Big Booty Benz / '86 420 SE

I have B8s on my w201 and they handle fairly well, given that the lowering springs are pretty soft. The B6s IIRC are they HDs and are more forgiving.
For the body roll if you can find bigger swaybars that'll help also. \
But yeah Bilstein are great especially over OEM

[Laef]

So any advises on the shocks guys?

[Laef]

Thank you sir, much appreciated!

Ur car is tits dude ��������

[Laef]

What's up guys,

Needed some advises: I need to change my shocks due to the freaking body roll and bouncy shitty ride since I cut the stock springs more... Yes, I just want to change the shocks for now, I'll consider new springs later.

So, the question was, I've heard a lot of good about Bilstein shocks (B6 or B8 ones in europe) but I really don't know which one to choose...

Anyone has had an experience with those already?

The car is awesome. I would keep the grille in black cause it's a nice combination with the wheels.

Thanks man! Too late I just painted it haha, in dark gray tho, that's slightly lighter now

I should trade my W201 for a W126, they look so gangster.

Yeah that is kinda THE Mafia Benz haha

Oh, and today I removed the "loweredstatus" windshield sticker, couldn't see it anymore.

Hello?

I'm just leaving this here.







More pics soon!

[Laef]

Well thank you!

I feel you on the "color matched to bumpers" thing, you're the second one to tell me about it and after all I think I'd look great !
Yeah I followed Twannnd's build, very clean and inspiring build.

Although I want to keep saving for my better wheels, I'd reaaaally like to find some 3-pieces AMG aeros... And then I'll color match them to the bumpers haha

i just read the entire thread. really nice progress, altough i kept hoping you wouldn't go for black centers. i know it's been done before by a Dutch member on here with breytons (twannnd), but i think those borbets would be absolutely perfect if they where colorcoded with the darker bumpers.

anyway still a really nice build. interested to see how this continues.

[Laef]

Damn, thanks guys for the kind words haha

I think i'm gonna paint the front grill back to the OEM grey, it has grown on me, and I find this more classier for the Benz.

Oh and c ya dis wknd for moar low!
