Few quick shots of my car today
I haven't posted shots of my car since my first post. Was at the decal shop and decided to take a few shots while I was waiting. I'm no photographer and just had my old sony in the car so pics aren't perfect. Enjoy

Yeah after I looked at the pics of my car I was thinking the same thing. I thought I would have to swap out my factory HID's to make it work. I need to look in to brakes also those wheels make them look so small.

looks sick.
i think there needs to be some contrast somewhere. either keep the chrome badges in the rear, or the clear projectors.
for the projectors, i think most of the guys have just been using a d2r to h7 connection for the projectors. unless you retrofit something new into it, i think this is the only way.
keep up the good work, during the spring, we should meet up somewhere in va for a photoshoot. two blacked out clk's.

I went with the H&R Sport springs and Bilstein sports shocks with #1 pad in front and #3 in rear I'm o.k. with the front may want the rear to come down some more so I'm not going to mess with the car again till after the start of next year so it will have to wait till then.
Thanks again everybody

For the factory HID's, you'll need to find a way to mount the ballasts, get an H7 or H1 to D2S/D2R adapter for the bulbs, and find a way to run the thick plug inside the headlight housing. Not too big a deal. I just went w/ aftermarket. Far easier! There are quite of few threads on this...here and on benzworld.
