Slightly lowered my E550 today. Pics

I installed a set of adjustable links on my E550. EBay ones. Simple kit. I went for 3/4 all around.
Ended up with that in rear but a little shy in the front. Just enough gap gone.

Pics are in sport suspension setting.
20" staggered AMG reps

I also removed my lower door molding over last weekend. Such a cleaner look. I like seeing the body line.

That looks good. Do you have a 'before' photo? I'm having a hard time picturing the trim you removed.

Looks really good, you may want to consider getting the chrome trim around the windows, door handles and trunk trim wrapped in black..if interested pm me your cell number and I can shoot you a couple of pics. Cheers

thanks. I kinda like the little contrast. But I've been thinking of wrapping. Is your car black? If so send some pics.

Nice drop. I'm more and more tempted to do mine. How bad was it?

And what is this lower door molding that you removed? Is that the lower chrome piece?
