VIP-Inspired 202 Mercedes

[OCKlasse]

Hey guys, new to the forum, and just wanted to share my ride with you. It's a work in progress still, but I think it will be very VIP worthy when it's finished. It's a 98 C230 Smoke Silver Metallic with Beige leather. Let me know if you have any questions about the car. I included some pics with my Brabus front bumper I test fit (don't worry, I don't drive around like that - lol), and there are many more mods to come, so stay tuned ;)...next up is Supersprint exhaust (on the way from Germany), then FBSS air bag suspension, then I will get the bumper painted...

you can bag anything with wheels pretty much.

yeah...It's going to be a little tricky on this car. I want to keep the shocks all the way around, so I have to run fairly small bags all around. I am also going for as low as possible, but not having MacPhersons in the front, I should have no problem tucking rim up front as well as a generous amount in the rear.

two words: universal air.
and run air zenith compressors.

It's funny...I originally was going to use AZ compressors, but have heard nothing but bad things about them (amp draw, burn quick)...a lot of people seem to have better luck with Viair compressors.

[OCKlasse]

one more ;)

I think for the price of one AZ, I will just get two Viairs, because at least if one burns out, I will have an extra in there already..and thanks for site, but I think I will be using suicidedoors.com for all my stuff.

very nice ride!! I like the painted bumper. The new one seems a little square.

Keep up the good work
