Carlsson Quad Exhaust on C32
finally got it put on.. some glitches but not too bad. it will be smoothed out later. The tips on the left side stick out more then the right side.
In this pic.. it's more apparent that the left side sticks out more then the right side, however it will be fixed when they remove the resonator.

AMG Bred: Looks Good
Hey AMG Bred, looks good.
I also purchased the Carlsson quad exhaust from Harris but have not installed it yet (I plan on doing it myself).
Anyway, you said in one of your responses that the shop removed some material from the extension pipe. Are you talking about the piece that runs behind the bumper? If so, do you know how much they had to remove. Harris never told me about this requirement!!
Also, do you have any closeups of the right hand cutout? This is my main concern, I don't want to fu@k-up a perfectly good bumper.
Thanks!

unfortunately i did not ask how much they cut off but as per Harris's instructions.. I believe it was a 1/4" section. I will get you close ups of the cut out soon.. the cut out isn't perfect yet on my car either.. it's sort of slopped on the left which is a glitch i need to fix out when my car goes in the body shop to get the C55 spoiler installed.

The problem is the exhaust is not meant to work with AMG bumper. If you dont cut it, the right side cutout will look closer to the corner of the bumper than the left side. In order to balance out the two cutouts, just cut the extension pipe about 1/4".
As for the right side cutout, you can never do it right the first time. Just make sure you have a cutout big enough for the tips to show (but dont overcut it), then use a dremel and trim the edges nicer. Or if you are still afraid to screw up, get the 55 bumper.
Btw, I thought you said you have built a custom quad exhaust??? How come you never have to do the right side cutout???

Looks really good!!!!
I assume European Autowerks did the install - they must be the ultimate authority in installation of Carlsson quad exhausts by now!!!
Hope all goes smoothly with the CLK55.
Can't wait to see the pics!

Anywho, If you have time Tuesday, come stop by there and come check out the CLK, I am getting the quads installed then.
