i think some gold forged wheels would be nice.
also think your car is worthy of a KLEEMANN Kompressor

Brunelleschi

actually...on the wheels i am thinking black witha polished lip...and maybe painting the roof gloss black..give it the pano look without the pano.

Kleeman? Do they make a kit for the 240?

rlee02135

yes sir! you just have to be willing to shell out $10k

Brunelleschi

it seems like i have heard about it before now that you mention it. If i remember right...it is 10K for like 50 extra hp...i think if i want the hp that bad...i will get a different car

This one is just built to look pretty and sound good(loud)

Dude no offense but those are the ugliest rims I have ever seen on a Benz EVER. LOL

But yeah projectors, 10K Hid head and fog lights, CL grille and flat hood emblem but thats just what i would do with a grand.

But rims first. JK

Brunelleschi

douche!






not doing the CL grill and flat emblem though...i like the star and also for shows and stuff i cover the car at night with a cover supplied by my dealership...and with no star...there would be nothing to fill the reservior tip at the end

9 posts and you say something like that? you will last a long time around here! even if you think they are ugly his car has trophies, does yours?

I saw a guy who replaced the stock plastic piece with mesh like this on his stock CLK front bumper and it looked hot..

Does anyone know where I could pick up some mesh like this in socal? Maybe home depot?

yeuchau

you obvious didn't read his post
he said that was a sponship thing, and he is working on new rims

Brunelleschi

i got mine from a trailer parts place. they had tons of different types of raw metal product. i imagine you could probably find something similar at home depot though..probably just not as big of a selection


thanks for the support on that one guys. I actually have some really really sharp 19" ADR M-Classics that I think are gorgeous wheels on this car...they need to be refinished though. I don't know where locally to get that done yet, but as soon as I find a place....and find a way to get them from here to there (can't haul them in my car) I will get that in progress.

First of all i read the post and i was joking and i realize that you dont have a sence of humor (ctC230K and yeuchau) and Brunelleschi realized i was joking so if im not talking to you dont respond.

How did you attach the mesh ?

Brunelleschi

i picked up a package of cable tie brackets from home depot....the ones with a flat base and a slot through which you can put a zip tie. These brackets come with double-sided tape adhered to them, but i don't trust the tape under a car given the temperature ramps and all of the drit and crap. I used some adhesive remover to take the tape off, and adhered the brackets to the inside of the bumper with epoxy. You can see that the mesh was shaped such that it fits around the opening on the inside the bumper. There are about a dozen of those brackets epoxied to the bumper. I used zip yies to secure the mesh. Viola! Very secure and 100% removable

Cool , thanx. I'm thinking of the same type project - to eliminate the front piece on my spoiler.Looks good Adam.
