C180 Elegance Pre-facelift

[Maxwell]

Hi Guys

:bannana: :bannana: :bannana: :bannana:

I must say this forum has been great 4 new comers to merc's , I am about to make a move in changing some features of mine now, Just about to get f/r bumper, side skirts and Alloy 16' for the car. Any other suggestion to what to do with the car.
Am just an ordinary guys, DONT want bling bling, Love been quite not screaming. Dont mind some suggestions. and where to get this parts, call for some locking nuts kit £46 + vat. cant believe. They still have not solved my boot rust, just cos of no service history.
I was thinking of changing the following:
Grill
Rear View mirror
Door Sills
Headlight to em Xenon one
:bannana: Not too sure of K & N filter or chipping tho' :bannana:

Thanks

Hi.

Be carefull on K&N filters. Do a search I believe they have been know to kill the MAS. As for chipping I considered it with the 180 but I dont think it is possible on all models depending what ECU you have. Also I was convinced that the power gains would not really be worth the expense.

Standard locking nuts do the job no need to pay MB prices.

Go for the grill for sure If you can get RVM I presume you mean the auto dimming one let me know.

OEM xenons shure some others will put you in the right direction but I personally dont think it would be worth the money.

Bi Xenons are so worth the money

I had my old C180 chipped and fitted a green cotton air filter.
Made a lot of difference.
(Think you can only chip a Bosch ecu though)
