So you recommend getting size small curtains from junction produce? I wanna drop as low as you but they don't make affordable coils for 4matics! Very good looking car though.

yeah i would reccomend getting size small forsure...however curtains look nice on the outside looking in but the way our w204 doors are setup its not a clean fit from the inside...so i just sold mine... so kinda in a way i dont recommend curtains at all haha.

Eurojdmbenzo. If I was to stay with the lug bolt wat size I mean the length to get? For the conversion stud is it better? I read where once in a while u have to double check them or maybe I'm wrong. Ur the one wit the conversion and know better. I'm so new to this Mercedes forum coming from g35 coupe. Saw ur page and I knew I wanted something like urs but not too crazy on the suspension cause where I'm at it's not worth it in mass.

Very nice ride. I got the idea of wrapping front bumper black in the middle section of the lip from yours (thanks!) Didn't work out so well for me though :\ I wrapped it with matte black on my steel grey metallic haha. Not much different and really hard to see the black section. I should have left it as is or pick a better color.
You wrapped yours with glossy black?

i wrapped mine in gloss black but i dont think wrapping it is a good idea cause the vinyl doesnt really hold on the edges......but if you plastidipped it that would be the best bet!

HELLO mbworld!!

so its been a while since ive refreshed my build thread....but im currently on air suspension and i got new wheels ^__^

i still have megan coilovers but im running UAS bags on my coilovers with custom plates
and accuair switchspeed air management

driving around super low static was kind of a hassle so now im happy to be able to have clearance on air suspension...

and my ccw's had alot of oxidation/scratches/curb/cracks on the inner barrel i fixed alot of it and i was pretty happy to sell it lol

picked up one of my favorite wheels ever!
a set of Leon Hardiritt Ordens
18x8.5+26
18x10+16

some pretty agressive specs on the w204

but here is the way she sits now
