Love the audio build. The only thing you need is some carbon fiber love for the interior

Didn't think this was actually going to come out, but the car was featured in "Mercedes Enthusiast" magazine in the December 2015 issue.

took that car down to Hot import Nights in San Diego last weekend and took 4th place overall. was pretty surprised. Thought i had a chance in the Mercedes Category since there were only a handful of MB's, but not the Top 5 overall show, pretty cool...

What did the cars ahead of you look like, if you got 4th?? I would think you would have to be a favorite to win any show you enter.

Love the car

Not sure about 1st place. I heard it was an Acura, total show car that gets towed everywhere. Cant seem to find any pics. But 2nd and 3rd place, these are cars that normally win best of show at all the bigger shows. 2nd was the blue G35 and 3rd is the GTR.

I was actually pretty surprised to place in the top 5. There are so many nice show builds out there...

You built a masterpiece and should have been in the top 3.

I believe the fan base for Asian cars is greater than heavily modded luxury Mercedes coupes. We are rare to make something near perfect better.

I am not sure what it would take to collect a first prize among all the Asian competitors. but a clone trailer queen might make some world records with European entries. Sounds naughty pricey doesn't it.

For the fun and glory do not change a thing. If you need change try vinyl wraps.

Cheers, Gator

Dude you have a near perfect CLK that you drive around and enjoy!

That G35 was wack! been done over and over again, nothing unique or new.

Your CLK is heavily modified which is a rare find.

Have you thought about blacking our your headlights? you did do a great deal in a short time.

Thanks guys! im not really into the show thing as much as a lot of those guys anyways. I think my car is a perfect balance of show and function. I like to drive my car, so there's really no way of doing all the crazy show stuff those guys do..
