+1. Sorry dude. I like the blacked out badges but I probably would have kept your outer rims silver and just done the centers black. to me just looks like somethings wrong with the color contrast and I also agree its way too low Gringo.

i prefer the wheels before paint as well, but i like everything else... including the drop, it sits perfectly!

I preferred the old look better as well. It's the rims and lowering...does not do it for me. Love the Blacked out emblems! IMO though.

06 CLS55 w/ P030, 05 Jag S Type R, 05 TBird-68 Dodge Charger R/T-440 w/4speed I'm original owner
looks good but not exactly my taste.
On the white and gray--should have gone with the clear side marker lens.
I would be concern about the extent of lowering. Like to hear from you guys in about six months if it works out ok.
Like the black piano top on the white one. Very sexy.
Very impressive shot of 3 cls in front of the restaurants. Looks like your on Sunset Blvd.

I would be curious to know the age group of those of you who think the car is too low. And for the guy who thinks the clear side marker would have looked better ahahahhhhaaaaaahhahaha
Yellow Calipers are reserved for P-cars and F-Cars??? WTF
I could be wrong, but many of you opted for the ELM, and cant get your cars to sit as low as Auktanes car, and instead of giving him props, you call him a Gringo. Thats LMAO material.

but regardless of age, that car is low(in the rear), Cant see much of a debate there.Matter a fact- Im curious to know the age group of the people who worked/designed the car To lower it to the point where its not practical and somewhat lookin like a rice rocket. Sorry the color scheme is horrible IMO.
Looked much better when it was clean.

looks much better b/c the full black color scheme matches.
