Lots of new mods!!

just installed a new grille and a custom exhaust. the exhaust is pretty damn loud. it easily sets off other people's alarm. i had to go custom because none of the after market brand name one's are loud enough. i will post a vid of how the exhaust sounds when i get my hands on a nice camera.

sorry about the crappy pics, i used a cellphone camera to take these.

Looks great! I prefer to see a deeper lip on the rear wheel on CLS's, but the car looks good. you should use your camera phone to make the video.

peace.

thanks~ i am actually cool about the lip coz he does make the wheels look bigger from far away hehe. i think of slamming the car more. but the thing is, i to take it on the highways to do runs and sometimes the roads are wavy. i will rub like hell~

thanks! you are right, after i put on the grille, i wanted some black rims. but in the end, i love chrome. haha

im done with this car for now. i still need to post a sound clip of the exhaust. it's loud! my next project will probably be a ford mustang or a nissan rx-7 fd.

Nice mods, Your CLS is pimped out

You just need to tint/black out the orange sidemarkers and it will be perfect

hi~ for the wald lip, i just ordered it from a local shop here in vancouver. if you know anyone in japan, it would be sweet to buy from yahoo auction japan. you can get the whole front, side, rear for around 1500 US (not including shipping)

but just to warn you about something, the fitment on the wald kit sucks badly. if you plan on molding the kit onto the car, it should be fine. but if you plan to just stick it on, it's a little hard. i don't like molding coz i believe that i should be able to take out the kit and swap it for something else anytime.

good luck~

p.s. the wald lip will only fit on the CLS 350 or 500 with no AMG kit.
