That pic with your hood open is now my desktop We have identical car cept' the rims and mines a 2001.I am finally getting my car lowered tomorrow. I can't wait for the results. Took the place a week to order the Eibach springs. Guy said it will drop it 1.2 inches. I love the stance of your car. It must be on air bags? I would be afraid to drive it at that height.

You say your car is a 97 w210? Did you put blinker mirrors and a tele-aid antenna cap on it?

I got it lowered today. So far I like the looks. Looks great from the rear! One thing though. When I accelerate from a stop I hear a soft clunk noise. I hope this goes away after a few hours of driving. Otherwise its back to the shop :ugh: As far as the pics, I am gonna wash/wax it tomorrow and if I can find my digi cam's usb cord I'll post up a pic. Oh ya, make sure you take your car to a shop that has Mercedes tools. This shop didn't and had to take it to a German car repair shop. They lost 100 dollars on the deal because the didn't make money on the labor. Opps.

most noises go away or change to a different noise after hours of driving. you may have to drive across country a couple times, but don't give up!
