Interior upgrade
The interior was a no cost deal, most Mercs arrive in Singapore with the cheapest cloth trim, this saves on various import duties, dealers then change out the trim to leather, I requested this combo after seeing a CL with a similar spec, also there are some new Porche models with interiors like this. The "B" Brabus fixture on the hood and the trunk, and the complete project, was undertaken by Kelvin Lim of "MBM Wheelpower" here in Singapore, he and his team are MB trained, I rate them very highly. The quad exhaust was designed by Kelvin and fabricated by a workshop which is recognised to be the best in Singapore at this work, the rear Brabus apron was modified to accept the system. All these modiifications has drawn a lot of attention here, to the extent that a popular local motoring magazine has requested to do a photo shoot, apparantly this the only CLK here with the complete Brabus mods, most Mercs have the AMG upgrade which makes it quite common. The only upgrade to the engine is a pulley upgrade from Carlsson, this has added that extra grunt to the extent that acceleration and torque are similar to the CLK 320, particularly acceleration, the modified exhaust has contributed to this extra performance. All in all I am pleased with the outcome, I was considering buying the CLS 350, but now I will enjoy this for a while

As for the exhaust, do you use Brabus ML tips? I asked brabus and they do not sell quad exhaust for the CLK. Also, I don't think Brabus has a 'B' emblem for CLK, do you mind telling me how you get it fixed on the trunk and hood of your car? You have a sick car! Must be one of the best benzes in Singapore

I dont know how the "B" emblem was fixed , I was told that 1 emblem was ruined when trying to fix it on the hood, that excercise gave them the clues how to fix it correctly. The tips are Brabus, as I mentioned in my last post this exhaust was a 1 off job, the whole system being stainless steel except for the "cat" , that is original. here is a pic of the exhaust tips, and some other pics also
