Favorite Mods / MOD Recommendations

Hey Guys,

What are some of your favorite mods for your 205?

I have a 2015 C300. I have had it for a bit but have kept it stock minus some dark tint. I almost made the leap to an E400 this past weekend but the car I checked out just wasn't as nice or smooth as my C. Probably something wrong with that ride.

Anyways, I started looking at what I could do to make my C300 look more aggressive, ride a little better, be a little faster, and things like that.

I like carbon fiber lips but don't know which ones would be recommended
I like debadging....something I could probably do myself
If I keep the car it will eventually get wheels
I have read about chips to increase performance but I have also read that one of them is beta only now. What are your thoughts and recommendations here?

Thanks guys!

hey plaric-

I purchased a CPO C300 2016 about 2 months ago. Did a few things to my car nothing performance related yet. I did swap out my stock grille to the diamond pattern that you see on some of the newer models. That really changed the look of the car and so happy that I did. I also debadged and upgraded the tail lights (depo) to Led as my car came with the stock lights. (not sure if you have that problem) I'm in the process of researching replacing the halogen headlights - Some folks on here have used a company called Otto Auto for the headlights. Swapped out the old blue emblems on the rims and hood to the black ones -gives the car an updated look which was relatively inexpensive. I also vinyl wrapped my window trims and mirrors to give the car the night package look - it looks great. highly recommend. hmm, I think that's it for now. Hope that helps you out.

Thanks a lot. I got the emblem but the center caps won't fit my aftermarket 19 inch wheels and I already have the upgraded tail lights.
