Fellow W211 owners: What products are you dying to get?
Same question I asked over on the W203 and W204 forums. What products are you guys dying to get your hands on that is either not being made or has been seen in a few one off or so examples.
I have myself the CF interior and the first CF hood grill. These are some of the stuff I'm talking about.
I'm talking with a couple of companies about some things, so I figured I'd shoot them some ideas from the 211/203/204 crowds.
Thanks
Mike

Some stuff I'd like:
Carbon fiber vented hood
Carbon fiber trunk
uerethane bushings kit (energy suspension?)
Front & rear swaybar/strut brace (GLK3504Matic might be a step ahead on this but I'm not sure)
M272 350 pulley (JB Speed and AMS sell them but I want to be 100% certian when it comes to mechanical parts)
M272 350 headers (some tlaiwan-made ones on ebay, maybe a good template?)
M272 350 airbox or CAI
Also, I think it would be cool if there was a ready-made kit that included the OEM grill and hood louvers in gloss black/flat black ect so you can just swap them right out.

Here's what I want
Front 2006 Grill but --- 2007 style without having to change the bumper out ... So I want the same height n width but with a steeper pyramid like the 07s have..
2) Xenons but at halogen prices
3) Widest possible wheel setup for 4matic (they have to be non-staggered)
4) A hybrid - AMG engine .... yea, I want to save gas when I dont need the power
call me crazy!~

I'm staying away from doing performance parts, however, I will be offering them up for sale once accounts are setup.
Some stuff I'd like:
Carbon fiber vented hood
Carbon fiber trunk
uerethane bushings kit (energy suspension?)
Front & rear swaybar/strut brace (GLK3504Matic might be a step ahead on this but I'm not sure)

Bushings kit, likely not at this time. All other performance parts, again, i'm staying away from making.
What do you mean about the hood louvers? The hood vents that up top near the windshield? I think it's probably easier to get it painted than having it made in just black

Headlight rings shouldn't be a problem, but the general concensus is that they are tacky chrome...so CF.. I dunno... UNLESS your car is black.. something to consider. What about door handle trims do you mean exactly?

I'll have to check for the vented hood. Should be feasible. Trunk lid as well.

Trunk would be awesome.
Yes, the hood vents on the top. You're right, it would be easier I'm just lazy haha.

Not dying to get but on the wish list:
BBK
AMG Side Skirts
Spacers for wheels (although I need to determine what size to maximize the "offset")
Euro COMAND
Folding side mirrors
One day. For now, I'm OK with what I have.
