I like the shot of the /////AMG emblem.... Is it rainy in canada???? I thought Oregon was the only place to get rain in the summer

P.S you really need to upgrade to some HID head lights, IMO the halogens are overshadowed by the HID fogs.

Actually, those are factory HID headlights. The bulbs are just a substantially different output than the fogs!

I know that some C43s in the US had halogens, but I have an inkling that all Canadian cars were HID.

I was thinking they might be HID after I posted the thread..... You NEED to match up the temperature, will make it look a whole lot better IMO but to each his own

6000K bulbs on the 'to get' list! But first, I think I'm going to install the Vogtlands, alignment, perhaps a new headlight lens, some other suspension pieces too.

I know how the "to get" list is..... Mine is a mile long and it include a NEW paint job..... but you know all about that . I am SOOOOO jealous as I will not be able to install the vogtlands for a couple months. Please post pics as soon as you install the suspension.....
