CLS63 exhaust
Purchased CLS63 AMG mufflers and had a local shop install them. At the same time the shop had removed the "resonators" and installed a custom "x-pipe" as well as removed the "secondary catalytic" converters for a better sound.
I'm loving the sound as well as the looks! Thought I would share
Now, if I could just find some AMG brakes...

Oh and no it wasn't Royal Muffler. Went to my own source that got the job done in 4 hours.
My GoPro should arrive today. Will post clips some time this week!

Did the rear mufflers increase the performance of the car? Nice retrofit. I want to change my OEM factory fitted dual pipes but thinking if it's worth retrofitting the quad mufflers to a car that did not originally come with it. Can i get a dual AMG pipes that can fit into my car? I live in the UK and i cross shopped around Ebay.de and Ebay.co.uk for pre-owned AMG dual rear mufflers and can't find one at the moment. I got a quote from Mercedes dealers for the parts, paint & labour and everything amounted to £4,973.09 inc VAT. I think this quote is a rip off. Am beginning to think this retrofit will not be possible because of this quote. If you know a certified confirmed website where i can buy these items for cheap, i will greatly appreciate it. Lest and forget, i want genuine parts and not fiber glass bumpers. Cheers!

Is it worth retrofitting the quad mufflers? Hell yeah! They look SEXY! Specially if you already have the AMG sports package on your CLS. My Mercedes dealer simply asked me to get it done outside, lol. They charge $800 for a friggin' spoiler! I think you can get regular exhausts and then wield AMG tips on them. You can find AMG tips for $60-80 online.

How do i know if i have the sports package? If i don't have the sports package, are the quad mufflers found on 55 & 63 going to be an easy retrofit on a standard CLS? Some CLS500 have dual pipes but have the rear bumper that has got a non painted plastic trim on the bottom. Is this the normal sports package? My car has got the normal pipes that are a little spread out at opposite directions while the sports package dual mufflers are pointed directly. Is this it or not? Can't figure out how best to describe this. Help please!!!

Yes, that non painted plastic thingy means you have AMG sports package. Sports package basically makes your car looks like 55/63 amg. Non sports package CLS has a different front and rear bumper and no diffuser on the back (plastic thing). Plus with sports package you have pedal shifters behind the steering wheel. Honestly, dual exhausts on each side look much better when you have rear diffuser.
Btw.. I think Mr.Quantum was kidding :P

@CLS _724,
Thank you immensely for this rapid and precise information. The second sport package picture is the bomb. This is exactly what i want. I don't want the quad pipes, 2 pipes on each side as my car isn't a 55 or 63 AMG. I don't want to be a wannabe while the real engine is missing. Do you know where i can get the the genuine sport package on the second picture apart from the MB stealers? They are quoting me £795.60 for the AMG dual bumper and £1,210.85 for the rear exhaust system. Everything amounting to £2,006.45 incl VAT. While the front AMG bumper+mesh is £1,317.84 incl VAT. This is stealing in a broad daylight. Basically, what this means is the price you pay to be the boss on the road. No way. Is there any spend less short-cut to be the boss? Thanks mate!

Acquiring the genuine sport package rear bumper should be fairly easy as I came across a few State side while looking for a 63 rear bumper.
As far as you being the boss in a spend less short-cut way .. that really isn't being a "boss" at all. But purchasing a pre-owned bumper from maybe a wrecking yard and having it repainted would be a cheap route.
Good luck ...

Ok, finally figured out how to use the GoPro and Upload these large files onto YouTube properly.
2nd video has more aggressive throttle so the exhaust note at higher RPM is heard more so in Vid 2 (uploading it now).
Here is the first video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmbcKLwGZt8
Was on the phone with the owner of Cypress Muffler earlier today and he actually just finished a C class with a C63 rear bumper not too long ago.
He said this exhaust was done from complete scratch and he used aftermarket mufflers and non AMG tips. Wanted to share with you all!

I appreciate your undaunted effort in making this clear for me. Did you retrofit the 2009 comand NTG 2.5 HDD Navigation to your car? Am considering taking off the old comand and
replacing it with the newer model of 2009. Is it a simple plug & play thing or are there other things involved like wire hareness? I know definitely that i need a cable from
Kabeldaviko for the retrofit but is that all? What features will i get with the new command unit? Am considering this purely for the split screen nav, 3D birdview mode, SD slot & the
internal hard drive. What will happen to the SATNAV DVD loader in the boot(trunk)? I think someone on this forum has done this upgrade. I guess a guy from Sweden. Please if you
know about this, i will appreciate if you can shed some light. Cheers mate
