new member with few questions

Hi,
I go my 2012 c350 coupe on saturday and just so you know how crazy my mods bug is I did x pipe, tinted windows and tinted taillights in the same day.

What I need is to buy front lip, rear diffuser and quad tips, no idea who sells them, vendors chime?
I also want to find out if I can install rear view camera (car has navi).
Ecu flash?
Spacers?
Illuminated sills?
Red seatbelts.
Suspension
Hood star conversion
At the same time I would greatly appreciate if someone can advise what oil I need, what transmission oil I need and how to check transmission level?

Thank you.
Few pics.

Welcome to the forums!

Hold your horses!

Front Lip, Diffuser, Quad tips = Ebay

ECU flash = eurocharged or OE tune

Spacers ebay

Illuminated sills, hood star, etc look here: https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...on-thread.html

Read the thread comments, its a few parts down. I'll add the illumnated star now too.

Interesting idea
I was thinking more about blaze green but matte white might work, I will give it a go.

How does one remove the trim on the side windows and door?
Here is one done in orange.

It is white.
Actually lacquer white.
This car is edition 1, only 50 made for canada.
It has matte finish from the factory and few other things.
I will take more interior pics one of these days.

RW carbon are good.

Kleemann also offers a tune.
They offer headers and camshaft upgrade for the W204 aswell.

Suspension: Flatout. All the way. Flatout Suspension are awesome, great customer service and a phenomenal product. The guy that developed the suspension owns a W204... Enough said.

Eurocharged and OE will probably be able to offer you discounts on tuning since we had recently started a tune group buy.

Tell them you are interested in W204 group buy pricing

Contact Information:

OE tuning: sales@oetuning.com

Eurocharged tuning: philip@eurocharged.com

I personally have the Eurocharged tune, but with your engine and ecu, you may need to visit a certified shop and they cannot remote tune or send you a handheld tuner.

Good luck and welcome!

For spacers I would use H & R or something else that is hubcentric.

That is good advice from CGC. If it's not hubcentric, don't bother.

Negligible performance wise. It's sound that it helps. Headers though are a BIG plus.
