My "new" 2014 CLA45 AMG Build Thread
Here is my newest AMG project, never not had a V8 one before. Race start is much better on this car than the c63 and e63's I've had. Haven't had a w213 to compare however, only w212.
The paddle shifters actually respond almost instantly as well with this DCT, which is a nice welcome coming from the sluggish and pretty much useless paddles on the MCT AMG's! Anyways here is a couple pics of it bone stock and I'll be updating as I mod it. It's pretty decently optioned and has a nice brown/black nappa leather package. I hate the boring all black interior that most AMG's get optioned with. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...f61e8aa7f.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...e7cb73f5d.jpeg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...dc3754cb38.jpg |
Did my first mod tonight, I had a couple sets of brand new red anodized aluminum paddle extensions sitting around that I had ordered and didn't fit my 2014 ML63. Well one of the sets fit this car perfect! Also here is a pic of the bone stock engine, not for long!

Blacked out the grille "wing", star, and lower lip today.

Interior looks nice. Good to see it has the options vs a base model. The leather dash makes a huge difference.

Blacked out the lower side pieces below the doors today, have some astetic goodies coming soon. MST intake ordered and the ECU is going to Eurocharged tomorrow for their stage 2 tune and catless downpipes on order as well.

Just installed the tuned ECU and carbon wing today. Haven't driven it yet since it's relatively clean and it's raining outside.

Car looks good. I just got a twin cousin to yours. Except mine is black in side. I have replaced the window trim, and mirror covers to the black ones. I already did the same fender emblems. But I have the same silver front lip spoiler, and silver side rocker trim, and silver rear diffuser, and white spoiler. My next thing to do is get the lip spoiler and rockers black. How did you do yours? Did you paint them on the car? Are you gong to do the rear diffuser matte black also? Where did you get the carbon fiber dask and rear spoilers?
Thx |

Thx I masked and did the front lip and side rockers on the car. I don't plan to do the lower diffuser as the silver gives some contrast against the upper black diffuser section. I may put an aftermarket diffuser on at some point though. |
