How does the diamond white that you have compare to diamond white on the CLS or the diamond white on some Lexus and Toyota models?

Thanks, the color the painter went with is the diamond white like on cls but the painter added a little bit more pearl. I dont know much about the other colors.

i think the lorinser skirts look good with the amg bumpers too.

The height is also perfect , what lowering method did you use?

You can realy see the diamond in the first pic , I bet in person its stunning.

Thanks, the original color was stock white, i used lowering links to lower it. Its a really brite color in person and in the sun you can really see the pearl. When i bought the car few years back it came with the side skirts and roof spoiler.

looks good! I think you should upgrade the front bumper matching the side skirts or get the 03+ AMG bumper

Everything looks great except for the plenum cover where I would keep the Benz lettering & sign in black so they stick out. Otherwise, great looking car.
