My CLK55 AMG
Finally, the weather was a bit nicer today, so i was able to wash my car, even though the roads were still wet.
I promissed some pics. So here si my second girl.
Basicly it is stock, but i've got a full list of mods to do. The 18" OEM wheels is my winter setup, got 19" for summer.
Today, i've changed the xenon bulbs for 8000k, LED parking lights and LED license plate lights. I have akebono pads all around and that should be it so far. I bought the car in November, but with the winter here, it is really annoying to do any mods.
I made an appointment in an exhaust shop for the custom quad exhaust, i'll post details later. Just waiting for the OEM AMG tips to be delivered.
Other upcoming mods (Wishlist):
Quad exhaust
C63 diffuser
LED tails
Wrap the interiour in carbon fiber
Paint all the chrome in black (maybe the inner housing of headlight, just like my W211)
Paint calipers red
K.A.W. Lowering springs (50mm front, 35mm back) - i hate the gap in front with H&Rs
H&R spacers
BMC air filters
Tint
Everything costs some money, so hopefully i will be slowly moving forward with mods.

That's a super clean looking 55 mate! It's going to look stunning with the headlight reflectors blacked out and some tint on the windows. That should be your sig pic, the E is a sweet ride but rep with the AMG bro!

The car looks really good Michal!
I think you should keep your calipers silver, they look great with the black color.
I know red color stands out more but I like the silver AMG calipers, less is more:-)
One mod that should be nr1 after the quads is the face-lifted taillights.
It looks awsome!

About the calipers, the main reason why i want to paint them is, that the previous owner painted the front ones in some sort of gold color. And that doesnt suit the car at all.

You are right LED facelifted tails are on the list, just waiting to have them in stock again in europe somewhere. Seems like they are sold out for a while.

Either way I'm sure It's gonna look great!

Same here in MA you need to show a front license plate at all times.
Our plates are pretty ugly and dont give out the pointy look of the CLK
I think i will mount it somewhere else or maybe do a hideaway plate...

Lol that sucks. Here in NJ, you have to have one on at all time also. Since I put on my AMG I have been without a plate and haven't been bothered once.
