Went and bought myself a new car recently to finally get somewhat into the car scene. (so excited) I came across a 2010 C300 about two months back and knew i had to own one. Don’t hate on the automatic, we all love benz here right? This week i added multiple pieces of body work and changed up my exhaust.
day of buying the car more pictures
went and bought some new rims for it, got them for cheap so they aren’t perfect but i love em
my old car in the back (love you volvo)
And finally managed to get a lip spoiler added to the rear, fiberglass/carbon diffuser, carbon splitter and a towhook
diffuser looks mean
i don’t have any pictures with the towhook haha, i’m adding quad exhaust tips tmrw to fill in the diffuser. Today i cut out the 2nd cats (not cats) and the resonator and replaced the cats with straight pipe and the resonator with an x pipe, sounds super mean will link a video if i can
Congrats on the buy i did the same exact setup on the exhaust but added magnflow mufflers and it sounds mean. Changing up the grill to the single fin adds looks and aggresivness to it too

95% are automatics and they only made manuals in 08/09 I think. The 7 speed auto is a great trans.
Looks good but if you eventually want to take your car up another level, changing the wheels to a staggered aggresive setup will make your car stand out more.
I was just at a tire shop yesterday for new wheels for our Jeep so I backed my car in, next thing I knew there were 5 mechanics bunched up staring at my car 😂.
Was actually thinking of doing the staggered wheel setup next... Not sure how much it would cost and exactly how I would go about it just yet but I think I might look into it more. I've seen a few builds with that setup and added rear bolt-on fender arches and I kinda dig that look. Also was interested in some cold air intakes but from what I read, they dont seem to have a purpose besides looking cool and providing a bit of a sound change.
You're probably only going to do it once, so do it right. There are some elaborate builds on instagram but they they have some lame wheels or something that basically ruins it
Yeah, you can definitely take it over the top too quickly with these cars. I love to have more of a stock but aggressive look, but also hate people who try to pose as AMG owners. Im going to enjoy the car as is for now considering the money i've already put in haha. Plus its already pretty awesome how it is... maybe just black out the grille besides the chrome trim pieces and emblem
I like the metallic gray your car is. Mine’s gloss black, but currently getting wrapped and applying all the mods in my signature — hope it’s ready today or tomorrow!
I concur with the hate of AMG posers. There’s some things like: wheels & exhaust tips that might be amg branded. But don’t go plastering AMG everywhere, put an AMG body kit on it and badging.
went and got the quad tips mounted today, gave it a slightly deeper tone but nothing substantial which i expected. Looks amazing tho also got some pics w the towhook
