Proven Guilty

Hey guys, I'm looking to get exotic on a W208 project car. Not quite Penske remote adjustable shocks exotic.. but in that direction :D
I've been trying to do some homework, and check with various tuning shops as well as use what applied knowledge I have with the W202 suspension.
I'm currently under the impression that the W202 and W208 share the same underbody, perches, and suspension design as the "Face-lift" W202 models. Also, both cars share a lot of parts from the big bother E-class W210 model.
I'm looking to buy an H&R cup kit from a club202 member, that was designed for a W202, and I intend to use them on a W208. Aside from possible weight differences between a 4cylinder and 6cylinder model - can anyone confirm that the suspensions are identical for fitment? I'm also going with Lensolo's new stainless steel camber arms, and might actually buy two sets for more adjustability with the rear-end link suspension brace so I can have the car cornered when doing the alignment.
Per Renn208, the club202 admin in an older post; the C43 and CLK do have the same suspension...
