Hi, I believe any AMG (not sure Ml's) calipers will fit, the 2006 E55 fronts requires 2-3 mm spacers to adjust/center them to the C/E63 girodisc rotors, the rears were smooth w/ the GLK's own parking brakes inside the larger rotors w/ the E55 rear calipers....
What set up did you go with the suspension to lower yours and how is the ride quality
Thanks
...if I may, I have my 2nd GLK w/ H&R's (-)1 inch with Bilstein B6 shocks and rear camber adjustable arms to save rear tires wear - not too stiff but, the front shocks always hit their limit/bumper anywhere in Brazil's poor pavement....I may need to study if a shorter front B6 (really like the Bilsteins') pair from a W204 4Matic may solve that as they seem to have same fittings; if anyone may know/have shocks from a W204 4Matic front shock to compare side by side w/ a X204's to help me on that, it'll be much appreciated
I am new to this platform and looking forward in learning some DIY I am already thinking of doing an interior wrap on this one because I dont care for the brown wood trim. I need to find a thread on how to remove the interior trims without breaking anything. (:p
Good morning, there’s a video on youtube under lcd screen installation. Looks good

My wife finally decided that it was time for a different car. Sad to see this one go and wanted to share it in its final form with the exterior cosmetic changes.
Upgrading to the appearance package bumper was a long-time want, but never had a reason to do it until somebody caused some damage to it one night while it was street-parked. The appearance package bumper is no longer being made, so I was lucky enough to find a used one in good shape and have it resprayed.
Lowered on H&R springs and added a set of S63 AMG wheels (last picture).
I picked up this low-mileage, one-owner GLK350 a couple weeks ago. This is my first German car, so I’m definitely learning a lot! So far I’ve only swapped exterior lights for LEDs and tinted it. I’ve got brake rotors and ceramic pads, just gotta find the time to put em on.
Here is m 2010, some minor useful mods and wheels off the 2015 GLK since the original ones has some scuffs.
Windows visor
Blacked out the sliver grill
2015 wheels
Blacked out trunk emblems
LED amber floor lighting
LED lowbeam
LED license plate lights
Ceramic tint
Sport pedals
And of course maintenance
Hey AzCamel, I know it's been YEARS since your post but do you have any pictures of the blacked out front grille you could share?
I just got my GLK and I'm thinking of doing it, if I could see a couple pics rather than plasti dip it myself, that would be best haha
Thanks!
Put in a new grille. Bought it off eBay. Maybe an hour since this was my first time . I just didn't like the two bar grille, seemed too heavy looking in my eyes. Plus this now looks like a newer model.
I bought the GLK a couple months ago to replace my trusty winter beater (Subaru Impreza hatchback). It was our first day with snow last week and although it is a half ton heavier, the GLK performed better than expected once the winter 17's were mounted. The HVAC system is excellent. Let's see how she does in -25C...
First world complaints: The heated seats are a little slow to come on, the heated steering wheel gets a bit too hot and it takes the transmission a few km's to warm up. Summer Mode Winter Beast
