My recent mods

Here are some pics of recent mods I have done on my car. The rear diffuser is a test fit and still needs more work done, but I couldn't part with my car any longer so I will have to return it soon so they can finish. I'm still waiting for my CF front lip, that's still being made. I should have just gone with the one from EuroTeck.
I also got new wheels(iForge Triumph), tails tinted, headlights and sideview mirrors tinted, and I had my exhaust redone. I had to redo my exhaust because it was just too loud for me. So I went with Magnaflow. I'm selling my old exhaust if anyone is interested. PM me.






I also changed out my steering wheel with the sport shifters for the ones with the paddle shifters. I like the how the new steering wheel feels, because it's thicker than the stock it is much easier to grip.

Looks really good...I love the CF parts and how it flows with your whole theme

Rims look sick too..have you thought of getting them powdercoated gunmetal to go with the theme?

BTW, hit me up about the spoiler this weekend!

Damn it man you read my mind! I was and still am trying to do a similar setup with my car. Waiting on my euroteck lip to arrive and then I am headed in the same direction. Great minds think alike. Love what you have done so far. Best of luck with everything! Do you have any sound clips of the exhaust? New or old?

Euro Teck does not have the CF front lip for your car (post-2006 model) yet. Who's is making the CF front lip and rear CF diffuser? I have the same model as your. I would love to have both when ready.

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm not sure if the rear diffuser will fit. I'm guessing it will if you have the AMG package on your car. The made a mold of the CF front lip, but are still perfecting it. They didn't make a mold of the rear diffuser because they didn't think they had enough people that would be interested in it, but I think showing them this thread will change their minds.

I don't have a clip of a my new exhaust yet, but here is a clip of the old one.

Which company is making your CF front lip? Euro Teck is also making one for your car right now. I'm waiting on them too. As for the rear diffuser, I think they are very wrong on this. The rear diffuser became very popular when the Clk 63 BS came out. I definitely want both for mine car.

Thank you for posting the sound clip. It sounds lovely! Beautiful setup, very tastefully done. I would certainly love to buy the rear diffuser if they decided to make it. If you don't mind answering how much did the diffuser cost you?

It's not Euroteck, it's a shop out in LA. EuroRev

That's still up in the air. I'm hoping that he will make a mold and give me the the diffuser for free. I'll give you guys an update.

I know that shop and the owner. The owner name is Robert. I thought about doing the front lip and rear diffuser with them when I first got mine car but I can't thought about a second shop to keep mine car for weeks. Eurorev does not make these mods in house.

I don't know who Robert is, but I thought Vince is the owner.

What if you only have one sided exhaust like the 2003 CLK55. I guess the rear diffuser wouldn't work then huh?

You right, Robert is no longer with Eurorev and Vince is the sol owner of Euro now. I just spoke to both of them. Not sure if you already know but your carbon front lip should be ready by this weekend. I'll be stopping by the shop to check out your car around 1 pm this Saturday.
