Ever See Hydraulics on a Mercedes Before?

That thing is sick! I only have a 24 volt system so I definitely am not superfast as that car is, but then again my system is meant more for a daily driver and not for hitting combinations. As far as what magazines it is going into, I don`t want to say which yet as I have several possibles, probably ones you have never heard of anyway.

As far as having a VIP style, I certainly think I do, but true VIP enthusiasts would consider it a travesty to call my car VIP, which is fine by me. I like having a car that can appeal to many different people, as well as turn off some people. I like how I can enter my car into Euro shows, Lowrider shows, "VIP" shows, etc. I definitely have a diversified car. And yes, WALD ftw!

I love your setup. Car looks clean.

Close! 348. Search my username on this board and you`ll see that I recently detailed it

This would be my typical ride height. High enough to where I can hit a large dip and not scrape and the right height to where I get no camber wear.

Dude that thing is sick. Are you the one I spoke with on one of the MB forums and had you send me some pics of your car? Did you have a pic where the car was on a bridge over a parking garage?

I had a bagged eclipse(its not a benz) a while back and loved it. I wanted to juice a hardbody but sold it. Paint looks damn good too.

This was my car before we took the baggs off. That was my ride height, just one tap up on the front and two in the back. Man I miss having a bagged ride.

Oh man...was this the pic? Should have picked up that hardbody!

Yeah thats it! You are the one I spoke with, you told me you were getting a wald kit and take some more picks. Looks great.

Thanks man! I`m lovin` the height you`re at with that Clipse! When I was pre-WALD, I used to roll very low as well. Now I need to protect my investment :sosad

This looks way better to me, the first pics were just way too low. I even like the rims. It makes the car look like a tunner version like an AMG or Brabus. And I agree with you on the 1000P on metallics, it looks great.

1000p topped with FX-100 and 425...can`t get any better than that!

No such thing as way too low LOL well thats what I used to say. Now its a bit different, bad back, money for repairing oil pans etc. etc.

This is the HB I use to have. It was just lowered, but I wanted to juice it but sold it before.

This is after the front was raised a bit and the air shocks in the rear had, well, air in them. lol
