Talking Renntech, KW, paintwork done...
Preview pic, will post up more that IND took when I get them hopefully by Monday.

Suspension is great, very compliant, only minimally harsher than the stock nonPP.

Chipped power is ridiculous, have barely tapped into it as I can't hook up well w/ the performance Contis in these temps. Should have my snows this week.

Couple more iphone pics. I put on H&R spacers, 5mm front and 10mm rear, could have gone wider, but it's enough for the OEM setup.

It was our pleasure to work with you on this CLS63! Really happy to hear you are enjoying it.

Should have the rest of the photos for you shortly.

a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
Well done.
You decided not to paint side mirror stands.
Love the Renntech colored badging.

Yeah, I may still do that at some point, not sure yet. Also I may paint the roof rack strip in black, wasn't sure as I didn't know if the A-pillar would look too skinny doing that. Your roof rack strip is still body color right?

Car looks fantastic, you have good taste. The Renntech themed badging in the back is a great subtle touch as well.
