Few pics (black grill, carlsson lip, 6000k fogs)

A few more mods since the last time, also adjusted the height of the rear.

Next on the list is wheels, narrowed it down to 3 sets. Should be placing the order in the next few days, going for 20"s. Also thinking of getting black vinyl on the roof.

Looks great. Where did you pick up the Carlsson lip? I'm thinking of getting one as well.

Thanks, got the lip from a local member that was getting rid of it, but the sponsor TheWorkshopMB has them as well.

Looks awesome, can you provide more details about the fog lights? I cant stand mine and are looking to replace them. Did you also change the main lights? Im def looking for something that closely approximates the power of the main lights (ie, where the fog lights dont look way brighter than the main lights.)

Whatever there's gas in...
The ride looks sick!! But I expected that based on the S600 you had that was really nice too! I like the black grille (call me biased) Have you considered black headlight housings?

I went with the kit from the group buy section on here (hidextra) for $60 shipped with error cancellers. Installed in about 30 mins. Real straight forward, heres a DIY
https://mbworld.org/forums/cls55-amg...ng-lights.html
The 6000k matches pretty decently but the fogs have a bit of a blue tint compared to the low beams. I also ordered the 6000k low beam bulbs but haven't had a chance to get them in yet. Hope that helps.

Hi ssonss1,

Nice pics and mods. Did you have a chance to get your low beams installed. Would like to see a pic of all your lights installed. Thinking of picking some up from the HID extra guys. Thanks.

WHITE POWA!!!


Your car looks very clean and elegant the lip and grill really sets it of. What kind of wheels are you considering.
