Looks good. Get clear side lenses to really set your car off. Congrats.

Nice stance. Good looking. Imagine if the car comes with sport package. What is the HPs/TQs on this one?

Yeah, I wish this car had the Sport Package too! But luckily it's so low the stance suits the car quite well with the non-AMG bumpers. And according to RENNtech it's 408HP/464TQ

I would get the AMG sport package if I plan to keep it for a while (since it is a special car). I assume those numbers are crank numbers, correct?

I like the lowering myself. It looks really nice but you probably run < 10K miles for each set of tires.

I think I went a solid 4,000 before I had to replace my rears last summer. camber wear is killer

Yeah I put on new Pirelli P-Zeros 285/30/19's in the rear. They will most likely last 15k to 20k which is normal for me in one year I have changed tires on other vehicles up to three times. This car is definitely a tire eater. But the drop is worth every penny.

I was thinking of doing the AMG bumpers and Updating the headlights and tail lights, but the thing is I believe those additions though look amazing, would not be truthful to the original design for the year. I think I'll be keeping this car as close as I can to the way Mercedes and RENNtech made it, year correct. And I'm not sure if those figures are at the crank, that is what the paperwork I received from RENNtech read. I want to dyno this car this summer sometime. That would be interesting!

I thought 10K on my SL was bad lol. It's the PITA mounting the tires on my 20" CL (especially the front).

Perhaps you should raise your car to max level when driving. The lower look is for sitting.

Sorry for off topic. Do you have procedure how to replace the clear corner? is it screwed from inside the bumper? Thanks.

If they didn't say anything about the numbers then it must be at crank. Regardless, it's a nice car.

Well the clear corners just snap in. Take a key and wedge from the back of the lens and the front is a hook. Very simple.... but make sure you get STEALTH BULBS or the sun will reflect off and show amber colored bulbs and it will have a color instead of clear.... worth every penney!!!
