I had my Tail lights blacked out, but I got a ticket for them the day after i did it...


My car is pretty my blacked out to the limit(even then have my front windows lightly tinted illegally) so thats as black as I can go...

siopaolover

nice! btw, are your headlights 10,000K?

My car E320, tinted, amg rims, lowered.

Hey, just a suggestion. Go to a paint shop and have them mix a can of 744 Brilliant silver for you and then mask your doors and bumper and paint the black trim on the bottom of the car. Also, if you are looking for springs, I purchased the H&R kit and cut 1 coil with spring pad #1. Just for your reference.

siopaolover

Thanks! i was just about to ask haha. did you paint them yourself? and do you mean the H&R cup kit?

markusr15

Naa, just the h&r springs or w/e it's called. Think it ran me like 130-180 but that's wholesale I think.. Umm Yeaa I painted my trim my self, masked that **** and sprayed it. Makes the car look alot better. Just make sure you get it mixed to 744 silver. Also if you change the springs be carefull with the springs because they are always under tension, and the spring compressors you can rent at like autozone won't fit in our cars. If you have any questions pm me and I'll let you know how to get them out easily.

wow thats really sucks... i previously had my headlights and taillight blacked out and i remember driving around cops that just looked at them but never seemed to care to much...then one day decided they needed to go.

kinda missed my headlights blacked out but man light output was horrible lol

Here's an update on mines, finally got front of the car lowered need to get to the rears(work and school -_-). H&R on #3 pad in front.

markusr15

You need to get on Pad # 1 all around!!!

blacked210

today was a nice day, so finally got around to installing those rear springs with the #1 pads. now all thats left if to get and install to #1 up front. will get some pictures when i'm done, looks kinda odd now that the rear is quite a bit lower then the front....

Btw if anyone needs to borrow some spring compressors to do their springs in the bay area i can lend you mines just send me a PM. i have some replica Klann ones which worked great and didnt feel cheap at all, most important i didnt have to get a shop to do it, save some $$$$.

desired_speeds

yea, H&Rs are kind of weird. You have to run the #1 pads in the front or else it'll look almost stock height, while the rear gets a good drop. They say cutting on coil on the front on H&Rs will give a more even drop.

Just got her a couple of weeks ago. Looking for a set of 19s and a decent bronze tint job.

siopaolover

now i really have to paint the black around mine haha. and i might take you up on that offer for the compressors...

blacked210

i would defiantly recommend painting the lower trim it really updates the look of the car a bit, and whats even better if you can find a set of face-lifted sideskirts.... but i havent had any luck

What is this bumper lip?! can you take a close pic please?

So Markus,
This current stance with the blk AMG rims ..is from cutting ONE coil & combo with #1 pad ???
Looks good ..just trying to gauge how far i need to go down on my car
t
thanks !!
~t-bone~

markusr15

Ya, that is the H&R springs with exactly one coil cut on spring pad #1. I am on 18's with a 235/40/18 tire as well, be careful if you are on 20's because if you cut to mush the rims might rub really bad. Tomorrow Ill snap some better pics with my D60 and post em here so you can see better.

As far as the spring compressor goes. Which one do you have BLACKEDw210? Because the MCphearson and the coilspring one wont fit with the H&R springs on our cars.

Any one know, does the facelift sideskirts fit on the nonfacelift w210?

nelson09

Yessir, pre-facelift skirts and face-lift skirts are interchangeable as well as rear bumpers too if I'm not mistaken...the front clip is all that changed exterior wise =]

tbone006

SWEET! I love when sh*t is inter-changeable : )

• Rear Bumper

Anyone know of a good source for rear bumper (Used or new)? Side skirts too.
MB salvage yards are very few around Seattle area..and not a lot of parts to choose from.

tbone006

PS - Thanks MaRKUS !!! Yes i have 20's ..but there is a fairly good gap still. Ya i dont want to SLAM it in the weeds..just git the gap to disappear and get a good stance
