HEADLIGHT TINT (eyelids?) opinion wanted...CL-class look?
i was toying around wit paintbrush and a pic of Blackbenzz car (lol) ta try to think of some way to mod the headlights...i thought about gettin em painted silver to the shape of the CL-class headlights but that probably wudnt let the light of the turnsignals thru...if i could pull that off in a paint matchin color id prob do it ...
but for the mean time i was jus messin around wit mayb a blak tint on the headlights cut to a certain shape ...i know some (or mayb a lot of ppl) wont like it or call it ricey but it may actually look alright wen done correctly and to the right shape...so keep in mind that im jus throwin it out ther ta c wut ppl think of it and also keep in mind it looks pretty sloppy cuz it was jus dun in paintbrush.....
also i chose the blak tint cuz im obviously on black wheels and gonna hav more black ta accent the wheels (lip spoiler, mirrors, grille, taillite tint, etc)
but neway let me kno wut u guys think and wich one u like the best..i personally like #2 the best IF i decided ta choose ne...

I had mine like the way you got it on #3 for a while, till i got a ticket for it. It looks good, but it dims out the lights, specially with the xenons it makes them look green. I think #4 looks good.

I don't like 4 at all. 3 Looks cool if you have everything blacked out (grill, hood, black mesh, etc) but would keep you from seeing.
1 and 2 look like a bimmer....not quite the right look for a clk

You've got some pretty original ideas for your ride - it's really coming together nicely - those other pics of your drop looked sweet - especially the rear aspect.
On the headlights - #1 looks pretty cool - any of them would def. be original though.
Congrats on your uniquie whip.

get your self a pair of black panty hose. (how you do it is no concern of ours) then you can stretch the over the headlights brake lights or anything else. go around a couple times if necessary to create a black look when 3 or 4 steps away... Then when the lights are in use it shines right through or with minimal obstruction. the real sweet part is no one can steal the "light cover" and its non permanent like paint.

The new rear bumper doesn't look that bad either. Look at the fenders of this guys setup. He has rolled them completely flat both on the inside and outside. You can fit some seriously big wheels with this setup. It actually looks good with the changed shape of the fenders.
Both the front and rear bumpers are pretty low so I think he has matched them up with the rieger side skirts.
