4Matic lowering springs installed

I installed the Vaeth lowering springs on my E350 4Matic a while a go but never got around to take pics.
Well, it was way more expensive than expected but I pulled the trigger to stance the thing
The ride is pretty harsh but I am used to stiff suspensions so it's okay.
Enjoy!

I agree with you, I'm not doing business with Vaeth ever again.

I've done:
-black sport grille
-smoked reflectors
-smoked taillight
-35% tint all around
-roof&trunk spoilers
-custom W211 AMG like quad exhaust
-blacked out trunk chrome piece
-Vaeth lowering springs
-19" Brabus Monoblock S

Looks very nice. I'm liking the smoke taillights. It looks actually good. did you do the whole light or just the reverse lights? Also, is that a factory roof spoiler? and your rear spoiler? it looks different from mine...AMG?

1. I did the whole light but more layers of spray on turnsignal and reverse lights.
2. Both roof and trunk spoilers are eBay ones lol

Not a fan of the grille or tailpipes (W212 looks right with angular pips IMO), but aside from that I think it looks great and has a good theme going.

like the tail lights a lot.....does the film or paint or whatever impair your backing up?
is there a lot less light to see?
it gives the rear a great spooky look.....

It's a clearcoat darkend with a basecoat.
Theoretically there should be less light but since our cars are equipped with LEDs, it is bright enough.

I emailed Vaeth customer service directly and they arranged everything for me.

Thank you sir
Before doing your tails, remove those chrome strips on the lower third of doors!!

Very nice. How much are you lowered and what are the wheel and tire spec?

Very nice indeed

Does anyone know if regular H&R or Eibach springs will work on a 4matic? I would like to lower my 11 E350 4matic.
