- In this video, I install a gloss black front splitter lip, gloss black side skirt extensions, and gloss black rear bumper extensions from Maxton Design USA on my 2016 Mercedes W205 C300 Sport (also fits C43). Came out awesome!

God !!!! thank you so much for this video and the description Flexx !!! Been looking everywhere for these. Did found a lot of interesting pieces but did not like it until I watch this :D ended up watching everything that you did on this car from the beginning !!
Nice!! 😎🤙🏼
@@TheFlexxGarage I barely got a c300 2020 and decide to stick with it instead of the c43 :D and probably getting most most or all of the stuff u done to your mercedes.
Well at least I now know that I have the luxury edition 😭😂 thanks for the info
samee lol Wish it fit our cars
Bruh same
Same thing I said
Damn rich people convos I wish I could be apart of that😂
I have the sport amg line
I truly need to have this in my life I need to do the same thing to my C 300 I had it for a while now I’ve been wanting to turn it into something more right now it’s just stock it is driving me crazy it is time help me keep making more of these so I could learn how to transform my plane Mercedes into my dream car thank you keep up the good work
Been waiting for this vid for awhile!!!
me too. Had these sitting in my garage for months. Finally slapped them on and so glad I did!
Ordering for my c400 . Thanks Flex !
I love that Maxton kit on that car. It's subtle and looks great.
Yeah. I love it. Definitely subtle but changes the way the car look over stock.
I just ordered this splitter today. this is the only one outta all I've seen (that you also had done), that I like. Thanks for the vid man. When you're in Avon or Stoughton, hit me up. I'm in Mass too.
Nice job Flex. You always do classy work.
I appreciate that!
I have this mod on my GLC 43 and it looks awesome. Great vid!
Nice work Flexx
Awesome video, car looks great! I've got a roof spoiler from Maxton for my E400 Wagon. Now I'm thinking about ordering this entire kit for the Wagon.
@@TheFlexxGarage Thanks for the advice. I had a cheap Aliexpress 3 piece front splitter on the car and it looked great, but I installed it before winter (I'm in NYC) and I don't even know when I lost the middle part of splitter during one of the Nor'Easters lol.
Wanna know something funny why I went Maxton but didn’t mention in the video? I had a 3 piece from eBay as my 2nd splitter. I drove it in the snow and I hit a small pile of snow that wasn’t shoveled and half of my splitter ripped off. Mainly the center. So I haven’t had a splitter on the car for months until I got the Maxton. I only had rear bumper extensions on and they look soooo out of place with no other ground effects on the car. I’m glad I have 1 kit that’s consistent in look and feel on the car now.
@@TheFlexxGarage lol I think we had the same splitter and we got rid of it the same way. I actually got it from eBay too. It's the rear diffuser (E63 style) that I got from Alliexpress for my E400 Wagon.
Great kit. Rear bumper extensions looked goofy at first but man, it really looks good on the car. Also i like that the pieces aren't too thick/fat, doesn't seem to eat up too much clearance space. . I have a W204 and i just put on the "god hand" front bumper lip... It should be called a Jay Z lip cause that thing is fat af.
The godhand was my first splitter on my c250 like 4 years ago on my UA-cam channel. I liked it.
Hey blow you doing ,, I’m trying to find the parts for c300 2018 and I can’t find them
eBay. Go search your car year and model and see if that part you are looking for is shown installed on a same looking cars as yours. There’s no 1 place for parts for your car. You need to do the leg work and look around.
DAMN that looks amazing
I’m pretty happy with the results. I don’t think I’ve seen another c300 or c43 with this kit running around in my area. They only have a lip and diffuser but no side skirt extensions or rear bumper extensions.
@@TheFlexxGarage When are we getting more Audi A4 content?!
You get it when you get it. The A4 is not going away. Lol. If you subscribe, then you have nothing to worry about but just be on the lookout for them.
@@TheFlexxGarage Sounds good 👍🏽
Got this kit coming tomorrow for my C220D!
What size self tapping screws used? Also the torque ratchet was able to drill them through the kit and car?
That looks really nice
I love them. I’m always looking at the car now.
Love watching ur vids, it gives me a chance to see what my C300 4matic sport would look like b4 I spend the $$$
That’s why I do it. 😎🤙🏼
Great video Flexx. What length of self tap in screws did you use for the front splitter instead of the bolts?
This kit looks so clean and mean on your car. Do you have any videos/links on how you setup that rear diffuser on this car with the quad tips? I see you have one video up but not sure if it’s the same car? Your videos are great 🙌🏽
There’s only 1 w205 c300 on my channel and only 1 diffuser video for this car on my channel. You’ll find the video with a basic search.
Nice, looks great.
