Updated Pics of my CLK 55
Just had the Brabus K8 bumper installed, also painted the centers of my HRE's Obsidean black. Other details, Carlsson RS suspension, Lorinser Roof spoiler, custom quad exhaust. Not sure what to do next. Kleeman S/c maybe?
Thanks again to Harris for the hook-up.
Here's one with my NSX. Taken before the K8 Bumper was installed.

Love it and the NSX 
Tell me more about that quad exhaust, is it from Harris and how much did you get it for? Did you just cut the stock rear bumper to fit? Did you have to modify anything else?

Hello amazing car.
I like the brabus wheels I guess they are 19inch.
However the front spoiler of the carlson kit is somehthing I can't make friends.
What is the yellow car. First I thought it was lambo but after carefully lookng I realized its a jap car. Is it a NISSAN?
Very nice of retrofitting your exhaust with 4 pipes.

Thanks for the compliments.
The quad exhaust is the stock AMG exhaust modified with an MH Dezent silencer pipe and MH Dezent exhaust tips. I didn't get it from Harris but he can hook you up.
The wheels are 19" HRE 547R's with PS2 tires. The front Bumper is the Brabus K8 not a Carlsson piece.
The NSX (Yellow car) is an Acura or Honda NSX in Europe. It is also heavily moddified. Do-Luck Front bumper, Marga Hills Sides, Wings West Rear spats, Blitz technospeed Z2 wheels, Full kicker sound system, Taitec Headers and exhaust, Comptech Hi Boost Supercharger. It is making 352 rwhp.

I'm not feeling the black wheels, sorry (personal taste, I know) ... to me, it makes the "internals" of the brakes visible, which isn't visually appealing to me. I just like silver better I guess - hides those oh-so-visible brakes (especially with the HRE's) better. <shrug>
Also, what's the point of the roof spoiler? I guess I can see a tail spoiler, but the roof one doesn't make much (engineering) sense to me ...
Other than that ... nice looking car (for a W209, said the W208 driver :p )
(The NSX is a beaut too, always liked those)

Awesome ride, that is one of the best looking W209's I've seen. Those black rims are hot hot hot. Really accentuates the AMG brakes. Love the front/trunk/window spoilers very clean. Can't wait to order my Lorinser window spoiler.

I, on the other hand, love the black on black look. I especially love the exposure of the brakes (not to mention the functional aspect of that).
Nice and clean. Now just work on the motor where possible

The BMW is my wifes, had an IS300 first but after my son was born I opted for the safety factor of the BMW SUV and the 4.8l V8 helped that decision. CLK is my daily driver even through the winter.
Thanks again for the compliments.
