Afternoon Pal and welcome, thats a bloody lovely motor you have there :thumb:

I have the C4, it appears to work quite well. Diffuser is another Taiwanese purchase from King Power and I expect some fettling will be required, that'll complete the exterior mods. I just can't find the motivation to fit it when the weather is so crap. Chances are I'll wait for the spring now...

I received my STAR system already and managed to get it set up and working straight away, I spent some time this morning having a play. There is much to learn but overall im really impressed with the depth of functionality offered by the system. I did manage to browse through the stored faults...

Thank you, Yours is lovely too, I would have also gone for a black with tan interior if I could find one, always been a favourite combo of mine. I actually quite like that grill, I find the original grill to be a bit boring and makes the front end a bit dated sad there isn't more options. I've...

Thanks for the kind words, opinions noted on the grill. I knew it was a bit marmite but i had to do something as the original was literally just sat there with nothing bolting it down. There aren't many options for grills and personally I'm not a fan of the original, I think it dates the car. My...

Its come a long way already hasn't it, It is so much better to drive than when I first picked it up and aesthetically im very happy with it and its very nearly done for the exterior mods. Its amazing isnt it how something like the ride height can transform a car, Im thinking the front wheels...

They always do :thumb:

Haha thanks mate, i agree with you, you really need to see it in the flesh to fully appreciate the colour and even then the sun brings the best out of it. So I've been busy with the spanner again and finally got my steering wheel fitted, I order this ages ago and on first delivery it wasn't...

Looks really nice that mate :cool: very similar in design to the one I've had done.

That is EPIC! Always loved these, a local tyre shop owner drives a G63 and thats lovely, this is on another level. Congrats on the new purchase and I bet it sounds incredible :thumb:

That looks awesome! love those black wheels. The LoMo for the SL doesn't come with a remote, it integrates with the CANBUS so almost becomes like a factory feature as the control is integrated into the instrument clusters menu. Proper cool and stealthy, i just hope it drops the car enough to...

Cheers Dan. Car is screaming at me to narrow that arch gap 😆 So I've been quietly researching in the back ground, during my research I happened upon a used LoMo M1 lowering module for the SL55 and after further reading a couple of beers, some man maths a deal was struck! Obviously more expense...

I've seen Tavarish convert his to coilovers, its not something I would do, I think that would be a downgrade and can't see it out performing the ABC system which I quite like. The silver car is lowered on a KW DLC lowering module so an ABC car.

Mine is 700 front and 720 rear. I've no idea if the linked one is on coils, that would be quite rare for an SL55 surely? Thanks mate, well if your over this way just give me a nod. I pass through Preston all the time and use the M55 ALOT! 3D printing is amazing and I've been doing it for...

I'll give them a shout, thanks for that. I think its the angle of the pic's. I think I'll go for a stance similar to this:- https://forums.mbclub.co.uk/threads/my-sl55-amg.266984/page-3#post-2980379 Same wheel and tyre specs and clearly alot lower than mine :thumb:

I did not know that, thanks for the heads up. Is there any conventional wisdom regarding how low to run?

I was thinking of buying a STAR system to help with the ownership issues and servicing and as a side bonus lower the car too, but im not sure it'll lower the car enough for me. I think its going to have to be links to get it sat right which I think will probably be quite low in the lowest setting.

Good lord it needs absolutely slamming!

Cheers for that, I might keep an eye out then for some black plastics and then start trimming the interior. It'd look so much nicer with a alcantara style finish. Thanks mate, not sure I'd like that to be fair but if anyone had some photoshop skills I'd like to see what it would look like...

UPOL tigerseal is awesome stuff, used by body shops and is made for the job. I've used it loads of times before so know it works :thumb:
