Question Is it possible to make a CL55 AMG look any better than it already does???

Guys - I'm looking for some way to make my baby to stand out from the rest! The colour is black and she has blacked out windows, but I'd really like to get some ideas on other visual enhancements. I know about 21" wheels etc, but they are really expensive and I was just wondering if there were any subtle body kits or other body modifications that could be done??? Any guidance much appreciated!!

It is already pretty good. I have seen a few debadged ones with body kits here in California (pretty sure they were early 2000 models) but they never look better. I think lowering an inch helps - - not too much so it looks silly, but makes it more sleek. Of course combine with wheels of your choice.

Thanks Patentmat - Yes - I know what you mean - I think it does look great. I noted you've got 305's on yours?! That must look absolutely fabulous! Do you have photos? I toyed with the concept of car graphics (flames etc) but that looks too much like the "fast and the furious"...

the car already has the amg bodykit which looks much better in my opinion than any aftermarket ones. definately lower the car, but not too much. you've got the windows tinted already. just add some real nice 20''(max) wheels or stock 19'' cl65 wheels. if your cl55 is an 01 or 02 make sure you update the tailights. you could also update the exhaust,brakes,o3+front bumper. if you own a 03+cl55, lower and add wheels
heres my 02 cl55-
