Who makes the the best body kits for the CLK
I'm looking for a clean no nonsense, subtly aggressive look. I'm not looking for a streetable "DTM" racecar appearance. Also, does anyone make steel flares for this car? Again, I'm looking add no more than a couple of inches of width on each side. What do you think of Stillen products?? Thanks.

If you are just looking for a little flare on your fenders, youy are probably best off going to a custom shop and having them do it for you. As far as kits go, your choices are pretty limited. In my opinion, the Brabus kit looks really boring in person. The AMG kit probably continues to be my favorite, however, the front end sucks from both an aesthetic and aerodynamic perspective. The Renntech kit is cool but doesn't really belong on a car without some serious bite.

The Stillen kit looked pretty good, but I don't know if they ever followed up with it. I tied to attach the pic...hope it works.

There was a CLK at the LA auto show that had a ridiculous widebody kit. Completely new fenders welded in, and it looked horrendous. Can't remember which company did it, though.

I think Lorinser and carlsson makes the best kits for right now
Lorinser and Carlsson still the best, but for flare fender, as everyone said that renntech make the best flared fender. Im agree for that or maybe u can try Auto culture wide body kits.