Thanks
Hey flexx I just wonder if those parts fix on c300 2019 ? You car looks beautiful good job 🙏
Can’t. 2019 sport package c300 has a different front bumper but for the sides and back, it will work. You need to check with Maxton design before you buy.
I love the new intro👌🏻
haha...that's been the intro for all my W205 and A4 videos. The R8 Vlog intro is the different one.
@@TheFlexxGarage I am sooorry, my memory can tend to slip😅 but on another note, the aero really gives the car much more sharp lines. I’m personally not the biggest fan of the w205, I just think they look more round but everyone has their own cup of tea and I’d love to try yours one day
I have a c300 luxury and wanna do the same mods you did on your engine will it work with the c300 luxury ( it’s a 2017 w205)
Yes it looks much better good job
Love 💕 it. Rear bumpers.
Nice video as always. Hey, wanted to ask for the rear extensions did you put some self tapping screws into the rear diffuser or just the side rear panel of the car??
Self tapping for side and rear
I love it too
Was just going to ask if they ship to Canada so I can put this on my C400 (2015), but I think the comments already answered no to that :( I’ll have to look into this a bit more, this is such a nice kit.
Looks awesome I have a 17 C43 and I’m about to order it all for my car! I noticed you used double sided tape and the screws do the screws mess up any of the original body?
The screws go underneath so its just small hole that you're never gonna see
I love your videos, you are very cool❤️😍
man, imagine how badass it would look if it was white and matched your paint!!!!! still looks cool though
I don’t know about that but I did see someone do a white pin strip all along the edge of the ground effects and it looks pretty dope.
@@TheFlexxGarage Yea, thats sweet, I own a 2014 C300/W204 I guess some call it??? Anyways you did a sweet video called "Installed A Large ANDROID SCREEN on a 2012 - 2014 C300" I'm sure, Well I've tried to contact that link, anyways I'd just first of like to know about how much that screen ran and kit ran you, 2nd if It's within reach I'd love to get one myself. that is Dope!!!
Hey Flexx you should do a series where u let subs submit pictures of their modded cars and you rate them. Maybe do 3 a video and ask us to rate the best of the 3 in the comment section. Could get some good engagement from those videos
It’s actually an idea I’ve toyed with a few years back but decided not to do. I’m not really one to judge peoples cars and I don’t really wanna put peoples cars on blast. The internet is a terrible place and trolls are everywhere. I can deal the idiots (since they trash my videos all the time) but some people can’t so I don’t even wanna open that can of worms. It’s really not worth it to me or them.
Cool watch bro what is it
Hey Flexx! Do the side skirts block the rubber lift points? Thank you!
Looks really nice when do you think the next Audi vid will be out I’m excited to see the mods.
Whenever I decide to make one. Lol.
I have the c350e sport but my bumpers are showing as luxury?
Looks grrrreat bro 👍..
Hey Flexx did u change your trunk trim from gloss white to black? And also did u change your exhaust tips back to chrome? I remember you doing a video for both
Go watch my trunk light bar video. The tips are still gloss black but the black paint kinda wore off.
Great vid, Question bro those little fins you have just above your front lip on both sides. Where did you get those? Do you have a vid on installation of those? thanks and greetings from Ireland!
I did a video on it. It’s on my UA-cam channel.
🔥 needs to be lowered now !!
I would love to for the looks but not gonna happen . Roads are trash and I’m on 19’s with low pro tires. The ride is already harsh. On top of that, lowering the car with screw with the camber. There’s no reasonable camber correction kit specifically for this car. A simple alignment won’t work cause if only fixes toe. A camber kit plus install is another $2000. And still need to add in the cost for the lowering coil-overs as well. It’s way too costly to lower this car, IMO.
@@TheFlexxGarage people seem to have very good luck with H&R springs
I have them on my Audi A4. The shocks and struts will wear down quick because they aren’t designed to work with an aftermarket lowering spring , the camber will get worse and the inside of all 4 tires will just get chewed up. For the Audi, there is a camber kit to correct it but as I stated before, there’s only 1 kit for the c300 and it’s stupid expensive.
I’m all set. Not spending $4000 just to lower the car, and then have to replace stuff much quicker cause they will take a beating on the junky roads in my area. And on top of that, comfort is gone cause it’s gonna be a rough ride quality. My car is not a show car, and I don’t go to meets with it. It’s a car I use to go get groceries and to stores and go on long distance drives. I rather put the $4000 into other mods or keep it in my pocket.
Nice add ons, just don’t try racing a c43 tho☠️
I’ll probably still win cause I’m a better driver. 🤣
Your watch looks nice, what's is it?
Will it fit on a luxury 2011 c300? Or is there any that fit on one please let me know asap🙏🏽
No. It’s hard to find any for the luxury models regardless of model year.
