Where are you planning on buying those? I had looked a while back and the guy who was making them on these boards has gone quiet.

He has not signed onto MBworld in over 6 months nor did he respond to a single one of the e-mails I sent to him (at his Yahoo e-mail account) or to any PM I sent to him. My guess is he sold the C55 and is no longer making interested in getting the the item. Maybe someone on here knows how to contact him.

They don't exist for the 55, the impact strips are part of the front bumper. You have to buy painted reflectors or paint the OEM ones. I recommend the latter.

yeah the sidemarkers are cheap, about $25 for the clear lenses that come with amber bulbs, then you can buy a pair of PIAA Xtreme White(if you want to match your headlights and stuff) for like $13

coil overs will make that car handle nicely

Yea I may just get mine painted. Im also considering either getting my grill painted or replaced to a flat black.

Yea the coilovers will help out a lot. I plan to take it racing in September.
