I dont like to include this.. but 15% carbon tints
Suspension:
H&R VTF

Nope - it's an issue I dealt with recently and have since moved on to the facelift grille.
Check my post history for more details. It basically comes down to poor design on the aftermarket grille.

Damn... looks like I am going to contact the seller and demand a refund and grab the facelift OEM C63 grille if it every becomes available

Congratulations, you finally got your wheels! Car looks great! What size tires did you end up using?
My wheels arrived last week too, but I’m out of town. I’ll have it done by the end of the week when I get back.

Looks great! Can you post more pics or different angles of the front end and grill? Really debating getting this but installed pics are few and far between. What's your opinion on quality of the one you have?

Ended up going with 235/35 and 265/30.. didnt realize they run a bit large, should have gone 225/35 up front.. I am rubbing more than I would like on dips and some odd sloped driveways/drive thru's

I'll go ahead and do that for you this weekend! The grill fitment is an 8/10 but that could be because I didn't completely remove the bumper.. lol quality of finish is 10/10, material is 9/10.. its plastic but doesnt feel like its cheap/thin.. the only thing bugging me is that it is messing with my 360 camera, but if you dont have one, then there is nothing really to complain about!

Need some advice guys... looking to paint my calipers and I need help choosing the color..
1) Red to match my red seat belts
2) Petronas F1 teal and matching belts
Also, does anyone know if it’s possible to retrofit a BBK from the W204 in the rear? Can’t stand the wimpy looking caliper we have out back.
