Widebody????
Need opinions people. What do you think of adding fender flares or a not too agressive widebody on the W209. Im thinking of a moderate fender flare for the car, but im not sure if it would be consider too rice or not. Also, im thinking if i do add fender flares, will it flow with the brabus kit. Any opinions would be greatly helpful. Thanks

W209 - W163
Yeah nothing too extreme... just a little bit, some people on the board have done some nice widebodies, but they seem too wide for me, I like the small but noticeable flares.

Go, widebody!
Widebody, cool...
Vik, who are the ones in this forum having the widebody W209? Could you tell me? I am very interested in taking a look.
Tezta, personally I only saw the immitation CLK GTR widebody on W208, so I don't know how the fender flares will look like on your W209, esp. w/ Brabus kit. But I am sure, it will be NICE!!! BTW, after you are done, since you are in LA, may I do some photoshooting for your car and post on my website??? Thank you in advance.

Oops, the photo shooting question should go to BrabusCLK04. Sorry Tezta, you are in HK. I will do your photo shooting when I go to HK in the summer if you are interested.

Slow down... No...
Don't slow down, I cannot wait to see the pictures.
So did you do all the mods in 2 months??? That's decisive and fast, amazing. I hope you are MY customer.
If you find any pictures (w209 w/ widebody), please let me know so I can suggest to my customer as well. Thanks in advance.

Haven't you guy's seen the spy shots for the 2005 CLK500W?? The W stands for widebody. It has perfect fender flares both front and rear and it's only a $1,200 option and available late this fall.
Just kidding Would be nice though, very nice indeed.
