Why you need chrome. (Photographic Evidence) :D
this is the drop I am currently riding on... still get a rub now and then on big bumps or with passengers.
trimming inner fenders is how i will fix...
I also took some pics of this car next to my red CLS on Comptechs too... I'll post them later for comparisons purposes.
but fuck the drop... LOOK AT ALL THAT CHROME!
uh huh... uh huh...

Wow Soopa, that looks awesome. The 235's look so much nicer on 19s than my tires, but I didn't have a choice. If you do a lot of driving keep an eye on the inside of the front tires. I've already warn through half my tread due to camber issues. There's no way we can fit a camber kit either or the front will rub. Anyhow, it's nice to see someone else on the forum with good taste!

Car looks too tight soopa, chrome does kick ass, especially on black. Did they slow u down much?
How did you park your car on that TL so perfectly.

Looks good man, I like it a lot. Good rim sizing too, I like how they sit flush with the fender. Just pull that fender liner out and get those fenders rolled when springtime comes around. Then you can really slam the shit out of it. I agree with the spoilerless look though, keep it as is unless a lip spoiler comes out. IMHO the stock spoiler kills the body lines. Props man, I really like.

They look really GREAT Adam. 
The pessimistic side of me has to ask this question.
Is it possible to drive the car with 2 or 3 passengers along without looking like one of those episodes of COPS ???
You know the one where the car is leaving behind a shower of sparks because he is driving on the RIMS.
Like I said, I LOVE the look, but if that was my car I don’t think I could have made my road trip to Florida with the wife and a full load of cargo in the trunk.
And when I head to the beach in the summer I usually have a ton of crap and 2 or 3 cases of BEER in the trunk.

BUT... that is why they are ADJUSTABLE coil-overs.
if your planning something like a heavy load for a trip... it takes all of 2 minutes to adjust the height to where you want it to be.
