My WALD Mercedes C on Hydraulics
 

So I never did end up with that bagged A4 like I intended. Instead, I ended up with a Mercedes on hydraulics! :tongue:

Not quite finished with the mods yet, but the car is getting there! I'll post a mod list if requested.

Criticism positive and negative is welcome! :thumbsup:

Its very clean looking, just not my cup of tea.

Dont care for the rims, but they are very old school stock mercedes looking.

diggin the not so new benz look w/ vip. kudos 4 originality

Yeah, I've had these rims for almost two years now and I am getting a little bored with them. Not to mention they hide the BBK underneath :whyme:

Next set of wheels will be another JDM wheel: Leon Hardiritt Orden:

Interesting. Not really my cup of tea, but I think it looks pretty cool.

To each his own :shrug:

LOL. The Acura boys don't like the car. It's all good, we all have our own unique styles and tastes! :thumbsup:

+1 not my cup of tea but still clean

Nice VIP, you've done a really good job with it...but like most others, it's not my thing.

looks like a car that would be in the movie Paid in Full.

What "Acura boys" :shrug:

Nice and clean. Never did like hydros, but still looks good. How's the pothole situation in Cali. That car in NY would never make it.

What is it? Looks like a C but maybe it's an illusion ...

Looks nice for that MY, but maybe loose an inch or two on the wheels but have no gap.
:2cents:

See thread title :2cents:

I for one, like it. Nice and clean.

Im diggin it. :cool:

:thumbsup: from me... original shit man

i like it alot.. way to make an older mb look clean as shit

ballin' VIP style

Looks really good, donno i'd stay with JDM rims though....get some HRE's or something :D

BTW, how do cars with air suspension handle? I've always wondered how they corner under pressure vs. a good set of coilovers. I'd imagine worse but you never know...

:werd:

What year/model is that ?? Guy at work has like 2-3 older MB's...

it looks nice, but does it transform?

I think its original and hot!

nice!

love the wald kit!

very clean.... VIP! :thumbsup:

bippu FTW

Well, for starters the car uses hydraulics, not air. The difference is that hydraulics use oil instead of air. While many are unfamiliar with its dynamics, I for one see it as being better. Higher lift, better ride height, and a lower drop.

The car's ride is what can only be called "soft." It essentially floats over bumps. Whether that's your thing or not, as my daily, I wanted my car to still have a lowered look with a "stock" ride height. It's great because I can drive tucking tire all the way around and have a ride equivalent to, or better than stock.

GreenMonster: The car's a 1998 C230.

Thanks to everyone else for the feedback! I didn't intend to build a VIP-inspired car. I rather built the car to my liking, which happened to follow the VIP look. You will not however ever see my car with curtains :tongue:

i think those of us who say it's not our cup of tea is because we are old :)
i like it for what it is...but not my cup tea :p

edit: i love wald kits....and i like the VIP style

looks great!

I'm liking it.....a lot! Great job, very clean. And the pics are nice too :thumbsup:
