I finally received my rack.. Came straight from MB of Germany. There wasnt ONE left in the states at any of the stealerships! and there are only 65 left in the world! I still need to get my Mtn bike and Snowboard attachment. Next i will be rolling my fenders and getting spacers so my wheels sit flush on all fours! Has anyone rolled their fenders on their own before?

Hey to each their own! I love it! Cant wait to put it to good use! And when the fenders are rolled and spacers are on all fours... It will looks so sick! Now all i need to do is figure out a way to get the AWD system off an e320 4matic! Then I would have the ultimate CLK! haha

I agree with OGCLK320 that is super bad, ! Understated in my opinion is more rather then being too bling and protentious ! The fact that you have a Merc Coupe with a roof rack just goes againts the grain in all sorts of good ways!

PS Also I love the black grill, get those rears Kicked out though with some 18mm spacers !

If you actually use the roof rack and make use of it, more power to you.

If you did it for the stanced/hellaflush look then it's mega phailure.

Of course I'm going to use it! I just need to get my mtn bike and snowboard attachments for it. But that will be another few hundred bucks. And as i said above.. to each there own. I like the flush look and cant wait to get my spacers and roll my fenders. It will look good when I'm finally complete with it... Well to me at least. haaa

Hello,
I know it has been couple of years since you post the picture of the CLK with the rack on top! I am interested on knowing where to order one and part number? Please help I am in the same situation as yours and want to carry my two bikes.
Thanks.

The part number I ordered is: 6-6-84-8331
I ordered mine from the site below. I had to order one for a 2002 on the site even though mine is a 2001. I called and spoke with the parts guy before I placed the order and he assured me it fits from like 98-2002. That was the years of the W208 body style. You could ask your local dealer. Mine was lazy and just said they don't make them anymore. So I called back the online dealer and he said he looked at what they had in Germany and there were 5 left in stock.

I order one, so now there's only 4 left in the world!
Only paid $288 delivered.

Here's the website I got mine:
