The cars out here in socal are nuts. So many amazing builds. Especially when competing against other Euros and not just MB's. When it comes to other Euros like VW, BMW etc, those guys can get anything off the rack, just have to look online. They have so much aftermarket support. But when it comes to MB we have to custom do everything, which makes it a lot harder. No complaining though, its one of the reason's i love MB..

Thats also the thing, All other Euros look the same, especially since you can just pick parts off shelves. A lot of work was put into making your CLK look the way it does and im not surprised you won "some" awards.

whats up guys!, haven't been in here in a very long time. Thanks everyone!

Haven't done much to the car, just added some custom front and rear fiberglass canards made by Chromosome Y in El Monte.

if there is a better modded CLK out there, I have never seen it. The car is a show stopper and i can only imagine the reaction you get when driving it down the road.
