Kudos for both having a great car and the fact that being in a wheelchair doesn't stop you from modding and working on your car.

Next steps are?

going to be doing some interior trim work. and am going back to chrome grill + chrome badges. . Been thinking about a color change also.

You pulled the Hell out of your Front Fender


I really like that fact and I like the Orange Ambers

Thanks. I plan to go lower offset than the current +8 ET all around really surprised that the paint didnt chip anymore than it did. Its only cracked a little on the inside lip. I did however use a heat gun & A T-ball wood bat. before moving to a MLB size louisville slugger.

Never Really posted a build thread over here So here we go
When she got her first mod lights + amber corners




Had a fender bender


So i slowly rebuilt in the garage. Didnt snap much shots of it . just changed the fan clutch radiator and thermostat housing/ water pump





Then i got the front end painted and picked up some CLK amg wheels along with a drop on H&Rs







painted the grill black..........





Then Picked up some bilsteins through them on and cut a couple coils off of the H&R lowering springs
Nice meaty tires on 17s rofl.




Was able to track down some Euro Spec amber tail lights for a W202 C-class which i found to be quite the challenge in the united states as they didnt make them or import them for US spec mercs.





wasnt low enough so i removed the 15mm thick spring pads.
The front bumper was also painted all white i had the intention of going for the all white look





And so got over all that and was turned onto the stance game. searched all over Merc forums for wheels wide enough for stretch found these CLS500 18s 18x8.5 18x9.5. Through some 215's on em and spaced em out to +8 all around.





^ prior to the baseball bat roll / pull that i did on the fenders.
After me and my buddy went to town on the fenders with a baseball bat








Wanted to complete the euro look so i took the bumpers and trim off and painted them up real quick. All easy DIY budget build not to mention everything i have done so far i have accomplished from the seat of my wheelchair , Had a couple buddies help on the rear when dropping the lower control arm with the old floor jack trick to get around having to use a spring compressor






decided to add a lil flavor to the grill that a lot of people ***** LOL




Next to our stock height W202 C43 AMG


got a couple photos shot by Bojangles (David N) hes the newest blogger/photographer for dude blvd crew

Got tired of the sticker bomb grill a couple weeks ago because of the wet weather we have been getting so i rattle canned it . The trim is also done with rattle can **** it or love it.
this is how she sits right now as of today
