What do you guys think of the stance? Originally thought about upgrading to H&R coils but this looks fine to me and the ride quality I couldn't ask for anything better haha. Plus going any lower would kinda prevent me from being able to put the CF lip on with these horrible NorthEast roads. As far as offsets go, thinking +20 all around should be pretty flush?
Man, it sits just perfect!! I want stance like that so bad...
It's just OEM H&R springs? Are them not cutted half o coil o something? I saw pics of C55s on H&R springs and them a bit higher in the front..
P.S. Could you please find a part number for your H&R springs? It should be 29392-1 or something like that. I guess there are couple of types of H&R springs, softer springs cause more drop, I need to find out which ones give more drop

I'm on the 29392-1 H&R springs yes you are correct, I'm also running Bilstein B8 shocks/struts as well. The ride quality has improved tremendously since adding the Bilsteins...she EATS bumps in the road now haha
Picked up some nice 3 piece wheels today with Continental Extreme Contact 235/35/19 tires for a steal!!! Since they need some work I'm going to make a project out of them when I get them refinished. They're 19x8.5 all around with +32 offsets (pretty nice lips for 19x8.5)...the project for these is to go 19x10 in the rear and powder coat the centers gloss black with blood copper lips and gold rivets. Thinking a 4" lip for the rear, what do you guys think? Also can I retrofit my oem impact strips with the parktronic strips?
Picked up 550cc injectors from a forum member and they should arrive Friday. Dropping the car off in PA to a friend who's a benz tech and he's going to do my stage 1 install plus the carbon fiber front lip and also fabricating a custom intake while I'm away in Atlanta for a few weeks. Having my trunk insert painted as well should have that installed by next weekend.
Had a free weekend so wanted to handle this missing ballast problem before I head to Philly.
All that's left of the original fender lining smh hate Cornell's brick roads lol I had to have nicked the edge of a broken brick to do this kind of damage.
Just as I was uploading the pics I heard the USPS van pull up haha. Ordered a new europlate after the first was damaged being backed into. This time chose the reflective yellow for extra visibility.
Engine and tranny mounts arrived too so we're all set for the headers to be installed.
A few pics before the drop off in Philly. Can't wait until Sunday lol. Wheels still aren't finished yet UGHHHHH! They're hoping to have the lips in before the end of the week but who knows man it's already been over two weeks.
Waiting on eurocharged to send my file back...should be by end of the day or tomorrow. Unfortunately threw some injector codes while cruising back home smh hoping the damage isn't too bad and can be fixed when I do the flange adjustment for the headers
Spotted a piece of the grill went missing the day I picked her up in Philly smh. The tech has been looking everywhere but I'm just gonna assume it's gone forever lol if anyone wants this to try and get a spare piece you can have it, just shoot me an offer.
Finally found out what's holding up my wheels...they're waiting on the 4.5" lips for the rear and they're on a 2 week back order (after a whole freaking month smh). Should I just go with 5" rears and have 19x8.5/19x10.5 or is that too much camber? lol
