Eibach springs just bought! installing soon

hey guys. I just bought eibach springs for my benz for only $199+ $30 shipping. Not a bad price considering retail they go for $469. I will install them soon and take pics. it should really help the ride height for the car and give it a much more aggressive stance on my 93 300SE. Also I will be figuring out my intake situation so i can run a true cold air intake kit, Also I will be figuring out what I can do with exhaust.

Question Did you ever change your grille to the S600 Avantgarde Grille

Where did you purchase S600 avantgarde grille? How much was it? Did it make a difference? My car is the same color as yours. It's fun to see you fixing yours up. You need to post current pictures.

hey guys, no S600 grill, i kinda like current one. the only new mod is i took off my front liscence plate and liscence plate cover and front end looks SOOO much better. other then that its still as it was, gonna do springs and intake in next month, then next year i will rework entire exhaust system including stock headers then redyno to see the gains, hopefully I will pull S420-S500 numbers with this motor, should be good to see what i can do.
