Welcome. Just cruise around the many threads within the w209 group. Anything you can dream up can be found. Wheels are great first mod to do. Check out the wheel and tire sticky thread at the top. Mods are very addicting... so be prepared.

Debadge, clear or smoked corners, spoiler and you're on your way for $200US or so. Welcome to the addiction!

Welcome! And changing your profile pic? Oh, that's easy - just scroll to the top of this page and look for the thread header (it will be below the banner ad). Below that is a toolbar and the second option will be "User CP". Click on that and you'll get a drop-down menu where you can choose "Edit Profile Picture". Then use that to upload one of your choosing.

Interesting take on an AMG design, not too shabby.

Not too shabby = Not bad looking at all

However... If you're paying $1K for 4 wheels and 4 new tires I would walk away. The Middle East is full of extremely low quality wheels that are prone to cracking and failing while driving. Very, very dangerous, I would only buy wheels made by a manufacturer that has proper certifications.

There are some pictures in my albums, just go to my profile page.

That seems very cheap for quality wheels, make sure they have proper certification stamps on them, its not a guarantee but at least your making an attemp to make sure your getting something 'safe'. I've had some really bad experiences with wheel manufacturers, for the most part when they tell the truth - they did it by accident.
