So I bagged the benz

Just like the thread title says I redid my car last month. Sold the 20" vossen CVTs and drop springs. I went with Ksport adjustable air struts, Airlift V2 management, Seamless air tank painted to match, Custom Air in Motion 3 piece wheels. Im running 19"x11.5 in rear with 19x10.5 in front.
Also installed RW Carbon front lip, rear diffuser and side skirt extensions not pictured in all pics.

I know the bagged stanced look isn't for everyone but I couldn't be happier.

Other mods: p1 halogen lamps retrofitted with bixenon projectors, dummy in high, color changing smart phone controlled demon eyes. custom painted grill.

Could you post a pic of the tank the in the trunk? I'm interested to see how much room it takes up. Also want to see those side skirt extensions and demon eyes in action! Nice ride!

thanks man I don't have the car with me currently its at my house I'm at work. We mounted the tank to the deck lid, hid all the compressors and management behind the oem trunk liner really doesn't take up much room at all. Any idea if I can post videos on here?? If not they are posted on my Instagram username @rihids

they were very difficult to remove the front lenses. I own a custom lighting company this is by far the hardest set Ive done. the sealant Benz uses on the w212 is no joke.

I am liking what you did to your ride. Not many w212 out there with an aggressive set up so it is truly unique. I am surprised we can fit 10.5 up front. I always wonder if it would fit. Keep up the great work and we need more pics.

Who's ... That's super low and sleek. Cool looking car. More like a show car than a daily driver. Speed bumps, Kerbs and potholes will be your enemy.

With his choice of using airbags, he can raise/lower the car at will. It likely isn't driven much when fully "slammed"