Love mercedes
Any sunwarping on those sideskirts ? Looks sick
Nope. Still going strong on all pieces. Only issue I had was cracking the front lip cause I smashed into a curb. #UserError
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hi Flexx. Did you drill a hole under the car or just straight doing the screws?
As seen in the video, they are self tapping screws.
@@TheFlexxGarage thanks for the reply mate
Hey flex, I have a 2017 Mercedes Benz C300 and I wanted to know why your rear fender/bumper looks different than mine or even the stock 2016 C300, yours has a air vent on both sides of it making it look way cooler, would you PLEASE let me know how you got it to look like that or where I can find that fender/rear bumper for my car? Thanks a lot in advance!
Because I have the c300 sport. And you probably have the c300 base/luxury. Different front bumper and rear bumper from factory.
He got the sports package
Where can you find that black diamond grill I have a c43 😓
Dont really know. My sponsor stop assorting the black diamond grille. Ebay and Amazon would be your best bet.
I have the luxury edition unfortunately😔😂 really hard to find parts like these
I went to their website and they have it for your car. Go to "W205 C-Class Standard". In that section, they have a wagon on there but it's the same front bumper as the W205 luxury model. I'm not sure about the sideskirts/diffuser though.
@@TheFlexxGarage its not that easy in germany, you need registrations and all that shit
Then you are kinda outta luck regardless what car you have. I make videos for the US market so I can only speak to US cars, US companies, and US rules.
I got a question when you drilling the front lip to the bumper, does our bumper have a hole too? or you just drill pass through the bumper through the front lip hole?
Bumpers don’t come with holes. You need to drill into it.
Hey Flex, how long did it take for these to arrive when they were shipped? I am in New York
Took awhile. They are on back ordered. Shipments from overseas are slow moving right now.
Flexx I got some 3 piece sideskirts extensions but they don't sit straight because the w204 are slightly curbed what should I do?
Can’t do much. I think you got the universal ones I’ve seen on eBay. Those only work if the bottom edge of your oem side skirts are literally flat.
Hey bro I love your vids and I have a 2020 C300 sport and was wondering if I buy the regular C43 lips and skirts or the C43 sport lip and skirts?
Not sure. That’s a question for Maxton design.
2020 c-class is slightly different then the pre facelift 2016-2019 c-class.
Okay will do thanks
@@TheFlexxGarage
Not sure about the drilling into my car you think the 3m would be enough to hold ?
Not enough. Only other option is super strength body panel adhesive glue.
Hey flexx, ive been following you're page for a while but have never commented on them till now. Just want to say most of your diy videos are always dark. Would be nice if you got more lighting to make things clearer.
I don’t know. Over 4 years, I’ve never had anyone (millions of viewers) say anything about the darkness.
Hey flexx, I have had a problem with my 2014 c250 where when I push it a little and it goes over 6500-7000 rpms the car loses power and throws itself into limp mode and turns on the check engine light. After a couple times of turning the key and starting it the check engine light turns off. It’s been bothering me for a while because I like to have fun with me car, I’m not sure what it could be or if it mean it’s a big problem. Help would be much appreciated please and thank you!
ua-cam.com/video/-sbr28Zbofs/v-deo.html
hey, where did you buy the flaps for the rear bumper and how did you install them?
Flaps? What “flaps”.
Maybe you’re talking about this. Go watch this video in full. ua-cam.com/video/N3zLGIPdBuM/v-deo.htmlsi=0lbH2V-fyTQco7bA
I assume this fits 2015 C220d AMG too?
good job Flexx, I have a C350e here in England, can you recomend any upgrades.
Catless downpipes, straight pipe, and a tuen
On their website is the c class w205 standard same as w205 base pretty much
Its just the same but without AMG, the AMG line changes the bumpers and adds a splitter
how do you lift the car up now, since the sideskirts dont look like you can open the little doors at 6:17 ?
The same way I’ve always lifted it. Using the lift points on the pinch welds that’s behind that “door” by like an inch or 2.
I never use that jacking point inside that door.
@@TheFlexxGaragequick answer, i appreciate that :)
Sorry for the wrong term, german viewer here, I was talking about the little lids, too.
It just looks like the sideskirts overlap with those plastic lids and i wonder how u remove them then.
Hey Flexx, how are you. Can this kit fit my w205 sport without amg package?
As long as your bumpers look like my bumpers
Hello Flexx, I been watching you now going on 6-7 months. So I'm trying to do your upgrades. I need a new set of wheels and tires. I want the spoke style but my car rims only have 5 buttons. E500
Will this fit on the 2016 luxury version?
No. Only sport C300 which has a front bumper, side skirts, and rear bumper like a C43.
I have a 2016 E-400 W207 Mercedes cabriolet. I've already done several mods, I'm looking for complete ground affects kit for the car just like this. Can you point me in the right direction...
