Mmmm classy, <3 white.
Where did you get that grille from? Do they make those but with 3 bars instead?
You should also change the bumper light bulb to chrome so you can't see the amber.
Is that the Carlsson replica lip? I forgot if I asked you, but it looks REALLY good.

I picked the grille up from the guys over at Custom Euro. Although they don't have the 3 fin version, I know the guys whom I purchased my lip from (Sarona), which by the way yes is a Carlson replica, do sell the 3 fin (Brabus replica) grill for the CLS.
I would have jumped all over it, but they wanted $650+ for it!!! If I find one down the road that's a but more reasonably priced, I'll definitely take that route...
As for the chrome corner bulbs, I may just do that this week. Thanks for the heads up!
Although it's hard to tell, I also slapped on a white roof spoiler and some carbon fiber side pillar covers. Subtle little things...
Performance wise, I swapped out the OEM air filters with a pair of K&N's, oh and for those who may be interested in a set, Pep Boys has them for $38 each! I thought that was a good price considering I've seen them sell as high as $50 a piece. After speaking with Dino at Veloce last week, next on my list will most definitely be an ECU tune. I just have to find some free time to shoot the ECU out to them and all...

Wow. . . I've never been a fan of white cars but with the CLS OMG!!!! Looks sick. Totally agree with Full Throttle - white wheels will take it to another level. Congrads.
