Looks nice except for that ridiculous slam. I like the red, don't see too many red clk's around here.

I agree, I love the way the red looks with the wheels and kit. However, the slam is even dangerous. I think raised up a bit but lowered than factory (i.e somewhere in the middle) would look ideal for the setup. Good luck and hopefully no rubbing.

It is a great color combo with those wheels, but man the rear wheel is half gone hahaha:p What size tires are you running in order to fit them in and under like that? I'm running 18x9 35mm offset and 265/35/18 and my tire is pretty flush with the rear lip. Of course mine is on stilts (I mean stock height).

Actually I don't have any rubbing due to my lovely stock ride height. I'll have to probably when I lower it though.

Why do you have side markers and turn signal style mirrors? If that is a 99 how did you put on the 2000+ mirrors how much did it cost?

Love the car, love the rims, love the kit, love the slammed look. I can only imagine the ride quality.

Keep up the good work. and where you been hiding all this time? Never seen your car on the forum before.

love the car, not my taste in lowering....

lowering for me is for performance, as far as aesthetics go, just eliminating fender gap is all i need, not the top three inches of the rim

i also like my car to be drivable.....how do you get into gas stations and speed bumps, i know you can go around them, but i hope you dont drive this car very often because it seems so impractical.

but it does look great, love the color, kit, and actually the black grill looks better than i thought it would.
