Lower it! H&R Super Sports or some affordable coilovers are the H&R Street Performance... which you can find on tirerack.com for about $1300~

Typical starter mods are black slats on grille, tint, lower, wheels, spoiler, lighting, lip, diffuser, quad exhaust, side window trim wrap, etc etc. Take a look through all the picture threads for inspiration and make it your own to your own sense of aesthetic.

Lower it, you don't need wheels you have good rims, but maybe you could powder coat em black. Tint the windows, lip, spoiler, diffuser, quad exhaust, those are basically all the small easy mods, maybe an AMG or one fin grill too if you want it. X-pipe, magnaflow muffler.

List out the options you got with your car and we'll go from there. If you bought the sport + model you might not need to lower it.

Also I see you listed your car as a C200 AMG, there could be a chip out there to make it a bit faster. That was the first thing I bought :P
