You can't sit here and tell me I'm losing/wasting my money when you have 0 idea of my situation or what I like to do with what I earn from working honestly - very presumptuous and arrogant.

This is an incredibly dumb thread. First we have people unbolting parts from there car to mod it, then we have people saying any modifications to your car usually lead to problems. << losing a lot of faith right now.

Crafty where you at my man?
ok, piddly things like a catback exhaust shouldn't have an effect on reliability. Once you start getting into big boy mods, then you can 100% have reliability issues.

Do what you want kid, but in 10 years, you'll realize.

"but in 10 years, you'll realize."

I don't live my life with regrets. In 10 years I'll probably have a different Mercedes. And I'm much happier that way - everyone makes mistakes but you become a horribly bitter person if you dwell on them.

Actually it would be great if you don't bother to reply to any of my questions. Believe it or not there are many members of the forum that are also very technically inclined with these vehicles and have even more experience. So don't discredit them.
