Some quick shots of my wife's 2008 Mercedes C300 (W204)

We bought this car back in January 2011 bone stock and I have posted any pictures of my progress on it.

The day we brought it home

Wow nice work! I'm sure your wife enjoys riding in style!

I don't know how my GF would feel if I took her car and made it my own project =P. She would probably freak after seeing some stuff I've done to my car =D

Wow you completely change the look of the front end, black grille and headlights make it look so mean. So much better than before!

I really dislike this car but you've done it up so nicely, if owned one it would go in this direction. Any exhaust plans, there's a stanced red c350 in my area with an aftermarket quad exhaust that actually looks very nice not sure if it's available for the c300. Sounds mean too.Sorry for the big pic not sure how to re-size.

EDIT: Removed pic to big.

Not going to do anything to the exhaust on this car. This is a car to cruise around in comfort and style without any loud noised like my G. Thanks for the compliments guys

Looks really good Kevin. Is your wife into the car or care about modding it? I always tell my wife I want to do a couple things to her car and she won't let me touch it.
