My CL with HRE's, fenders and more goodies
I picked up a CL550 about three weeks ago. I still have a few more things I want to do to the car. The wheels are 22" HRE 943's. I also did a Renntech ECU and ELM. The undertray is from a CL63 and the fenders are from Wald.

They are not. I thought they would be when I ordered them, but it's all good. I'm not speeding to much in this car. It's a great daily driver.

nice car but...
you could have bought a cl63 for $136 and got brakes, exhaust, handmade 518hp engine, paddle shifters, suspension, AMG kit free, wheels, unreal seats, resale value, on and on....

you have got to have $140 into your car.

Not sure if I quite undestand the logic in your decision to pour this kind of money into a 550. Although youve done a good job, I have no option but to say this can't be money well spent.

The cl63 is arguably the finest daily driver on the road.
