Another best cooling mod
not sure about the colors and finishing yet, I'll probably go for hood repaint, all green and black grill only... or also green
This is not just a guess, it has been designed and calculated by a engineer friend
the position is very precise
these type of extractors work like compressor vacuum tools
from 100km/h the airflow on the hood starts sucking out the hot air right before it goes to the engine

Finally I found it not good to apply those agressive late shapes from black series on the W215
So after 4 days designing I found the final version
here is progress
final paint tomorrow, All original green and black grill
btw, with 26°c outside, engine goes to 82°c max when driving at 90kmh
oh forgot to mention, I have a 2001 CL600 donor, just in case...

after multiple tests I finally chose OEM green paint everything and removed the stupid MB emblem as there is a huge star just below
chose custom black grille for the extractors you'll see when mounted
Did some extra DAS programming and now get 81 celcius / 177.8 Farenheit engine temp with normal driving from 100 kmph / 62 MPH (this is the minimum speed for the extractors to be 100% active)
ths with a outside temp of 30 celcius / 86 Farenheit
my extractors are 30% bigger then the black series version
used 3x original MB bi-comp HS varnish

I use titan-aluminum 6 mm sheet glued with Special Pattex for high temperatures Neoprene based glue
not completely finished around the heat extractors yet
