Can you kick Marcin in the *** and told him to send me my tune..: )… and forget the other parts I ordered? Can't wait several months again…..

Very interested to see how the headlights come out! I also really want to do the piano black trim, but I may go the vinyl wrap route. Lots of cool stuff happening!

kamilclk430

I can't really kick him in the ***, cause my car will never be put together lol
I can tell him you are trying to get a hold of him.

I never had any issues with these guys I will mention to Marcin you are looking for your tune, you will be super happy with the tune.

What other parts you got on order?

Headlights should be put together any day so I will make sure to take some pics for you. I have a photo shoot coming up as soon as my car is out of the shop so we can wait till then which should be early April.

I would never do vinyl again, its thick around the edges and it will make some buttons around the trim stuck or move slowly. You would still need to remove the trim to get it wrapped and Vinyl will cost you almost the same as any shop that would paint it in Piano Black. I will post pics of interior as soon as its back together, I'm having my paint guy go over the shift boot again because there were some complications with that piece.

Just picked up some new bolts for the wheels in black to match everything right

I also decided to remove the Chrome star in the rear and all badges. The V12 side badgess will be removed and replaced with SPEEDRIVEN badges. I might do a Black Mercedes STAR badge in the back if I dont like the all clean look. I'm getting the entire car buffed out after all work and cleaned up. The middle rear brake light will also be getting a slight tint.

More pictures and updates to come.

loving the progress

my opinon on caliper color - is the red matches the tailights best. i too have a "blacked out" w215 and i try to keep the theme going by having as little colors on the car as possible. i was also considering silver or just black caliper paint

and i respect the wood trim removal because it's your car, but in my opinion that and the leather is what really sets the bar for a luxury car in my opinion

keep on keepin on!

ctravis595

rims are huge when it comes to the w215. they can really make or break the ride and frankly 9/10 w215s i see do not have rims that do them justice

kamilclk430

Thanks Man,

I def understand the wood trim it gives it a different and rich look, I got my S Class and thats where I'm going to try to keep comfy and luxury at. I also don't like the big seats in the CL and was wondering if CLK63 Black or C63 Seats would work. I would have to change the center armrest and prob fab something to match the seats and match up.

I like the idea of red brakes that is why I considered them, I love the Lambo Orange and I guess it will pop nice on an all black car. I'm getting the tails tinted a bit just to dim down that red.

You gonna do your inner headlight housing in black? I will post pic early next week to show you how they look, I think they are still not back together yet.

Thanks Again

Kamil

im super excited to see how they came out, definitely something i could spend a lot of time on at home getting torn apart but really wont cost too much

is yours an 02?

kamilclk430

No, they made the V12 TT motor from 03-05 only.

I will post pics as car comes together.

Thanks

Kamil

ctravis595

ahhh i was wondering because you mentioned the oval exhaust tips. i wasn't aware they lived past 02 on any amg/v12!

i too have them (my car started as a cl500 but i dropped in a cl55 engine and transmission) and have recently been considering doing what you did with the tail pipes also. it really would spice the rear end up SOOOO much. that and a rear diffuser!

kamilclk430

I was looking for a CL55/65 rear bumper but could not find one and the ones I found were like crazy $$$.
Yea the oval tips are a disaster that is what my first mod should have been getting rid of those things.

kamilclk430

Marcin and Konrad at Speedriven are working on a new little project for the V12 TT cars, glad to say its being tested on my car and as soon as everything is good and working I will be able to update you on a video clip and also some pictures. This is on a hush for now so please don't ask what it is. Once it is complete I will post up more info on this.

Just getting the excitement and minds going. Only fair to post whats happening at all times on this project.

Always was a fan of your SL. Looking forward to this as well.

kamilclk430

Thanks

I hope I don't mess it up going all black on it but worst case scenario I will buy some nice 3 piece wheels and it will look killer all black on some nice step polished lips

New intakes …. Maybe Killer Chiller for SL R230????

kamilclk430

No, but I am getting the Speedriven Scorpion Intakes installed.

I have a W215 now no more R230. The R230 does not have a chiller killer yet? Maybe that's something Speedriven can make.

Ekselent

I have them also + the coolers…. but my problem is (I have wait few months) after the 99 Oct tune. Regarding the Killer Chiller ...I think if they made only one V12TT kit you can use it at booth cars… ?
I have ordered the downpipes + cats also but they don't even answer or send the invoice so I have decide to made them here.. . Cant wait few months or one year after them-… or maybe more… … Its sad but I must moving on.
(you have good luck when you live close to their)

kamilclk430

Do you want me to talk to the guys and see if they can get you an invoice?

let me know

Kamil

Ekselent

Thank you Kamil.

There is no need anymore…. I have ask so many times so I'm so tired to do that anymore . I have write an e-mail to Marcin few days ago and backorder the downpipes+cats because when I can't get them simple … I have only ask him to send my 99 Oct tune which he have promise to send me few months ago…. If I pay I'm not sure I even get the parts…. I'm so disappointed… But I would be very happy If I get only the tune.

Sorry and thank you for your kindly help.
Good luck with your project…

kamilclk430

Thanks and same to you. I will mention you are waiting on your tune to Marcin.

Nice project! Coming along well. I have been slowly coloring my lug bolts a nice rusty color. Tell Marcin I may want the "secret project" installed on my car if it will make it faster.

kamilclk430

The Lugs are only $55 shipped if you want PM me and I'll tell you where to find them.
This little project will not make the car faster but def something interesting.

kamilclk430

Some pics of the tails before after paint my guy send me. They still need to get buffed. Crappy cell pics but more pics to come once I pick these up on Monday night with the rest of my stuff

kamilclk430

Picking up my Tails, Mirror Signals and Grille tomorrow evening from paint, will have new pictures tomorrow evening.
