haha...yeah, I thought the same...

I started reading the thread...I read about getting a bodykit...then I looked up at who wrote it...and I thought, is he going mad???

Then i clicked on the pic and I realized it was for a freaking MB...nice choice.

Oh, and nice dad...

http://www.lorinser.com has a good kit

of course you already found this: http://www.brabus.com/

so you think your dad can let me drive it sometime???

Amir,
Beleive it or not I saw Shawn Kemp about a month ago and he was driving an S class with a kit very similar, I am sure it had to be the same one, and it looked horrible. O'kay maybe horrible is an overstatement but it was deffiantely to much.

Just get the factory Sport package as mentioned above......it looks just as good, if not better than any aftermarket kit. The Sport package on the CL in white is incredible looking. If you want to bling the wheels, just have the AMGs chromed.

Chrome on a white CL-5 looks a little tacky IMHO. I like the kits Zapata posted though. Those look HOT.

Amir, you're not gonna get those rims and any of those body kits for 10k....especially if you're talking CDN....

but I would say just get the stock kit, and chrome the AMG 19s.

Why not something more highbrow than "bling" anything?

1CL2NV would be sweet. Doesn't sound so childish.

Hey Amir: Maaaad Props for the new ride. It'll look awesome with 20's and a kit. Nice color too. But one thing: Why didn't you guys look into the new SL? They both have 2 doors, so I don't think practicality is a problem? Will your pops need a backseat? Anyways I say get the SL!!! The design is fresher than the CL
IMO.
Whatever, both rides are phat as hell. I was just curious as to why not the SL.

do not get the BR5s or the Lorinser or Brabus kits.

all are played on benzs. every other fucking benz has the same setup... you may as well go stock its just as common.


like jeremy said... go with the stock SPORT kit. it looks better then the aftermarket options. slims down the look of the CL... the aftermarket kits make it look too tall... too jacked... and too much like a boat.


Wheels? Go with one of these new Carlsson joints.

















they are the hottest option without a doubt.

carlsson is the BEST benz tuner for aesthetics... they make some really tasteful and classy stuff.


dont go for some ghetto rims or ghetto kit. you dont want your dad rockin the ghetto mongral look and im sure both you and your pops dont want to look like new money.

get something classy, tasteful, yet still HOT AS FUCK and suitable to such a hot car.

as i said, i believe my choice is best.


and please pass on the gay ass license plate. go alphanumeric or something, something that doesnt make too much of a statement and isnt so easy to remember.

dont want every fucker with an attitude and a cell phone being able to remember your plate number.

to each his own.

but your yet another person whose taste in wheels I do not trust..... mr M wheels lol


i think those Carlssons not only LOOK hot but they are also hot because they are lighter and stronger then conventional alloys due to the design and that they are forged.

they are 50% lighter the conventional alloys. yet look DOPE at the same time.








I just feel as tho a car of that stature shouldnt just have any ol wheel.

and yes, while Lowenharts are hot... every single benz on the planet is rollin on a set. I know 6 people with Benzs and Lowenharts just myself.... sooooooooo played. Hot, yes. But PLAYED.

Admir..you're gonna need more the 10k for a nice kit and rims. My friend just brought the same car but in black. He got the barbus kit and carlsson wheels. Came out to be around 15k and thats with the slr side fenders.
