Finally, some photos
Guys:
Modifications include: Brabus springs, Brabus shocks, Eisenmann exhaust, 18" double-spoke AMG wheels w/ Michelin PS2 tires and custom-made front grill.
I'm installing yellow or red Brembos in a few days and i'm powder-coating my wheels to a darker titanium, just like the new CL65 AMG.
Regards,
Joe

the exhaust does not need any modifications to the bumper. It sits around half an inch or so under the bumper. I have had no problems with the bumper melting or anything

hey great job on the ride! 
I was looking into those same rims myself but plenty $$
I wish i gotten the wood steering wheel, makes the interior so much classier.
I have yet to see a modded 209 around here.

Thanks guys. The shocks and springs were about $1450 (installed). The ride is perfect now. My wife doesn't know about it and she hasn't even noticed. He, he...I won't tell her. She'll start *****ing about the $$$ and tell me that i should have bought her a bracelet or something.
Let me know if you have further questions.
