Pics of my 2012 Gray Carbon Monster

I never post pics of this car, but it's too pretty to hide. It's my wife's daily, and I end up taking it all the time.

I added the Carbon Ceramics a few months ago.
- Catless Dowpipes
- X pipe
- Seibon Hood
- VS style Carbon Lip
- Eurotek rear diffuser
- KW Sleeves
- Mode Carbon trunk lid spoiler

I believe you told me before that you used the KW for a CLS right?

Yes correct. I believe they modify it somehow to work for W212. I love the way they feel.

Excuse the stupid question but do you think RennTech sleeve kit would be equal ride quality? reason i'm leaning towards RennTech is their kit comes with adjustable rear links and is made for the E63, Not sure who you referring to when you said "they" modify it...

"They" are the people that sell it. I'm not sure what they do, but it's a CLS sleeve kit they do "something" to, so it works on a E.

I purchased separate adjustable links for $220 for the rear. I never even installed the KW pre-set ones

Excuse the ignorance but are "sleeves" intended for lowering? What brand wheels?

Car looks awesome!

Just to clarify, you are running a 15mm spacer up front to achieve et35? And how is the fitment on the hood? No hood pins?

That is a pretty aggressive E63! Nice!
And your wife drives it daily?
No scratches on the front lip or scuffed rims ?
No dents on the doors?

Very nice AHI, you went all out on this one. I wouldn't change a thing on the car.

For lowering, this is the kit that works on the E63 and CLS63.

Wow! You just redefined the meaning of "wife's daily driver." Beautiful ride.

Where did you get the front grill from? Will be replacing mine soon due to some minor chips.

Nope I'm +20 with the spacer.

Fitment on the Seibon hood is 97%... Just a little tight where it meets the grill.

I found the grill on eBay. It came full matte black, we took it apart and painted some pieces gloss black.
