Well its the lighting and like I said it looks Hawt! I thought color was toned down for a black and white or a grey scale look. It looks good to me. You are always on point or ahead of the game.

That's a tough one, if you go with a black grill and lip like that I would say black. If your going to leave your car as is then the gunmetal, either way both look sick!

Let's just say you have a hard choice to make. The car really looks good with both I guess that is why you are asking. You can't go wront either way.

What size are the wheels and tires? By-the-way.... Looks great! I have been noticing that the deep dishes are on the way to possibly being replaced by the concaved style. I just ordered some Savini SV8s 20" X 9" and 20" X 11". I selected the 255/30/20 and 305/25/20.

Are people actually getting these wheels yet?

From what i can tell you have them on as a promo, as with all the other pics we have seen, but not heard much on them from people who actually bought them...

secondly that SL grill just does not fit the CLS I feel, 1 fin is too less, 2 is emmm still love the 3 fin style.

you can see this when u look at the other car, just looks more aggressive i feel.
Adding a front lip will help also, you can paint it white to keep the color, or go carbon lip, grill, wheels and get a carbon sticker on the roof...now that would be sexeh!
