New hood and wheels/tires and it would't be too bad. I love it when someone advertises hp ratings but doesn't give dyno charts.

Agree. Not loving the wheels. The grills with all that chrome, looks like trying too hard. The front lip, if you look at other close ups, seems to have gaps and separations. The hood scoop seems a little much, but I have seen a lot worse, higher profile that just looks awful -- that specific hood scoop on a black CL55 would likely not be as obvious. I thought I would never like the chrome trim around the headlights, but looks nice in this case.

Car has some good mods but I think its over the top in Design etc. Not my cup of tea. The closer to stock looking you are the bigger the surprise. lol

AndreNY -- very very funny, seriously!

I know you know what you're doing, so I didn't doubt anything you wrote, until I got to the stereo, lol!
