My W124 E300 diesel build

[chompsticks]

Agree on going lower all around. I'll probably chop off another coil on the springs?? I am still saving up for some bilstein sports, when those come in then we will be lower for sure.

I definitely thought about machining the face of the wheels. Any idea on pricing? So far I got one quote of $1000 including clear-coating the faces afterwards which seems a bit high.

As far as color matching goes, I think it looks better on other color w124s. The two tone white looks better to me at least I think.

Had thought about redoing the tint, I did a 50% all around, but I am thinking about doing the lumar air blue tint instead. Thoughts?


Funny story about the front plate. Some bitch stole if off of my car while I was out with friends, While we were headed to the bar we saw girl waving the plate around saying look what I stole.... Needless to say I got it back without too much confrontation...

always wanted to have a set of these on my coupe but they're pretty rare find here in our country...

would like to see your e-class laying on the ground, also you can widen the rears

Front needs to come down, repaint the lower panels a matching white and you'll fall back into love with it

Lets see some black smoke!

But I'm not sure what I think about those Kelleners..

Need to spice it up da benz! Any suggestions? I know more low for sure. Debating on getting the wheels redone in a different color.

Beautiful diesel!! We were twining when you first bought the car and put the mono blocks on it lol!! love what you've done to it!

love how it looks right now with my dream wheels lol

So not much in updates besides being poor at the moment. Had the windows tinted 50% all around two tires blew out so now I am back to stockies... Anywho, I am thinking of getting the faces painted or powdercoated since I am going to have to get new tires. Suggestions on color? I don't quite like the white on white look so I am thinking of just plain ole silver, polished, chromed, or machined. Input greatly appreciated!

Also have some questions about setting up an airride system for anyone that can help.

Looks great man

Still needs some low love

Just a classic look. I think I'll need about a 10 in the front and and 20 in the rear to make it 33 and 24 effectively. Would a 24 offset on 8.5 be too much for the rears with -3 degree camber?

Make me miss my set, you'll need spacers to clear the front brakes btw. Excited to see how it turns out.

Front plate always makes me smile.

Kelleners came off on stockies for a few more days. Going to have some aeros on soon! undecided if I'm going to get the refinished to body color or just a plain Jane silver.
