whats up everyone, so the car has come full circle and is now back to stock, well pretty close, and im using it as my daily. Last May i picked up a 2005 CLK55. I've been working on it since then and have finally finished the first part and have it ready for sema. It will be in the south hall at the NItrofill booth #42213. Pics below:

quick question though, why does the w203 look like it has ML springs? it's sitting pretty 4x4 now, i know they have sport suspensions and are much lower than that.

looks amazing.
Have you considered using the C55's star-less grill? or the rocket bunny ducktail style spoiler? I wonder how wild it would look with the center portion of the diffuser area (between the splitters) being cutout to show off perhaps exhaust work & piping etc (930 WRB style).

Thanks guys!
When i raised the 203 i couldn't find 2005 sport springs to use, so i had to use springs from a 2006 and that's the outcome. I might be picking up 2005 sports springs this weekend though.
Thanks! i have a cf grille, just not sure i want to use it yet. Vorsteiner makes a ducktail spoiler, but i dont think its aggressive enough for this look. Cant really cut out the center portion on our cars, it would just show the spare tire holder.
Thanks guys!

I've always loved the look of the C55 exhaust so i wanted to do something similar, but didnt want to front like i thought i was one. I decided to go with a dual setup. When i saw slvrc230SS setup, i had to have it. This was done at AAA exhaust in LA http://aaaexhaust.com/ It is a universal Magnaflow single inlet, dual outlet, with Mandrel bent custom piping with 2 silverline oval tips.

Remove spare wheel well for bad *** exhaust, then remove back seat and install the custom audio there
