a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
Centurion's 2012 CLS63 AMG
Finally got my digicam back and took some pics.
Palladium Silver/Black + piano black trim.

Paint work was done two weeks ago thanks to Brian at Showroom Motorsports for getting the ball moving on this project.
Sideview mirrors and roof in Gloss black.
Side markers color matched.


Rear lamps lightly smoked.
Chrome trim on trunk painted to color match the body.


Next up:
Satin or gloss black front grill.
Painted calipers (yellow??).
Satin or gloss black window trim.

Nice------- glad to finally see your car.

I think yellow calipers would look good- red on this model car would indicate a PP car...

Love the blacked out roof

Black out the grill and leave the Star chrome (haven't seen anyone do a palladium star). You can always pop out the Star and black it out if you don't like it

Just sayin....


Looks tough!

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Thanks Ted.
It's time for you to get back into an AMG again.

Ironic how the firelane I used for the pics has sooo much 'brush'.

Probably not difficult to install as it looks like a direct swap.
Trying to get one here in the US will take a little more work.
