brabus accessories...and other upgrades for cl500

i am in the process of making upgrades to my car..so far i got brabus pedals and a brabus shift knob...i like how everything has the b logo on it since that is my initial too..i eventually am going to get 19 inch brabus wheels with the B center caps although they are a bit expensive right now...so what else can i get to make minor customizations to this car..is there any other brabus accessories you can think of or what else have people done to make cosmetic changes or even performace improvents to a cl500...i have seen things like chrome headlight and taillight rings, illuminated doorlight sills although i cant find them for the w215...any suggestions...thanks

Don't get those gay headlight rings... please....

you can get the doorsills from e-bay but I do not like the quality... I bought a set and it was cheap so I was just going to take the light part out and cut it into my factory sills which are much better.

Brabus... you picked the most overpriced manufacturer out there... nice stuff but expensive...

They are heavy anyway... not worth it at all. What 5 spokes? the monoblock or the double spoke? ther are a lot of good wheels out there. whats your budget?

Monoblock's are stylish and popular... and seem like a waste of money to me

Get RENNtech Monolites, you know you want them and AMG2GO will tell you to get them as well from info@euroteckmotorsports.com

well heres the thing..right now my car has 20 inch foose speedsters..it came like that...the rims themselves won't work when i move back into new york city, not to mention they are in need of a re chrome job so i guess ill be tossing them or selling them for very cheap..anyway i would like to get 19inch wheels but i might have to get 18 inch, i really do not know what i can get away with around the city..i like the stock wheels that come on the cl65 and 55 i think..they are amg double spoke i guess but i mean the single 5 spoke is straight too..but even those are damn expensive..maybe someone on here has them who swtiched rims or else i might be looking at replicas whichh i dont want..
