It will look something like this, it's a must IMO, unless you like the 4x4 look

2006 SLK280.
i have a 280, and have the springs for my car sitting waiting. it will be lowered in the enxt week , so i will post some pics up when it is done. what drop yuo considering? shocks and springs, coilovers or springs? i just opted for springs as coilovers are excellent but not necessary for the r171 as standard shocks are of excellent quality already.

It's probably a 200/280. I said it'll look similiar to this, look at the brake rotors and calipers, 350's are much bigger.

Yeah, they are pretty good but not super bowl good, and anything less than that in the rockies is no good. What's your prediction against the Raiders? I say Raiders in a blow out! .



j/k..

that game may just be closer than what the score will indicate... it's always hard playing against them winless team cause of the mental fear that ur team may just be the one to give them their first victory... BUT, since u drive this nice SLK, ill be rootin for the Broncos!!

You think the same way I do, I think it's going to be closer than everyone thinks, it might be a last minute victory for the broncos, but I don't mind blowing out the raiders, it's always feels good to beat up on al davis's team.
