Depends on how do you want your car to be. If you want to modify it so that you can track it, then you should upgrade your suspension and brakes. For cosmetic mods, perhaps you can get the AMG F1 Steering wheel and the complete Carlsson quad exhaust.

more info on the exhaust, the car is mostly cosmetic, it's a daily driver to work and back

For info on the qaud exhaust see this thread:

http://forums.mbworld.org/forums/sho...threadid=31626

As of this moment only the MH Dezent unit is confirmed to be available. The Carlsson unit is due any day. Oberklasse in Texas (oberklasse.com) can help with both and if you mention you are a member of this club you can get a discount.

Personally, I'm waiting to sse what Carlsson has to offer before I buy anything.

Keep an eye on that thread for more info.

With regard to other mods, have you seen any of the aero kits or wheel and tire packages? Some nice looking stuff from Lorenzin, Carlsson and others. Oberklasse can help you with that also, but there are other suppliers also. Look through the various threads to see what has worked for others.

Good Luck!

i like the wheel / tire setup i have right now.

as for the quad exhaust, won't i need a new rear bumper with the cutout for the 2nd exhaust. where can i find this bumper?

Ferrariman · 08-11-2003, 11:01 AM

With regard to the bumper, you can either have your existing bumber cut out or buy one that will match the exhaust you choose, i.e. Carlsson makes a bumper just for their exhaust.

My preferance is to have the existing bumper cut out (as in the photo's of the other thread) and use AMG tips for an authentic factory look.

Good Luck.
