Before & After Lowering Pic of C32 Amg

This is the Before & After Lowering Pic of C32 Amg. It's hard to see because I didn't shine the tires, but the difference is big. My MPG improved, as did the handling and the looks. -1.5" in the back, -2.5" in the front.

Also pictured is how I shine my rims, a brillo, rag and water, a little rain does not hurt the cleaning process. Look at the difference between the rear and the front, this gunk will not come off at the car wash, my back tires dont fit there anyways and I don't want any towels touching the amg. I don't care if it's an 02 with over 100k miles, I still don't want anyone touching my car and yes I do park in the back of the mall parking lots.

Looks good. Get those pesky bicycles out of there, they will surely drift into your car at some point.

I am usually an all "stock" guy, just prefer the look, but your lowering looks great! Its not too much of drop, and really enhances the stance/sportiness look of the vehicle. Congrats. What are you doing out there in the rain in the second pic? Cleaning your rims?
