Looks good! However if my car looked like that, I would:

Add a trunk and roof spoiler
And black out the headlights.
When I say blacked out headlights I am talking about ones that are black inside and not the the lenses smoked. That looks cheap otherwise. Such as these that I am selling:

https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...eadlights.html

Also, possibly a front lip.
Ride height looks pretty good, unless you want coilovers for the performance aspect of it.

ickdeep 12-20-2014 07:47 PM

That is hands down one of the best w204 ever

Thanks! I was thinking about adding a CF trunk lip, and a front lip might go looking do some window shopping on ebay lol

Yah new headlights would be nice as well, but I probs wont do that till I have some extra cash laying around


That is hands down one of the best w204 ever
Thanks a lot!! I feel like it looks better in person than the photos, but it made me smile reading that!

frak that helicopter is awesome.......and your car is slick too :)

rookiezxc 12-20-2014 08:27 PM

If I were you, I'd put a red stripe on the outside circle of the rims, something like this

Last is, CF spoiler :)

I actually disagree with this if the intention is to keep a very clean look. I would definitely go for those "blacked out" headlights that w204_Generic is talking about though, it'd definitely fit in with the theme

Well, I guess you're right if the goal was to get a cleaner look :bow:

Other thing you could do, maybe this? Smoked version of LED Bar tail lights :y

https://www.uniquestyleracings.com/i...product_id=655

Oh yeah, and the lights on your mirror, it should be smoked too!

IgorDj 12-21-2014 04:36 PM

I was thinking about the red pinstripe but Im not sure how flashy that would get.
Yea I'd defs wanna convert to the facelift tail-lights.

Are the side mirrors easy to change?
I really dislike the stock 08 ones

**Add a new picture with a better view for the brakes**

mr.brightside 12-21-2014 09:58 PM

beautiful car and pictures! can you link us to where you got that gloss black grille? thanks!

credit goes to Matt-erhorn. Might wanna give him a private message and ask about your mirrors :)

IgorDj 12-22-2014 04:51 PM

Thanks rookie I will !

@mr.brightside

The grill I got off ebay (if you are talking about the M-star one)

http://www.ebay.com/itm/08-13-BENZ-W204-C200-C250-C300-C350-New-C63-Style-Big-Mesh-Shiny-Black-Grille-/151518907298?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item23473b0ba2&vxp=mtr
thats exact one I bought (but not from that dealer)

C3504M 12-22-2014 05:46 PM

I still want your wheels by the way..

Where did you get the wrap done and how much was it? I want to get mine done in white, it's currently black, but I love the white look. I'm in Edmonton.

Did you paint the calipers or get new ones? If new, how much and where did you get them?

dbldpr 12-22-2014 06:26 PM

looks great you did a great job on the car. enjoy it now

I'll PM you

ChitownBabyBenz 12-28-2014 06:22 PM

I like it a lot. 3 things I'd do different - black out trunk logo, tint the headlights and taillights. Just smoke - nothig crazy so you can still see them.

I congartulate you on completion and admire your patience with the wrap...

IgorDj 01-13-2015 01:12 AM

Thanks a lot!

Yea I definitely want to tint the lights!

dudeitsmattx 01-13-2015 09:28 AM

Looks good! I would throw a little more CF parts on to go with the rear diffuser. CF trunk spoiler, CF front lip and maybe CF side mirror covers. CF roof spoiler would be nice also if you're into that

Skyline45 01-13-2015 02:58 PM

Looks good man. Awesome job! Love the red Mercedes emblem on the rear. If it were me, I'd reflect this color for the emblem on the grille. ^.^

HSCDUDE 01-13-2015 03:15 PM

I'm usually not big on a matte finish, but on your car, it looks amazing. Again, looks good, so don't do anything crazy. The simple clean look does your vehicle wonders. Too many mods on some cars usually make it look like the owner is trying too hard.

oliver@velosdesignwerks.com 01-13-2015 03:15 PM

Very clean looking w204 and I like the helicopter also.

Haven't been on the forums in awhile. PM's work better for me since I get them to my email
But they were actually pretty good. Not the fastest response but in the end I got everything working.

Quality of the brakes are good. Probably should of got a bigger sized rotor but oh well. High speed stops are better than stock

FFM 06-04-2015 02:33 PM

What's the damage on that BBK?

I'm still assuming doing the C63 conversion is cheaper and likely the route I will take. But open for other options.

FFM 06-04-2015 03:50 PM

I did find these based off an old thread that RB commented in. Found it under C350, but assume it would be compatible with the C300. Shouldn't be any differences I would imagine.
