suspension and wheels. the recipe is easy but the ingredients are crucial.

that second shot would be fantastic if it didnt have all those people in it... car looks very clean, from the front at least.

altho he forgot "lower it" a couple o times

[siopaolover]

haha alright i'm gonna get new wheels, lower it, and possibly add spacers and some stretched tires?

Welcome! Glad to see another 210 here. That's exactly what mine looked like stock. What I did was
1. colormatched orange reflectors to body color
2. had all the lower black trim colormatched to body color
3. lowered it
4. wheels
5. projectors/hid
6. 00-02 amg tails
etc...
Lemme know if you need any pointers. You can avoid some of the frustrations that the process of elimination brought my way.

It can be tough to decide what you really want to do but I look foward to what you decide,

[siopaolover]

@nelson09: thanks a lot! got my mind going. lol. and i swear i've seen your car on a different forum...

@krolik: wooo! benz party haha

[siopaolover]

i FINALLY got new wheels! umm now i need help with spacers and stuff...

[projektzwo]

you're getting in wrong direction i think...

need wider wheels, even with spacer these will not work, but that's just me...

also if i were you - will change the taillights with stock ones or the facelift ones.
