It's my job, man! It's a nasty job but someone has to do it. Can't measure the pay in dollars and cents. Thank you Paul

CLK55 / E350 Coupe
Sup Ash,

Nice hanging out with you a bit last sunday.
Just installed the bar, and went for a spin. And... Oh ya!! Feels surprisely better! I was skeptical, thinking AMG would do atleast a decent job stiffening up the car, nope. It can whip the tail around in a 180 and the slide is way more controlled, i would usually would fight a little woddle, i see myself gasing alot sooner.
I did tighten it down tight, you did say i may not like the stiffness but love it. Did bunch of crusing on uneven hilly beach roads, the car overall just feels confident. For example you know the 405 to the 105 onramp which can be taken 100mph its got a couple of slow dips which makes the car feel floaty, problem is gone.
Cherry for the night was the long spiral banked offramp near LAX hope you know it... the Nash street exit, if you haven't tried it... try it

Great work, thanks!
