XkRaZiX, stop already! your car is the nicest looking cl even bests the TL (i know the tl is different but i havent seen a TL that comes close) Why didnt you get a CL-S before hookin it up? Even in the cl-p form, i would take your car in a sec. Even the engine bay is the nicest. keep up the good work!
Even though you are far, id love to see the car in real life. ever come down to LA?

Nice. There's a whole lotta polishing going on there 
The SC looks neat all polished up like that. I can only imagine the amount of time that was spent polishing that stuff (I've done a little of that myself, and know what it takes).

Looks very nice. 
Did you consult anyone before plating the SC??
Eaton and Magnuson state that in no way should they be plated. It may hold heat too much causing the aluminum case to warp and the lobes to contact the housing. This can lead a damaged SC and potentially metal pieces entering the engine.

It may be and hopefully so. But considering the ribs on the blower housing are not significantly changed I assumed that was plating. The surface of the blower is very grainy and would require quite a bit of work to polish it and would remove material.

Me thinks that car is more for SHOW then GO.
I don’t think the FUNNY GAS or HAIR DRYER will ever be pushed hard enough to break.
I COULD be wrong though.

Your car is awesome. I thought yours was the one that was stolen and you got a G35 instead. Imagine my surprise reading this thread and seeing your amazing CLS and not a hooked up G35.

Car looks hot man, i'm gonna have to come by and see it in person one of these days. I haven't seen it since it was at the shop a few months back right before the seats went in
