I can't wait! My Zaino came in yesterday. I ordered ZPC, ZFX and Z2. What did you use?

2 questions from abroad. What is a Zaino? Or who is Zaino?

The benz badge on the hood (2nd picture), is it there because of less theft risk or just because it looks nice.
All w220 around here have the upright star which looks great, but seems to be very attractive to vandals/collectors.

By far one of the cleanest S-classes here. Kudos to you for not going for any of those Brabus body kits and underbody lights. Those are not my cup of tea at all.

Is the Brabus lowering module something that can be installed by sending in the ECU? Or do they need the car to install?

I think the front and the rear can go lower by a notch or two, but that's unhealthy for your suspension if you drive the vehicle daily.

The module has to be installed in the car physically, it's an additional module, the ECU is for engine control.

The install is pretty simple DIY if you have some basic electrical knowledge and can tell your colors apart.

So this mod is something I could order from Brabus and install DIY? I live to far away from any service center that would install for me.
