Carlsson aero kits arrived !!!

Three pcs of them arrived,they're spoiler, rear bumper & front lid.
still waiting for the AMG side skirts & front bumper to make
it completed.

Check the clearance for the exhaust tips, 220mm max
that is AMG55 oval tips are too wide to fit and need some smaller round tips instead.
The spoiler is a large pcs cutting along with the chrome trim.




The killer view of Carlsson CLS ! IMHO
wait the AMG bumper to close it.

Love the spoiler and rear bumper, not too big on the front bumper but I bet it will look better once I can see your pics. Congrats!

Thanks, guys.
Will post pics once AMG oval tips are on.

I found one from Japan & ready to ship here.
After calculating the width, they're 220 mm in twin
If well control the gap in between, they fit the Carlsson bumper. :p

Gentlemen :

Pls check this pretty SLR spoiler, hard to see it in distance.




Black CLS with black spoiler looks even invisible.
So I decide to paint it in brilliant silver
made it a good contrast & obvious to see backwards.
Yes, only the central segment between those oval tips
is in silver paint.

Any comment ?

Pickup the car this afternoon.
Wife drove it home and I followed her to see the rear look.

Any CLS with quad oval tips look like CLS55AMG,
though Carlsson kits are much different in design,they look
alike in distance.

The silver paint underneath works !
or it'll be too dark to see anything special out of this fancy bumper.

i love the 030 bumper style on the SL65, but im not sure the vents in the front work well with the CLS. They look a little too sporty IMO, but im still debating. Good suggestion though...

DC Taiwan sold it at close to $960,000

Sat in a CLS55AMG finally & started the engine.
The roar of V8K is sweet
American spec, bottle holders, speedo in miles.......
with a crazy price $215,000 but it has been sold.

Is Carlsson very popular in Taiwan? Here in Germany they are gettin more and more in the focus of customer's interest.

Tenza,

I was hoping to pick that up in HK since I will be there from 12/14 to 1/3. I might travel to Taipei while I'm there. Maybe I can pick up a set and bring it back to you from Taiwan...
