Still have more I want to do but bills and adulthood gets in the way sometimes. Damn responsibilities. Lol.

Way more knowledge here than any stealership.

Nice looking C-Class buddy!
When you find out how to get the headlight housing black let me know would ya? Hahaha!
Did you have to do anything special with the rears or do the 20x10's fit? What the offset on those sexy rims of yours?

I pulled the fenders but still get a little rub with weight in the back on turns and big bumps. I need to change the rear rubber if I want to eliminate that. Just didnt want to spend $800 on two tires, so I cheaped out. Not 100% sure on the offsets. I'll have to check. But it's flush with the fenders.

I want to so bad but I either have to get smaller rims or change the rears. This is the first car I've owned and haven't lowered. I'm Itching for it bad. My old GTI couldn't fit a coffee cup laying on its side under it. It literally would eat pavement. Lol!!

If I stretched some toyos on the rear like the fronts I could put springs in. But I was to cheap to spend $800plus tax on two tires. We get fisted in Canada for everything. Lol

Dude, I thin it looks great... but.... the license plate. That just does not look right. No symmetry... I actually purchased a european plate, customized with my state plate numbers.... so far so good... been a few months, and nobody has stopped me... it is reflective too...

yellow fogs
looks like those cheap tuning VW golf cars... put LED lights in it!
the trunk spoiler is too large too imo. you should have put the AMG spoiler.
now its like your car had a mini dick in erection
i like all the rest you did

Lol wow. You just made me shed a single tear. Well lets put it this way technically fog lights are suppose to be yellow. But please feel free to argue. And as for the spoiler well personal preference. Turns me on more. Gets me all excited. To each their own.

yea don't worry i'm not trying to offend you just giving my opinion.
why should fog leds be supposed to be yellow btw?
front fog lights are ment to help you get a better view and not to make you more noticeable

there is a forum member on here who opens up the headlights and paints them any color you want from the inside. seals them up like they were from factory! i got mine done by him and a great price, he is located in los angeles, ca so you would have to ship him your headlights.

White is going to reflect a lot more than yellow off of the fog. Which means better vision. That's why you don't use high beams in fog.

Ya I am. I got my flash done by Eurocharged. I would totally recommend it. Makes a big difference and is affordable. There is a US location and a guy in Toronto who will come to you to do it. Being that your in vancity makes it a little more difficult though. Lol. However he does make trips to major city's across Canada threw out the year. They also have a remote tune option but it really depends on the car if its supported or not.

Ya I will do that thanks. I assume this voids warranty so I may have to wait until next April. Did you notice a big increase with the 10% increase?
