Vic, that is a great looking wagon you have there. Can't wait to see pics once you get going with your mods.

Nice!
Looking forward to seeing your work on it.
I'll be ordering my new 220CDI 4matic tomorrow. Will be going for the same color as yours, AMG package and Night Package. I want the keyless go, but i do not like the chrome top of the door handles in combination with the night package when all other chrome details are gone.

I really like the chrome trims, IMO the night package removes the exclusive look, also cars with night package is very common around here, so I guess Ill stand out with my trims

Did you already paint the car? The car in your signature looks like completely different colour from the one earlier in the post. I guess the light late in the evening makes a difference?
Which colour is it actually?

Unfortunately no runflats available in these sizes, still the ride is not bad at all, I had 20.s on my former 205 with Airmatic and one of the great pros with Airmatic is that the ride comfort almost is intact even when adjusting the zero position.

vic, car is looking really sweet with those mods. I give you props for having the guts to take the front bumper off a car with 5kms on it. :-)

Yeah, with one of the highest taxes in the world our roads are actually very good,
I have had large wheels and a low ride height on almost all my former Mercs and havnt had any issues ... yet
These are my first 21s though
Hopefully the window tinter will arrive after the weekend, I hate the sharp contrast between the hard tinted stock windows and the all clear front side windows.
