New CLA45 AMG with mods

Picked up CLA45 AMG few weeks ago. Great car. Went to my friends at Kartoyz, and we modded it.

1. Clear armor
2. Window tint
3. Smoked the rear tail lights
4. Brabus lowering springs (with an additional 1/3 coil removed)
5. Brabus 20 X 8.5 wheels (grey background finish looks good with grey Merc)
6. Brabus tuning module, good for an additional ~40 hp

The ride is about the same, even though we trimmed the coil, due to progressive coil wind. The car is very quick with the tuning module, accelerates like a beast and the exhaust note is deeper/louder. And there is no more lag in the shifting. Response is immediate.

The mods looks great. I also have the mountain gray metallic but wo the carbon fiber trim. The wheels matches very well. Is the Brabus also a piggy back tune module ? Can you post the exhaust note changes?

Looks good !!!




Wheels really suit the CLA, those are the Brabus wheels released for the C Class C204 Bullit special edition.

Wow, car looks awesome with 20" wheels. With 18-19s the cars proportions looks. Bit goofy from side profile, but with 20" it looks a lot better!

It is a piggy back module, removes easily.

Mercedes did such a good job on the body styling for the that car, in my opinion.

Congratulations!

Now that is one tastefully modded CLA45!

You've basically accentuated everything that came "right" from the factory. Well done.
