Your suspension is so lazy, it's decided to leave your car on the ground.

You are so lazy, you can't even clean your wheels before taking a pic of your non-AMG.

It is because the failure of airmatic, so I decided to change it to air suspension.

I am more interested in pics of the air suspension setup and how much room it takes up in your trunk. I seen that SonicMS posted this pic thread on another forum and they called it "SONIC" air suspension. They did'nt show the system in their thread either, did they design their own system?

Reminde me of a ricer car! But if you like it I guess that is what counts. I was thinking of coil overs when the airmatic gives way!

I never understood cars slammed to the ground and never will, most here would not either. That is more Lexus territory where the VIP look takes precedence over performance for many. But, it's your car. Not sure if you expected a better response in the AMG section of the forums. People do not purchase an AMG to go VIP so the crowd here as witnessed will not be the most agreeable.
Plus, clean those wheels before snapping pics.
I do like the Wald kit though.

airbags have no performance benefit what so ever.

This is an appearance modification and nothing more.
