2006 CLS55 AMG
Here are some final pictures of the car. The wheels are 21" HRE 890R's, gloss black powder coated w/ chrome lips. The brakes are Brembo 405mm 6 piston monoblocks in the front and 380mm 4 piston monoblocks in the rear. This is the first set ever on a CLS.
I want to thank Peter at Wheel Experts for the gorgeous wheels. Peter is the man when it comes to wheels. The offsets are spot on and the wheels arrived very quickly. This is one of many sets of wheels I have purchased through him, and each experience has been perfect.
I also want to thank Robert Chew at Falken Tires for the FK452’s.
Last but not least I want to thank CarNutz Customz for the amazing work on the car. I really can’t express how satisfied I am with them. I was consistently updated with the progress of the vehicle and never left out of the loop. They have great customer service and an amazing attention to detail. For anyone is interested in modifying a MB, these are the guys to talk to. The true definition of a one stop shop
It has been a long process, but well worth it. So enjoy the pics guys and let me know what you think.

I've known Mike ever since I got my benzo...he has always been an awesome friend. I have seen his IS progress from the early stages to what it is right now. When I heard he got a CLS I knew he wouldn't disappoint!!! 
All I gotta say buddy is that yer car is SICK...but then again I don't expect anything less from you or any of the guys from TWC...
My car is going through some changes too....not as extreme as yours but definitely different....
Let me know when yer good....we need to hang soon!!!

I will be at all of the HIN events left on their schedule. I believe the next show down in SoCal is HIN Pomona (early August). Feel free to come on out and check the car out in person.

saw the car in flesh tonite.
HOT!
interior is super clean off the chain and the exterior bodywork is so good it looks like stock. ICE is spectacular and gives me a simple and refined feeling of an iPod
