19" Fabulous profound on my CLK 320

I've had these wheels for about a year, but I never took pics of them. Thought yall might like to take a look at them.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.

All of the pics were taken on Oahu, the first one is right after you pass Sandy beach, just before Makapu'u point. The second pic is the coast right after Makapu'u, and the third is an area just outside of Waimanalo, I'm not sure of the name.

911Jose- There are actually quite a bit of CLK's here, nothing close to certain states on the mainland, but still a lot for how small the island is. There are some very nice cars here, NSX's, lexus, porsches, some newer ferraris, and even a couple skylines that are still right side drive from Japan. I also saw a new rolls royce near my house the other day. Oahu is also home to some seriously modified Supras.

My car is for sale, I have a buyer that is wiring me funds for it tommorow. I'll hopefully have a CLK 430 coming soon. (I am keeping the Fabulous wheels for the 430).

Love the background of the beach. I want to jump in that ocean. Nice wheels too, what color 430 are you getting?

I've got a silver 430 with black interior already picked out, as soon as I get the money wired to me tommorow for my 320, it should be mine. I know silver is common, but it is the original color I always wanted when the CLK first came out, and it is so easy to keep clean.

I really like the dark metallic blue CLK's that some of the forum members have, but I am getting a really good deal on this silver one.

I think the silver looks nice and classy. Of course, the darker colors look so nice when they are freshly washed and waxed but I think that would be too high maintenance for the amount of rain you guys get in the islands.

Hey I'll be up in Oahu in August. Maybe I'll see you driving around in that shiny silver 430 with the bling bling.

Congrats on the upgrade.

What are the rims called? They look hot.

Silver is nice too but my favorite color on a CLK is white. I have a black 430 and love it but something about the white really does it for me.

Lots of luck with the sale and the purchase of your new 430.

Dronellis, I was going to drop this thing with the cup kit, but I sold it.

My 430 will be slammed though! I kept the fabulous wheels, they are going on my 430 for sure.

What's up 1SICKLEX, haven't seen you for a while. I am going to visit CL more often, I may be joining the lexus family soon!

I just replaced my 320 with a 430 ( I kept the rims though ), but I also have my eyes set on a 2.5 turbo soarer from Japan. It won't be for a couple more months, but I will post pics of it on CL if I get it.

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I will post pics of my 430 once I put the wheels (and hopefully a cup kit) on it.

Nice ride... it even comes pre-tinted... what other mods did the 430 come with?

You better throw on those Fabulous wheels quick... and then you can throw your stock AMGs my way... I'll pay for shipping to take them outta your hands....

Yes, it's an 02. I think the tint is the only thing the previous owner did to the car, it came from the factory with the wheels, amg kit, and amg badge on the rear (all of which will be removed shortly).

It's going to take a month for my fabulous wheels to arrive in california, so I am going to be cruising on just an H+R cup kit for a while with amg wheels and body kit. My Lorsinser DTM kit should be ready to install right around the same time the wheels get here.
