I got the car lowered today...i think i may need to adjust it a tad in the rear seems a bit too low, what you guys think?
list of my mods so far...nothing major...going to be ordering my wheels hopefully this month, leaning towards the Forgiato Martellato brushed finish with chrome lip 20".
excuse the quality (iphone)
AMG sprint booster...made a noticeable difference
AMG lock pins
Clear markers
Euro comand
Led plate bulbs n city bulbs
Lowered with links

I like the mods. 
Where did you buy your license plate LEDs? And do you have a DIY to install the door pins?
The back is too low IMHO. I hope you always have a smooth road to drive on.

thanks
thanks, Q...we still need to run em before you get your mods in
thanks
i was thinking that at first until i pulled into a parking lot and smashed the tire against the fender...rubber mallet fixed that but im not taking any chances...so rear is going to come up a tad
license plate leds are from ebay, i made a thread in this forum should be a few post down...the doors pins were fairly easy to get in...the stock pins twist out but the plastic surrounds are a bit tougher, i used a flat head screw driver and pulled them out...they are about 1.5" long...the new pins took about 5 secs a door to get it.
car feels as it did stock imo...corners better though...still need to get her aligned

In regards to after market door pins. I found the very clean looking Chrome-Tec Metal Door Pins & Reset Knob which looks great on my CLS. Chrome-Tec also have a store on eBay.

you car look sick man.. i dont own a cls yet but will soon and will definetly be getting it in white i think it looks the hotest. It complipents the luxurious yet sporty lines of the car... BTW my neighbor has a 08 s550 AMG white dropped on 22" FORGIATO VECCIO his rims are white with white lip and the face of the rim is polished/polished it looks so dammmmm sexy!!!!!! FORGIATO are good wheels IMO i would get something other than the Martellato they seem too traditional too me the 5 star thing is old id go a little bit more new design especially for expensive wheels like those.. nonetheless good job looks sick regardless. and ohh yeah the rear is a tad bit low but others already said that.. laters..
