My new carbon fiber spoiler came in since the one that I had on the car got a little messed up when the car sat in the garage. Something mush have hit it before I put it away for winter or when it was in the garage which is impossible because the car has its own spot and no one is allowed by it here are some pics of what I got today in the mail with my tips that are pictures above

I'm kind of torn between 2 colors, understanding the car will be all gloss black not sure if I should go with the dark blue or candy apple red?

Looks good! Can you tell me where you got it!

xabo

Depends on what type of look you're after. The red will definitely stand out more compared to the blue.

kamilclk430

I want something different from everyone else, something that will get the big brakes to stand out from the rest of the all black on the car. If you go on google and search chicago motor cars clk63 black series a all black car will come with the calipers done in blue and that is what got me going on the Blue

xabo

The blue looks more "subtle" IMHO.

kamilclk430

I Agree I think i will go with the blue, btw Im waiting on a msg back from my guy about that spoiler

Thanks got more pics coming tonight. Picking up my inner painted housings will post pics once I get these. My mirror signals should be here as well today.

My turning SMOKED signals came in for the mirrors. They don't look that smoked to me at all but I will take them by the shop to put them up against the OEM ones to see the difference, worst case scenario I will have these tinted just a bit.Here are a few pics of how they look

I'm also debating to give a light tint to my tails, just where the 4 clear stripes are, I would leave the red areas alone and have my guy paint over the clear areas with a light tint
Here is how the tail lights look now, I'm still trying to figure out if I should do this or not since once it is done there is no way of going back

one vote is better than none

2 of my buddies told me the same thing already so 90% sure this will be getting done as well. Gonna add it to the list as soon as I'm at 100%

Your gauge pod is going to be done as well I'm just waiting for the time to come closer to start adding it

My inner headlight housings are back from paint along with my side markers that were lightly painted over just to give them a different look here are a few pictures before they get put back together.

kamilclk430

Got my tails off today to go into get the white 4 stripes painted over to give them a bit of a tint look to match up the car better once it is finished.

Came across another color I would want for my calipers today when I was at Speedriven its the Lambo Orange what do you guys think?

mc061680

I'm surprised that I'm saying this, bc I really hate black taillights, but light tint should look very good. I also thought about calipers color and I'm back to blue. If you want them different and stand out from the crowd... go blue bro!

kamilclk430

I like the blue as well, but like the sunset orange too. Can't make up my mind at all.

But thanks for chiming in

are you rebuilding the oem turbos with billet wheels or going to different turbos? if your rebuilding the oem turbos who is doing it and how much do they cost if i can ask?

mc061680

The answer is all over his signature...

Grip Grip

I'd definitely go with orange. I'm biased though, as that's the color I used with I installed the CLK63 setup on my XF.

kamilclk430

Im getting the turbos rebuild with billet internals, you cant go bigger turbos in these cars because the manifold is connected with the turbos and once the manifold changes everything has to be moved around causing the cost to sky rocket. When guys go bigger turbos the build gets up in price quick, but just coolers, meth, and billet oem turbos can see gains close to 200rwhp and even more TQ. Speedriven does all my work and when it comes to MB they def know their stuff, they also do Porsches I seen one the other day getting turbos done there. Please PM me tell me what you need and I will talk to the guys for you. You can also PM Marcin from Speedriven and ask.

kamilclk430

Agreed, today I told the guys at Speedriven my choice is Lambo Orange color is on order.

Cant wait

kamilclk430

When it comes to Benzes you know where to find me

Update:

Calipers have been removed today and tires are yanked of the wheels, waiting for Speedriven to get all stuff back from powder coating which should be by end of next week. Once those parts come back car will be coming back together.

Speedriven is also working on a special new part an its in testing, should be very interesting once its all done and complete.

Tail lights along with mirror signals went out to paint to get a light tint put on them. Center caps also went out to get painted and my new badgeless grille.

Next week we should see a bunch of progress, car hopefully will be ready first week of April
