Hey Everyone!

I am new to this forum and I recently bought a 2008 clk350 and live in LA/Orange County Area. I am looking into doing a few mods to the car, can anyone help me? I been talking to a few people and all I been getting is negative comments like...modifying the engine, lighting, and exhaust of the car will cause the computer to signal failing of the engine or lighting, depending on what mods I have done. Anyways, here is what I want to do...

1. 19" rims
2. AMG rear spoiler
3. dual exhaust system
4. mod the ecu to gain hp
5. all around body kit (preferably add-on)

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Congrats and Welcome!
While there is always a risk when it comes to modding, you can minimize the risk by buying quality hardware (with excellent customer service) and finding a quality shop to do the installs (beware of the Stealership and Mercedes tax).

As far as your list (with my links where applicable ):
1. Yes, check out the picture thread for some wheel ideas.
https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...installed.html
2. Yes, I believe Dynomite has one for sale, as well as JBSPEED, then there is the CLK Black Series spoiler lots of us are running....
https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...installed.html
3. Yes, plenty of threads detailing this mod
https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...ed-clk500.html
4. Yes, several companies to choose from
https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...g-usa-ecu.html
5. Yes, also several companies to choose from. I went the bolt on route with a bolt on front lip and rear diffuser (my car came with an ///AMG body kit from the factory).

I kinda like the Profound. Also, how can you go wrong when the tagline is;

"Dignity of profound rules the universe..."

That was deep, insanely deep.
