W208 CLK55 with R171 SLK55 Brakes?

This was on craigslist in my area. How the hell do you put SLK55 calipers and rotors on a w208 car?

Looks nice!

Have to cut all F & R protective shields,

and if you need full turning, you will need to cut about (3") of sway bar ends, that's all,,

*for more details, see our good friends "Money-one" thread here:-

I read through that thread. The mod is nice but folks never fubar the swabar.

I am sure there is a better way around this. Photobucket links were not working but whacking and welding on a swaybar is a no no.

Cheers

If anyone interested, my friend have 07 "W209 Clk63" F&R calipers,

*Fronts in "Green" color, need to be repaint, cause it has some dents & brake fluid damaged the paint,,

*Rears in "Silver", they got scratches..
