reinstall?

on another note, mods coming....new OEM black painted grille (tired of plastidip) and possible CF diffuser. I'm still debating on the diffuser cuz i heard CF turns yellow after a while so I don't know if i want to drop $300 for something that's not gonna last lol

I was planning on doing quad tips on my c300 before I sold it, and I had the $143 ebay diffuser, but never had the time for quad tips. It looked pretty clean, but I can't speak for durability. I bet there's someone else here who's had it for a long time though!

whats wrong with the plastidip color is it like matte ?
did your X-pipe just add sound but heard those take away some HP
I' just got mine and i'm thinking the first thing to do is sell these factory wheels (Grand Touring All Season don't work in our area, prob get Conti's DWS) not sure if to keep the stock rims & powder coat them or get some 17" AMG or 18" debating. Then def do the same grille paint u did looks so much better to match the black but i dont like it fully blacked out urs look great. Just got its first hand wash paid like $40 but they cleaned it well and didn't rush (took about 45mins-1hr). This made me realize how PITA is black cars when parking outside
i feel like wrapping it in Satin Gray or even White.

time to mod again! just bought an OEM C350 coupe 2 fin grille and CF rear diffuser. I will try to install them as soon as get them. Can't wait 
btw, thinking about new wheels for this summer from Power Wheels Pro. I will be getting new tires by then so I might as well get new rims!

update!
So i finally got around to install the c250 coupe 2 fin grille and smoked led side markers. I'm actually really liking the sidemarkers at night! They just look awesome. I was a little afraid about the looks during the day but as you can see in the pics, it looks decent actually. Here's some pics.
Coming up new dual exhaust diffuser and roof spoiler.

looks really good man
I'm thinking of getting the C63 style bumper possibly and adding those sidemarkers you have as well, the grill looks awesome also looking into something similar how much did it cost? most ppl have gotten the SL style one.
btw your headlights is your next upgrade?

I'm actually happy with my headlights. I got 6k HIDs and they look pretty awesome at night. It's just not worth spending 1k on new headlights imo.
