So I gonna get my tax refund sometimes in the next two weeks

This is my plan with portion of the refund.

- Tint my car to 35%

- Remove my rubber oem pedals and put on the stainless steel pedals (the ones that don't require drilling) Went to the dealer and they told me they can get me the pedals for the brake and e-brake only, not the accelerator.


- Get the CF lip.

- Here is the question for you. Should I buy the amg tips from Pat (if it's still available) or should I pick up a Supersprint muffler which has the dual oval tips which is the look I want? I'm not a huge performance guy, I care mostly on looks .

what you guys think?
OH, i need to wash it, that's actually #1 on my list. lol

Tint - lets do that .

CF lip - gotta have it

Pedals - why dont you get something like this ,

Muffler - do you plan to do like a quad or just dual tips ?

How much do you plan to spend here ? Its all come down to the $$$...you know that lol.

I'm just going to stick with the dual tips. I hate my single tip muffler right now. I think Pat is selling his for 275 obo shipped and I saw a listing on ebay for a CLK55 supersprint muffler for $500 (compare to like $1300), emailed him and he said he may have the muffler for our cars soon. 275 vs 500. Not a huge difference there but still 200 bucks. haha.

I don't like those pedals require drilling, I rather have the OEM ones, which we can get. Basically the rubber one comes off like a shoe and the steel one goes back on.

I got the info from this thread with the part #s.

Oh and, I searched bunch of places for the skinny sat radio antenna, no luck dude. Hope you can find it soon.

I would do 35% tint. i wish i did mine sooner.

not too sure about that CF tho, not a big CF fan on my part.

pedals - sure why not.

i would go for quad if you dont mind having your bumper cut, its going to give you the more aggressive look. thats whats 3rd on my list.

right now im working on getting spacers to get a wider looking stance.

good luck with the modding!

If you not going to do like a quad then go for superprint muffler..honestly I have never heard the sound of that muffler b4 but if it was originally sells it for $1300 then it must be good lol. For the pedals, I probably get that one for myself (the drilling one) I have done that once to my 320 so it will be easy this time. You are missing 1 mod...the roof spoiler .

I almost forgot the big a*s radio Antenna already.. why are you reminding me lol I f***ing hate that antenna .

ok lets the mod begins and good luck .

I would get the tints first, then CF spoilers to match the tint.

If you only want the dual look, spend a little more and get the Supersprint muffler.

Good luck

i would say touch screen and rims. haha thats what i did. love it with the new sub ^.^

Raining day. Can't take pictures outside.
Here are a couple pictures of my newly installed CF lip.
And I'm getting these rims from sonic, i just did a test fit and that sealed the deal for me. They just got these in, 19X8.5 in the front and 19X9.5 in the back.

What you guys think? They have silver and the matted black in the picture. I like the matted black ones. As you can see, compare to the oem rims, these don't look like they are tucked in at all.
All suggestions are welcome.
And any suggestions on tires?

I think either of those wheels would look sick. Nice upgrade!

Swap those sidemarkers, homey!

M-bENZ

he defnitely need to do that lol.

Andy

guofan

Thanks Pat!
I been thinking about changing them out. There are two types on ebay, clear and black. Not sure if I like any of them. Well I prefer the black one. But i want a CF one, don't really care about these bulbs. lol

Hey i still can't mess with those chrome type wheels you got bro. lmao

guofan

I wanna wrap the side markers like how you did with your grille, but im afraid it be too hot for the tape to stay on.

dynomite05

You could also go with painted..

astropat

Chrome type wheels FTW!

Maybe you can get them painted to color match your car... that would be way better.

guofan

what you do with your side markers?
