Can you send me a link to the side skirts. They look awesome. Also, you mentioned you did a carbon front splitter. Do you have a link for that as well? I've been looking and there are few options. Cheers!

That's why it was impossible to fix one of the connectors in the hose:

Luckily, guys in the workshop managed to find the appropriate hose.

Here's some pics from the workshop:

Size matters

Installed

Something to think about, did you increase the water pump pressure, flow rate and did you install a larger heat exchanger ?
If you didn't there is no benefit from a larger charge cooler core, it will just hold more hot water not a cooler air charge than the OEM unit..

I don't see any aftermarket upgrade options for M276 radiator. Any suggestions?
As for water pump pressure, I'll ask my tuners to take a look.

If the guys selling you this stuff didn't mention a new high flow water pump and larger heat exchanger I'd find someone that knows what they are doing.
Ask them what your stock charge air temps are at full boost under load vs the larger charge cooler intake air temps, my bet is they have no idea..

Hi, here's the source: https://zdkit.en.alibaba.com/?spm=a2...1f9c3e5ffVbncX
Send him a message directly and describe your needs. Based on my experience (and 2 my friends), he's a reliable guy.

As for fender flares, they are stock, GLC 43.
I was searching for carbon flares for 43, but didn't find anything, only for 63.

Thank you!
About MW, I decided to wait for some real life fitment review of their intake on GLC43. Just don't want to throw 1.4k (plus shipping) for something that may not fit.
If I lived in the U.S., I'd definetely try, but I am too far, so the shipping costs are insane.
I found a mint intake kit from MST as a temporary solution, gonna try it soon.

AMG Performance seats

Well, finally! The AMG seats are here!
Brand new from the factory.
Full electro + ventilation.
My original seats didn't have ventilation, so I had to buy a new door buttons.
Installation was bolt-on.
Took some time to code a ventilation feature though.
My back is finally happy

​​​​​Thanks.
