I hope someone here would be able to recommend a few spray painting workshops. I kinda intend to change the colour of my car.
And also if anyone knows if there's any lip set available for my car? i've always prefer a subtle change.
Thanks for your help.
Previous Ride:
W203 - Lorinser kit, rims, kleeman pulley, remus
5 series - car overturned - total loss
Now: W211

How about the good old System 6 from Tuff Kote?
I really like to have rain water form very tiny dropplets and simply dribble off on its own... rather than leaving ugly water spots...
Any views?

Spending $3K a year is unnecessary. Marine Teflon is pretty good, or could go for Glare. On top of these sealants, you should use a quick detailer to mist and remove water droplets before they dry by the sun, resulting in water spotting.
For showroom wet shine before big events, can add Zaino or carnauba wax rich wax, but these shine don't last long.

Thanks all for your helpful feedback.
Sybron - i will keep a lookout for available lip sets and keep u posted.
I dun really see much available currently, most of them recommend changing the whole bumper. Anyway, i might hafta stick to Brabus coz i juz went to change to the Monoblock S design rims ... heh`! .. couldn't resist it coz i really didn't like the stock rims.
Oh yeah, can anyone feedback if any of you experience the "Engine Check light" after installing the headers and high flow cat from Kleemann?
Cheers ~!

I have the Kleeman header and sports cat fitted, no problem with engine check light, its a good idea to have a diagnostic check, maybe the computer needs to reset the parameter

Gents,
The stock secondary cats is a pain, it suffocates the entire exhaust system....I replaced the stock secondary cats with the high flow metallic cats and the flow is awesome....high rev is incredible and the the engine has more room to breathe......
IMO, the stock cats is a junk....
I have checked that the C200, E200, CLK 200 and SLK 200 with the M271 chaiss shares the same stock cats.....

I have checked online, Kleemann is selling more than 1600 Euro at their webshop, this excludes freight and installation...Freight will be at least another 100 Euro at least and local installation will be an additional cost factor....
So when are you going to get yours fixed ?
