Thank You! The 20's didn't effect the ride as much as the springs did. It is def a much firmer ride than stock.

After looking at the pics again, I think I'd black out the chromes on the side panels too. If you can black out, just the fins on the diffuser, it would be great too I think! I really love your black out mods

Nice contrast! What option did you use to lower it? Or did those wheels fill the gap pretty good?

Thanks. The car was lowered with Vogtland lowering springs.

Wow. Very elegant. The car is understated and sleek looking. I think I like the grill and star blacked out. I have a white 400 as well with black wheels and I installed the illuminated star which would show the star at night only.
I have never heard of the chrome wrap here in Canada but will ask around.

I always loved how white cars with black accents look, simply amazing. I usually don' like the front grill all black out but on your C400, it works really well. Great looking clean car!

The rear color matched chrome looks really good. Much better than chrome, or black. Great job

Looks great! You beat me to it! Car looks great and the rear trunk piece being color matched was a great idea! I struggled to come up with a way to get rid of the chrome on the trunk on mine
And I didn't want to wrap it black like the trim. Great looking car!

I see that you tried sticking with the chrome on the trunk, then the black out chrome, and now the color matched chrome.

My vote is for the sticking with the new color matched rear. I love it!

Unreal job! Way to keep it clean. By far one of the best looking W205's on the road. Looks way better than the new stock C63 pics. Can't say I'm a fan of the Edition 1 nonsense.

Looks good! I did the same thing. I powercoated my AMG 19" and also got the MB spoiler and painted it gloss black to match the roof.
