[QUOTE=skyliner32;4302604]I bought the front bumper from Taiwan.
Have just fitted the star grill, what do you guys think?
Original in black or star grill.

^^ brabus monoblock VI. They are all over this forum and there are sponsers here that sell replicas... Just ordered my set from www.oewheelsllc.com (in the vendor directory) for my w203. Great looking wheel for the c/clk IMO.

also since you painted the roof, maybe smoking the turn signals on your tail lights would tie the car together.

I didnt paint the roof. i had it wrapped to see what it looks like. Im gonna do the rails when i paint it. my car is silver. I would have smoked the tails, but I like it when the 5-0 doesnt pull me over for nonesense.

I like the roof. I vote that you paint it. I was just asking if your car was silver from the factory, which I don't think it is. From the factory, the side-rails on the roof are black, but most body shops will paint those with the rest of the car. Also, aren't the bumper strips darker than the rest of the car from the factory?

Bumper and door strips are darker/different color only on pre-facelift models.
Facelift models came color-coded from factory.
And a lil pic of my ride:

Your car looks amazing. Every time I look at this thread I miss my CLK so much. I would love to have it back!

Not the nicest backdrop, but here is a pic of a 2002 CLK 430 I just bought and tuned for my girlfriend. Eibach springs, bilstein HD shocks, 19 Merc knockoffs, Singh Autosport software, cat-back exhaust. Running #1 pad in the rear, but installing #3 to lift it a bit more in the rear to even it out. Clear corners on order. And probably need a small spacer in the rear.

Thanks! Suspension is Eibach with Bilstein Heavy Duty (not the stiffer Sport) shocks. Spring pads are #3 in the rear and I believe #3 in the front. It rides incredible; firm but not harsh. Wheels are Mercedes CLS 55 knockoffs; 19x8.5 and 19x9.5. Not exactly sure of the offset - need to look on the inside of the wheel.
I ordered a rear camber kit to get the camber to -2.0 degrees; it is -3.25 degrees now. Also needs a small spacer in the rear; about 10mm to 12mm depending on how far the camber kit pushes the wheel towards the fender.
