Yes I've already checked them out. They only have these airtubes for the E and CLS models.

Thanks for your help....

I havent been able to find any as of yet... I doubt they will bring much HP. I am kind of disapointed with the money I have put into my CL and the power I have gotten out of it. I have decided to build another car since this one just isn't fast enough....

Can we have a bit more detail?
What did you do, who did it, what did it yield, how did you measure?

Carbon fiber is available. I've included a picture and I've inquired about it w/ this guy also. the website is rau-autowood.com. You actually have to send your stock parts out to be done. Its a fortune. I think 5k?! something crazy. It is silver but he can do black carbon. It came in the CL55 F1's stock! The back of the racing style seat was also all carbon. Very cool. Some CL65's I've seen have been carbon fibered as well. Not too long ago on ebay there was a bad *** one in tectite grey (my fav) and it was modded and carboned out among other things. Also, I posted a while back, about a CF front lip I found for little over a grand by a german tuner. People were *******s like oh how much hp do you get out of that and I wouldn't spend blah blah blah but whatever. You can check that out if you want to. i never did order it but maybe I will at some point. Do a search you should find a link to the site I'm talking about to.
ALSO.....If anyone is interested or might consider this silver carbon interior I have silver carbon fiber interior handles. Not the interior door pull itslef to open but the big one you pull to close it from the inside. They are silver carbon fiber, custom piece. Would be a great edition to this kit if anyone wants to do it.

What HAVEN'T I done is more like it!! LOL!!! There might just be a ton of REALLY fast cars here in Tampa. That's why I have decided to just build another. Don't waste your money on mercedes performance parts, IMO..
