Cls550
JUST BOUGHT 2012 Cls550

hey there everyone my name is Lasha, I am from Toronto, ON. Just sold memg 750hp coupe BMW 135i and came into Mercedes world.

I am very new to this forum and to the mercedes benz world. i just purchased 2012 Mercedes benz cls550 with 148000 km on it. The car is very clean, Black on Black AMG package. I have couple of questions since i am already thinking to “modify” the car.
1. I want to take of the rear stock diffusor and change it with an agressive one that can have space for quad tips. can you guys please give me any link or a company that has a product ? Agressive diffusor with quad tips.
2. i want to change the front fenders since mine has the side marker lights and i want to change it as Cls63 has with V8 Biturbo badges, Also if i change just the fenders, do i have to change the front bumper too? Because im not sure but i think they might be wider. or if you guys know anyone selling a conversion fenders with just the badges, please let me know where i can get them from.
3. Also i looked into these m278 engines and they are pretty resourceful regarding hp/tq gains. I looked into Renntech, Eurocharged , Weistec. Renntech and weistec pretty much offer the same gains but the price for Renntech is almost double as much as weistec. Eurocharged canada doesnt give you as much horses as these two above.

can you guys please suggest me these products and give me some information about those cars and engines in general. it will be very much appreciated. thanks in advance.

WheelsRims are a matter of preference and taste, so many to chose from. I'm sure other members will post ideas and suggestions. Personally my E63S 2016, built to my specs is still bone stock. So buying rims/wheels I have no need. I have no desire at this time to modify my E63S. I recommend you enjoy your new ride for a while, take it in before seeking your endeavors on the CLS550.

Hello, Nice car Bavarian! I just got myself a cls63amg and its an absolute beast. I was going to recommend going with renntech since they are a proven company for tuning. But check out Alpha (OR AMS) performance @ https://www.amsperformance.com/cart/...-v8-tune.html/ For only about $2400, you get pretty much a cls63 power. I don't think you need to over tweak an already beautiful car. Just get some CLS style badges, Defintely the AMG rims, a nice carbon fiber spoiler, then darken the tail lights a bit. Then you are all set!

We have downpipes in stock for the CLS550. Give me a call or PM me for pricing on these. They are NOT the same downpipes as the ones for the CLS63.

Nice ride and let the mods begin.

M157 cold air intake will wake the CLS550 up and easy as changing filters to install.

Nice ride. I own a 2012 CLS 550 also and I did the CLS 63 conversion. I switched the rear diffuser and added quad tips. I added a carbon fiber Renntech spoiler, lowering kit, 20 inch staggered wheels, ECU tune, muffler delete, and brake upgrade. Photos attached...

From what ive seen on the CLS63 eurocharged canada makes siginficantly more power (especially torque to the wheels) than the other tunes. Not sure if for the CLS550 maybe they dont have a stronger stage 2 tune for it like they do for the 63 m157 cars.

2016 CLS S-Model
Just bought a 2014 CLS63 S-model

Pix soon. From a '14 E63S to a '19 C300 Cab to a '14 CLS63S... I know the wife is going to like the CLS better than the E. She always said it looked like a Honda from behind.

A black 2014 CLS. What were the black finish options (colors) in 2014?

Fenders and bumper for the CLS550 are different than the CLS63. The AMG 63 version has wider fenders and a slightly wider bumper. Swapping the fenders to the 63 version will require getting the bumper, and the LED lights for the 63 as well. Not really sure if it would really be worth the investment, might be cheaper to just find a used 63 for the right price and get that much more car.
