Deutschefest preparation on my Mercedes C220 CDI
Discussion
Morning all,
So had abit of free time at work this morning, thought i would share an update on my Mercedes C220 CDI AMG Coupe - In preparation for Deutsche Festival at Brands Hatch next month.
It will be my first time at the show, on the Individual stand for Mercedes with track time on Saturday too.
Anyway, managed to get my downpipe out on Friday and have a new custom 3 inch pipe in place from a mate at Powerflow. We also managed to swap the OE tip and backbox for a straight pipe slashcut tip, for a JDM style look, now await the car booked in to have a second remap this Friday along with water meth injection.

Got abit bored of seeing the same old chrome on outside of the car and felt it was abit grandad style, so decided to spray them all gloss black along with the help of my very generous girlfriend!

Looks tidy, if I remember correctly you've got a hybrid turbo on there?
I wouldn't go much further with cosmetic stuff, would make a great sleeper as most people will assume its sub 200bhp.
Thanks buddy - She does indeed have a hybrid turbo setup under the bonnet.I wouldn't go much further with cosmetic stuff, would make a great sleeper as most people will assume its sub 200bhp.
I did think all black may be over the top, but like you say try not to give the game away too much!
Morning all,
So finally managed to get the car all completed yesterday in preparation for DeutcheFest at Brands Hatch this week.
Installed a fresh set of 20mm rear spacers courtesy of CKS Performance, my newly painted front grill and gloss black alloys too with new centre caps and powdercoated extended wheel bolts.
Also managed to sort my overheating issue by creating a full mesh front grill infront of the Intercooler
