Yea, Iv'e always wanted one of those but I cannot see myself paying $100 for a flat emblem =\ If it were $50, I would buy lol. I only want the oem ones that are modified. Not the larger plastic flat emblem that doesn't even fit inside the the hole.

Those rims you want look like mine

I just got this set of 20's about a month ago concept neeto staggered with a 4 inch lip out back just started fixing the car up a few months ago this is sort of what your new rims will look like on your car. Since everyone has comments here just wanted to know if I went too ghetto what do you think?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder; if you like them, that's all that matters. Are you going to lower it with springs or pads?

What used to be ghetto has gained across the board respectability. Think of your car like rap music: It's used to be labeled a fad, now Wall Street embraces it...Good Luck with them,pimp....

I agree, but it looks cooler that way lol.

By the way everyone. I'm going to take new pictures (more recent ones) where I will have a flat hood emblem and the rear will be raised with #3 pads instead of #1. I already have the pads done, I'm just waiting to get my emblem from dfw dude.

Am I going to lower my e430

I dont know much about how hard it is to lower the car and then since I have 20's now I dont know how much more my ride would be affected as a result it looks like a few of you have lowered your cars which would be the easiest / best way of doing this pads, springs?

Last edited by eric1411; Dec 14, 2006 at 11:36 AM. Reason: spelled springs wrong

Well, you can do it either way. Depending on what size pads you already have in your vehicle, you will be able to lower it about a half an inch or so. If you want to lower it an inch or more, then use springs.

that is the one I ordered from dfw dude I believe. I sent in my emblem to him to be converted in order to save a little cash. It is taking a while as my emblem should have arrived there by now. I hate it that I don't have an emblem right now so I feel stupid driving a benz with a giant hole in the hood =\

Kidding man. Looks clean. A nice drop from some H&Rs or some Eibachs would look mean.
