Haha...dedication...when you don't get quoted lower than 500 for a max 300 dollar job...it'll make you take a little vacation drive...

What's the progress?

Sitting in the shop on my iPhone looking at my college grades, playing games on my iPhone and talking with the mechanics...they're on the second front...

Seems pretty straight forward of a job...

As for Barstow there's a mall and horrible roads...lol...no Vegas that's for sure...

that my friend is one clean, sexy 209
ive always loved the mandrus milleniums in black! its super sex! i love the red caliper as well, cannot go wrong with classic red! mate that wit a black "Mercedes Benz" brake decals, would totally complete the look.
and im totally diggin the tinted clears on the tailights! i remember before when people were against doing the clears, and now more and more are emergin because it really looks good!
cant wait to see your car dopped man! its goign to make it look much more aggressive.

BTW how wide are the rear lip for the mandrus milleniums? i love the multispoke, but i think with a wider lip would look SEX!

goodjob bro! keep us updated with more pics!

Newjd2

Haha thanks man!...the tint really sets it off...I'm gonna do my headlights and fogs when I get home...

And I ordered the decals in black that said "Mercedes-Benz" but I never received them and am disputing now...looking for another set from another website...

The wheels are amazing and I'm in love...the front is 1 inch lip and the back is 2.75?...I believe...

More pics up tonight for sure...

Thanks again guys...

As promised...long over due because of this excessive rain we've been having in Vegas, but still were able to snap a couple photos after the drop...will have a photo shoot of the civic and benz in no time and better day time photos...

Also, thanks to all on the great advice getting in done in CA...hour and 45 minute drive to save 300+ dollars...well worth it and met a great shop/ owner...

Let me know what you think though...

The drop looks good, how's the ride? I see the calipers shining through the wheels a bit. lol, in the light it almost looks like it says CLK 555.

HAHA!!...what do you know about my 5.55L engine?...lol...yeah no...it says 500...not the re-badging type...

The ride is great!!...no rub...well a bit on dips, but nothing major...alignment is great so I'm in love...haha...

Ride comfort hasn't been effected at all...just more weary of pot holes now...

Looks really good, I'm a big fan of black wheels with the silver/chrome lip.
