Well, here are some quick pics at a show the car is in. I have more, but i will make you all beg for them. j/k :p I gotta take some more better ones. But in the meantime, here are 2. I attached one of the rear wheel because i know everyone loves a lip shot. 
I will give more comments on the suspension soon.

WOW. Very very nice - I love that look I love the rims.
DAMMIT now I want to get me a set of KW's.
How was the install? Did it take long and can a person who's done mutliple coil installs on an Audi do one on a C55?

Fast Cars!
Well, first of all, thanks for the compliments everyone. I appreciate it.
Now to answer some of you questions...
Thanks, They are HRE 448R silver finish 19x8.5F and 19.9.5R. 1 1/2 lip on the front 3" lip on rear. Tires are Michelin Pilot sport PS2's. 235/35/19 and 265/30/19. Yes, the car has KW Variant 2 coilovers.
Thanks alot man, now i can just use your front Brembo kit! :p Yes, as far as i know, i have never seen another C55 with a drop and HREs. lol, i am not a fan of black centers, i like the cleaner look of the silver, or then again, your chrome 8 series would be pimp. 
Thanks! I didn't install it, but my installer said everything went smooth and everything was fine. It took them about 5 hours to do. He told me the rears were easy, but the fronts were a *****. I dont know how, he just said the front were difficult. I am pretty sure if you have done a coilover install before, you will be fine to do this.
LOL, i have told you this like 982883939839 times already. 
:p

Here is 1 more picture from the front with the CLK grill installed. I will take more pics sometime this week. I prefer outdoor shots with better lighting.