Check out the link in the description and see if there’s maxton parts for your car. If not, eBay will have stuff if your car is popular as a modifiable platform. PLenty of stuff for C-class but not sure about your E.
is the c300 sport and c300 luxury have anything diffrent engine wise?
Same turbo 4cylinder engine (if you are talking the US spec).
I live in canada and they do not ship to where I live. Can someone grab it and have it shipped for me?
What car do you have? Make and model and year?
Hey flexx! I am in Canada and is they ship to CA ?
You need to check their website or email them. I don’t know.
Looks great Flex and yes, as a C43 owner I’m jealous lol. I’d like to ad these same mods to mine
Haha. It’s def a joke. But yeah, I love these. Tons of people asking me all the time where I got them.
looking like a type r now lol
More like a type badass
no c43 amg is jealous of a c300 💀
Suuuuure. I can sense the jealousy in that comment. Lol
You should add a custom exhaust
In the works
@@TheFlexxGarage I suggest a cobra exhaust system, they are based in the uk and they are very reputable
Lmao. Just sold my c43. This kit looks awesome though.
I do love it. Wish I had it on a c43 than a c300 but what they hey…it is what it is.
where did you get that c63 style rear?
eBay I think. I already did a video on it awhile back.
anyone know if this fits the same model, just the coupe version?
go to their website...they have a listing for the coupe
Two questions, do you have a link of this product? And does it fit into a 2017 c43?
As mentioned in the video, look in the description. Compatibility is on their website. The kit on my car was designed for a 2016-2018 c43 sedan.
No discount codes?
sorry, I don't. These parts are a great value already compared to other stuff in the market. And alot of the stuff from MaxtonDesign is unique as well. You won't find it anywhere else. I think they are definitely worth it when you see it on your car.
Doesn’t look like these are available until the late fall
if I were you, I'd place a preorder if you really want it. The entire aftermarket car industry is backlogged. And if these come in faster (alot of times they do), you will be in line to get yours first instead of waiting until they are available. Took me like 6 months to get my carbon wing for my R8 and that was a different company (not maxton). My maxton parts didnt take that long.
I love it bro please help me out I have a 2016 c450 amg and I want to make the sound deeper but not loud how can I do it ?
does this fit a 2016 merc c300?
On the c300 sport and c43. Not the c300 base/luxury.
@@TheFlexxGarage how do i know if i have the c300 sport or base luxury?
Come on…hahaha…It’s literally explained in the video at the 1:25 mark.
@@TheFlexxGarage aaaah you right my bad flexx thank you for responding brother ✊🏾😂
Can I still order this?
Yeah. Go to Maxton design’s website.
Nice and delicious, life is too short to drive a ahitty car
So true!
Will the kit fit the 2021 sedan C300?
Yes if you have a c300 sport and not the base/luxury spec.
Looks cool nice try, but it won’t drive like a real Amg c43
This video is not about drive experience. It’s about looks. So in terms of looks, yeah, c43 owners will be jealous.
@@TheFlexxGarage ignore the haters
Please paint or change your wheels. Car looks to good to have basic AMG wheels.
The car isn’t done.
The color difference looks weird
Thanks
Yep and meet a 43 at a stop light then you will see who is who
Hahaha. Yeah. I see my car looks way better while I see a stock c43 that looks plain.
Hopefully most c43 owners aren’t simple minded and is not a dumb driver who thinks they are better than me just cause their cars slightly faster. I also see that I’m smarter as well cause they will attempt to race me and probably either get pulled over (and cited for an expensive ticket) or crash into innocent people cause they are dumb, trying to be better than another car by illegally racing in public streets.
So yeah, I saw what I saw. A cool c43 owner is one who respects other peoples builds. A dumb c43 owner is one who still has a childish brain that thinks racing in the streets is the way to prove you are better than someone else.
Idk about slightly they look the same but ones 255hp and one 385hp base and 450 performance tuned from Mercedes so I get the cheap mods and it’s cool but jealous I know damn well I’ll take my 3.0L v6 twin turbo with amg exhaust over any lower end c class it’s either the c43 or c63 in my book now if u can’t afford that that’s cool but don’t say we’re jealous no tf we’re not we could care less just like u build this shot outta that car and have fun but stay in ur lane still each car has its lane just like at the track they got a class.
@@davidbohner7213bro he has a r8 though 😭
Hahaha. It’s cool. People on the internet think that just cause a UA-camr shows a car on UA-cam…that car shown is their only car. When really all their cars shown on UA-cam is purely for entertainment and bought for the purpose of showing people mods and to make money. While my real garage has my own collection of cars.
you ruined it
Nope. I disagree since it’s been a few years and 99.99999% of people tell me it’s awesome and makes my car look way better compare to the oem c300 cars on the streets. A bunch even ask me in person where to get the kit. So yeah, it’s not ruined.
