Mercedes SL/ BMW M3 Fenders

Do any of you know if any one makes SL or M3 style fenders for the Cl?

Please don't. The CL is a beautiful car. Adding such a part will only cheapen the car. Such parts just don't belong. Period.

Think about it: it's like a Mercedes S-class... with custom molded Altezza lights (not like anyone in their right mind would attempt such a thing), a BMW 545i... with a Supra shopping-cart spoiler (yeah right), the new RL... with curb feelers at all four corners. What about Lexus emblems off a GS swapped for Toyota emblems? You get the picture.

You know I put my name on a check every month that says I can do what ever I want to this car. I was just asking if any one made them, not your opinion on what u think would look good on my car.

fender flares and "sl fenders" are two different things. I agree, krazi/essarak both have beautiful bodywork done to their car, but you don't see unnecessary "holes" in their cars that have no functionality what so ever. That is the basis of people saying "this is rice" b/c the holes on the fenders of the SL/M3 would do nothing to the CL but look stupid.

First of all, WHY would you put German parts on a Japanese Car to begin with? If you wanted something creative why not just custom something? IMO, fer you to want to put either m3/SL fenders on the car is just and you should be if you went through w/ it

yes you ask for everyones opinion when you post on this public board, they are trying to help you keep from becomming a laughing stock when you do shitty mods like that to your car... they didnt say you couldnt but you cant expect someone to tell you how to deface something that they love. It would be like asking a mother where their child is so that they could rape it.

Hobo's got a point. Sometimes being nasty get's the point across. Here's just an example of opinions.

Oh, and they sell decals that look like those inserts that you can buy.

Because their fenders are functional in fitting the wheels they have on their cars. Rice is nonfunctional mods to a car that imitate speed/hp/handling/etc.

DG: You posted on a public forum, therefore, you're going to receive public opinions. Isn't that the point

It wouldn't look right cause we don't have large enough front fenders. It would looked cramped and in general, not to good looking.

And yes, posting your ideas on a board like this, you will recieve everyones opinion.

And most mods like that are custom on this car. We don't have a large market of manafacturers to choose our aftermarket parts from.

Going to close this before it turns into an e-brawl
