| Brabus mods look good...I agree though I would go with the Brabus sport springs, I have them, they lower about 1" and no significant ride change..Good Luck

| Thanks for all the nice comments. Just reedit the images moment ago & added couple of photos also. Sorry for making the page skewed. Quote:
Today is my third day with my new ride. Road condition in Malaysia isn't that well. Will need time to get used to it before lowering it. Quote:
We (me & my Brabus sales advisor) were clueless on how to put that thing on. Being too scared to break it, we handed it over to a mechanic to handle it. Obviously he doesn't know the direction. But anyway, nevermind... ![]() Too be honest, I was freaked out on the first & the second day driving my new ride. Lotsa people were looking at my ride & that doesn't happen at all previously while I was driving with my Toyota vios. Besides, the Brabus company in Malaysia even held an event in conjunction with a property company to hand over the key to me in front of journalists & couple invited people. They claimed it their first Brabus sale in 2008 though my car was ordered last year. Of course the photos of me & my car has been publicized on some newspaper. There was lotsa social pressure to handle. ![]() Also yesterday while in a shopping mall, there was a nice gentlemen who parked his car next to me even stepped out & helped me reversing the car ( the parking space was too narrow) while I was about to drive my ride out of the parking lot. ![]() At the same time, his girlfriend was standing in front of the car, staring at me. ![]() Anyway, I'm glad that I finally got my new ride. | ||

| ??? Are you talking about the thingees on top of the hood or the thingees by the 3 pointed star? If on the top of the hood, then reversed, not upside down. I'm confused |

| Upside down areo wings or rather back to front, I was talking to a young lady owner of a silver slk in a car cark outside Glasgow the other day, and her aero wings had been installed by an MB dealer the wrong way round too. Got to wonder what we pay them for. |
