Any last minute reasons why I shouldn't get the MH-Dezent kit?

If anyone can think of any reason why I shouldn't get the MH-Dezent kit, please let me know. I know many of you have seen the pictures of it at www.mh-dezent.de, and can not tell because of the poor picture quality... This picture of a C class (which is similiar, yet different, and should be used to get an idea of what particular parts on the CLK look like) should help clear things up.


I will be ordering the front spoiler, rear spoiler, side sills, CL style "bonnet" (hood), CL style grill, and QUAD EXHAUST (YEAH!!!!!!). No, I will not be ordering the wheels, spoilers, or the negative camber that many have commented earlier on (CLK).

I think the MH Dezent stuff is very nice...even the wheels. I will be picking up this line from Simon.

As I said before, no matter which one fo the three you choose, it will look nice and you won't be disappointed.

hey mach, isn't the quad exhaust detrimental to....

performance? from what i was told, the right side's exhaust is more for show than anything else, extending from the muffler on the left side just before the bumper.....wouldn't this extra piping be inefficient for performance gains? hopefully i'm wrong about this, because i really like the quad exhaust look. by the way, do you guys have pricing on the rear spoiler and the quad exhaust yet?

All these external mods has me thinking.... How much do these things weigh??? does anybody know? in essence, all these things are slowing the car down with the extra weight, which i think a dual exhaust would especially do. metal is probably alot heavier than the fiber glass used to make the kit...
