nice, I know what 189mph feels like on a bike, but it would be nice to fly in my CLS

Let me know the outcome once you take it off. I am in the Bowie area also. 07 White CLS 550.

P.S Did you install the Sprint Booster?

My Man. I think I may get the Sprint Booster to see if that quickens the response time when I hit the pedal. From everything I read, it should.

Also, Is there anywhere nearby I can get some good wheels from. I like yours but don't want to get the exact ones. I want something that resemble the AMG wheels i already have on it, but just chrome.

Most people do the chrome exchange, if you just want the chrome look. There is a shop in Maryland that will take your rims, and replace them with the same ones but chrome. the exchange cost around $800 to $1000

There is a shop that lists this service on Ebay. I got my e320 done up through them. Great results, had them for about 2 years now. I saw a listing for CLS priced at 600 for the exchange.

Take a look:
