My 2012 C300 Sport

This is my 2012 C300 sport with 97,000 miles, lightly modded. Free flow dual air filters

Blacked out mesh grill, with all black MB hood badge

De-badged and small spoiler

Thornton chip with peddle commander. Also has black mirror covers. Looking to do a light tint and shopping for gloss black wheels. I am open to suggestions.

Nice car. I Have the same grille and spoiler.
I wouldn't go with these air filters if my life depended on it. They don't filter as well as the OEM filters while not giving enough extra power. I don't like the tradeoff and I stay away from them. Just my 2 cents.
Enjoy your car.

when I investigated, I saw that they would not filter as well. However, there was no data that it was actually harmful and they do allow more air flow. Thanks for the reply. Any pictures of your car? I just added the peddle commander and the results are amazing. The car is so much quicker without the peddle lag.

Filters Gotta Go, they only sucking in HOT Air From the the Engine Bay, there's a reason the car originally came with RAM cold air intake.......
