Any suggestions on my new CL550?
Hey, guys. Just picked this up, had some custom 22" Asantis put on and tinted the windows. Everything else is stock. I think it looks pretty sick.

It's an 07 with 15K miles and has every single option available.

I would like to get weird and blow the car out.

I'm thinking exhaust, a Brembo brakesystem, etc.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I am all ears.

Thanks for looking.

I don't like aftermarket stuff, but your Asanti's don't look bad at all. I definitely wouldn't do anything more. Maybe tint the windows more. But definitely not a AMG exhausts, because you will look like a poser.

Nice Benz, keep it that way!

i wouldnt bother with an aftermarket brake system. They do stop well, but brembo installs ive seen tend to warp discs very quickly, and it might be quite an expensive experience. I would buy the 65 headers and slap them on the back

the Wald Black Bison bodykit looks really sick, i've also heard the CL's can fit the 405mm brembo brake discs which would look amazing with the brembo calipers as opposed to the 355mm discs...

So your car is not lowered? It sits quite nice with the 22s. I would think with the big wheels up front it would push the car up higher?

Whatever there's gas in...
Paint the Asanti's white & leave the chrome part on it, or paint the chrome part BLACK, lightly smoke your tails while leaving the white (reverse lights) untouched, lower it, get a meisterschaft exhaust, maybe a roof spoiler from Lorinser?

All humble suggestions of course on how I'd do it if I had one..
