<-- swapped in a UPR k member and coil over kit, really improved the room in the engine bay, saved a ton of weight , i can adjust the ride height , the car goes straight as a string , and it looks tons better then stock !! i've got about a grand in the whole thing ( 700 for the kit , plus new shocks and caster/camber plates )

couldn't you just get a AMG kit from a newer merc and make the parts fit. It pains me to say it but AMG's ride pretty good
