Might be the only bagged C43 AMG Benz ever ?

[SD202]

Just a small update many of you already saw this on my Instagram. I have thrown on some new shoes. theyre VMR v701 19x9.5 all around +45et with 20mm spacers front and 17mm spacers rear. Still dialing it in. I think the offset is to high to begin with so i plan to space them out more.

before the respray








Had to respray them.

Dont mind the meat tires. Running them bald then going back to stretch 255 is to meaty for my taste. it is nice putting that V8 power down though.




And this might happen... gonna need a lot of work and much wider wheels

Never would have guessed that lip would fit so well lol

Dude, It literally fits so many types of cars, I got a buddy who has it on his nissan S14, Seen it on S13's as well. Also my buddy runs one on his AE101 Corolla And on his UCF10 Lexus

zip ties ftw!

Yea, i was gonna say having it lined up w/ that divet would be awesome. I gotta admit though, that lip entirely changes what that front amg bumper looks like. I've got a brabus w203 coupe lip that i've stashed away to hopefully mold to my bumper some day... Is your lip pretty flexible?

Yeah its very flexible, Made form Polyurethane so it should be able to be plastic welded instead of having to deal with mixing massive amount of epoxies. The brabus coupe lips look soo good, Thats what charlie (theBenzE) runs on his coupe they're really strong lips. I believe theyre ABS same as your bumper. molding it on there shouldnt be an issue at all for you.

Love this and now I want one! lol

DO IT! C43 AMG can be bought for pennies on the dollar in comparison to other "performance" cars of its day. The title of this build thread needs to be changed now that i helped a buddy of mine on the east coast bag his black C43 AMG. now there are two of us, Maybe three soon???

Its not shaved or molded yet. Just held on with..... wait for it........... zipties Going to attempt to have it molded higher on sides and flushed in with that divet so it flows much better up front and from the side so that the roundness lines up with the side skirt. The way it is mounted right now doesnt actually look to out of line with the side skirt Just pops out funny.

Any info on how you molded the lip? Looks pretty dang good to me!

I like the integra lip, but no splitter. If you're going to mold the lip in, maybe have the corners brought up so they flow with the sideskirts?

[SD202]

A lot of you have already seen this but here it is again, I decided to retrofit a front lip from a Integra because there are no aftermarket lips for a C43 AMG bumper. thinking about having it shaved and molded into the bumper permanently as well as adding a splitter.

I may have inappropriately laughed at the "crippled a$$" comment. And changing an AMG interior? That's awesome. I think the wheelchair is just to hold your large cojones. Much props to you sir.

Sick work on the interior

Thanks dude! I still need to get some real shots of it, not these cell phone pictures. I got a few more changes in store for her tho.

Great work on the recent interior updates. I will never understand why MBs tend to have the pillars and ceiling of the interiors in a lighter color than the rest of the interior... Looks sick in all black!

Thanks brotha! im for sure loving the all black tho. Same here man, I just dont get who thought. Lets use a color that doesnt compliment anything else in this cars interior. like light grey vinyl against a blue and black leather interior. These W202 roof liners flow somewhat decent with the two tone black/white(greyish white) AMG interiors. Even my beige/brown C280 interior had an off beige color on the headliner vinyl that didnt match the rest of the interior

Wow that interior is amazing! Huge kudo's to you for doing the headliner by yourself, it's a difficult job when your legs work so I can't imagine how you did it. Well done.

Thanks dude! I really like how it turned out as well.wasnt sure how the diamond stitch was gonna work up against the suede especially since its two different thicknesses of foam. The headliner literally took all day from start to finish for just the removal process. Did i mention this is my second W202? I knew the steps involved it was just a huge job without a helping hand. I then upholstered it let it sit a full 48 hours. and reinstalled. putting it back in was only about a 4 hour process. Lots of transfers from chair to car and vice versa.One of the hardest parts was transferring into my back seat on such a small sedan with virtually no leg room.
