Beautiful cars, that 1/18th scale has great detail.

You should put up a sound clip of that intake. I'd love to hear how the car sounds with a GruppeM

That carbon air intake is NOT from GruppeM, I got it for $350 from Taiwan when I was visiting there a few weeks ago. Its for C200 originally, but I thought I will give it a try on my C36. I can feel a bit more power after 4.5k rpm. But thats just my butt dyno !

22 X3, 21 330e, 97 M3, 97 C36 (sold), but on the hunt for a clean, low-mile C43!
Your DD C36 looks clean..are those 18" Monos? Also, I see you painted your door handles. Did you remove the chrome trim from your door/bumper side moldings?

Good eyes sir ! The rear is 18" Monos from E55( it fits very nice), but the front is still 17" Monos that stock in a C36, if I want to use E55 front wheel,
I will need to pull out the front fender by 1.00-1.25 inch !

Sorry for the picture's quality, I install a chrome cover for the door handles and the chrome trim still on my door and bumper, just can't see from the pictures !

If you run a 18x8" front wheel with a 225/40/18 tire, you won't have to do any work on your fenders aside from maybe rolling the inner lips a bit more (than what AMG did)
