Really nice! I wrap exotic cars, and other things for a living. Looks really cool! I just got a CLS55, absolutely love it! I like the chrome trim, grille and chrome lips! I did the brushed wheels and polished lip thing, I always go back to chrome. I got the 3 piece HRE 943's with the chrome lips.

I see you already did the trim black. Looks good also! Nice ride! Did you do the Halo's on your headlights?

Decided to keep the black trim and just dropped off my wheels for powdercoating. They will be color - matched matte Grey centers with gloss black lips.
Halos are done and installed. They were done by Juno from Modders Only in so. cal. He also painted the housings black for me. He did an amazing job!

Nice! Post some close up pics of the halos when you can. Which one's did you buy? 2 color? Did you get the remote?

Bud, that grey wrap looks bloody awesome! I have considered wrapping at least once with every car I have owned, but the CLS is really the only one that has the styling capable of pulling it off!
As for the wheels, matt black if you can!

That's cool! I'm gonna do mine. I got a little nervous because the first step was to preheat your oven to 250 then put your headlight in and bake for 15 minutes! lol

I'm in love.
Still want to drop it more with the lo-mo1 elm.
The ride is great thus far. Took it to 80 on the way home with zero vibrations/wobble. Had them road force balanced.

I am really surprised you haven't upgraded your tail lights with newer LED .
Not sure about blacking out star and taillights, i guess its matter of personal taste...

Black trim is going backwards......barf.
Although I'd suggest new wheels anyways.
Edit, just saw the update....you really think black headlights look good? The before pictures were much better IMHO.
