I use adapters 5x112 to 5x130. My winter tires are 8x18 225/40 and 10x18 265/35 using same adapters. So I don't need to remove adapters.


@Kowalski

The interior pictures with blue colour are old... today it is carbon fibre. But I need to create the cf parts again after leather mod is finished.
The air nozzles are from Audi A3.

Sorry never removed B-Säule. Probably clipped only. I don't know if it is enough to configure with STAR diagnostic. Do you have connectors to plug the sensors?

here are my sensors I bought, the last picture is the complete wireloom and the alarmhorn which is the abschleppschutz.
without interior sensors.

Have you seen how many klaxo alarm horn you have on your car?
Can you check for me, open the hood and check if there is any, have you seen them if there is inside the fender?
I have only 1 horn seen below on last picture.

I wish I had no alarm-system... because sometimes the system aktivates the alarm but there is no reason for alarm.
What I know is that you can not simply remove the alarm system (maybe for also for insurance reason). There must be a seperate horn for alarm system, because it is different from standard horn.

I have the alarm system but only one horn

Looks like pavement rash to me

dat fleabay c43 had excessive scratchmarks below on bulging ends.
spoiler looks like being hit by a curb or something?

cars being low slammed gets creamed every time they hit a bad speedbump or a curb, meaning a perfect snow plow to clean the streets.

KJI3jflarryfe93

you have one horn, are you sure about that?
then I also have only one horn!
you see my picture with the trunk box relay, wireloom, switch and the horn?
this kit is only the towhook alarm without the interior motion sensors!
this kit is what I have on my car fitted from factory

DRBC43AMG

I have both the intrusion and tow alarms. Will try setting it off to compare horn sounds

I would love to have this option but it does not seem like a fun project...

It was pretty cold (-18*C) today, but clear - and I had the day off (but I did go into the office for an hour to tidy some stuff up!) I brought my camera with me, and in between my stops when I was running around during the day, I snapped a few pix here and there.

First few are from the office, the top shot from my office window. As I was leaving, I noticed the car's reflection in our conference room window, pretty neat.

The others are in front of one of the city's more interesting / old buildings. If Ob1kenobi (and former resident of Edmonton!) is reading this post, I wonder if he recognizes the location at all?

what does your lawyer colleagues say when you ride your gangsta Benz to work?
Lawyer by day, AMG rider by night
Car looks good now.
The salt thrown on the streets in Canada is it very high corrosive or is it mixed by other chemicals not to be so corrosive?
Do you see alot of rustbucket w210's in Canada?
Where I live, these w210 are common with brown cancer on the body!
These cars look very nasty when affected by rust!

Nice pictures Saaboteur.

Were those taken in the South Side? Whyte ave?

Saaboteur

Kowalski - dunno anything about the salt on our roads, so I googled. All I could find is that our city uses a 'salt and sand mixture', and the stockpile isn't that far from my house! I know that my car had some rust going on when I bought it. There was some bubbling on one door, and the front fenders were looking ratty too. I was a bit surprised - I think my older Saab and Volvo fared a bit better than the AMG in that regard.

It was funny though, the first day I drove the car to the office after I got it last year. The boss was joking that he had parked next to a Russian gangster...

Ob1 - yep, the latter photos were taken on Whyte Ave, right beside the old post office building (although that was before my time). I've ever only known that building to house a few restaurants and pubs, but the clock tower is a nice backdrop.

I say every C43 & C36 owner that is able to drive down to Sacramento, Cali, plan a date to do a meet! I vote for June 12th! That way everyone (including me) has time to finish projects/repairs and we'll have a bad *** shoot (I'm a photographer) and we should get some sort of a way to plan the trip, like breakfast at a famous spot (reserved parking) then drive around, etc etc.
If you are down, send me an e-mail with contact phone # and I will setup a list!
I think that would be killer! Especially that a lot of the C43 and C36 models here are somewhat differently modified!

ivan-are those authentic amg's? what size are those? looks bad a$$!

ivannesukh

Thanks brotha! They are replicas of the SL55 wheel, hence the convoy on the rear wheels .. they are 18", just perfect size for W202 in my opinion.

FrankW

austinholloman

If I am not living in MB buy then, I would be willing to make the drive from Dallas to hang out with my C43 brothers. So lets get this setup!


BTW You must post pictures of your car, I need to see more angels of those wheels and you bumper/fog setup!!!!!

ivannesukh

Nice! You gotta keep us posted on that progress!
I will have pictures of my car here shortly, I didn't get to start using this so often till the day before yesterday..

ivannesukh

So this is what happens when a biker crashing in front of you. Lame huh!
It will look better, I'm thinking of blacking out the grill, smoking out the tail lights and head lights, and smoking out the rear badges.. what do you guys think?

KJI3jflarryfe93
