Mod Suggestions for 2000 CLK320

I just bought a Black Opal 2000 CLK320 with Oyster Interior. No command, regular chrome rims, pretty much your basic everyday stock car. What mods would you recommend? I just took off the front plate, and i'm assuming that touch-up paint will take care of those ugly holes. What grill would you recommend? What wheels? Lowering? What else? Thanks in advance.

I have C32 wheels and I think they look great...not many have em on CLKs either. If we ever find out how to get the grill that looks like the W209, I'd say order that. I know I'll be getting one! It looks a lot better than the half-w209 ones. Check it out here: https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class-w208/79493-new-great-cl-style-grill-austria.html Top is W209, bottom is W208 with the cool grill.

Not a fan. I did hear something about a pretty good Alpine Nav/Sound system?

How much % of a tint would you recommend?

Where can I find this, and how much does it generally cost?

I've heard of the HR Springs and Brabus Springs, but i'm really not sure what they do.

Can't edit old posts

I've narrowed it down to the necessities: Sound System, Wheels, Springs, and Xenons... any suggestions on specifics would be appreciated.

My W208 has chrome wheels, and every W208 for sale in the area also seems to have these chrome wheels, so...
