Thanks

congratz on the purchase and welcome to the forum.

visible bra are never great looking, but it works if you go on a long distance trip. Look for clear bra applications if you are looking to protect the paint. They are quite expensive however.

jtc55/john just mentioned some of the basic and great mods. Another thing you could do without spending a lot of money would be delete the resonator for the exhaust. It'll free up the exhaust flow a little better and produce a deeper rumble.

feel free to email or PM regarding any thing you might want.

Make sure to use the "Search" feature judiciously - there is a wealth of info available on your car here, and many people here have already encountered and solved the most common issues (cosmetic/performance/handling/mechanical/etc) with the W203 chassis. Enjoy!

welcome aboard.. one of the site sponsors does mobile clear bra installs..

If you go this route I recommend doing your whole hood, it will look better than having a line down the middle of your hood.. pricy though..
