Anyone take this on them selves?

I did this with the evoklass kit which is the same deal. Easy as pie. Did the front and rears in about 2 hours. Rears are obviously just lowering links on the w218 cars.

Did you need to bring them in to get the springs on or off?

The front shock assembly? No, but I have a coil spring compressor. You can rent one from AutoZone if you don't have one. Don't need one to put them together, but do to take apart the stockers.

Perfect, thank you!

No problem. If you decide you want to do it let me know and I can help you out with a video chat or something if you need it. I can tell you the springs and tools you'll need so you don't end up taking it apart and putting it back together 3 times before you actually get it all accomplished, lol.

This FB group has a guy selling HR springs and rear links for an E63 that'll work with your car for $450 canadian. About $337 US. Not adjustable up front but should give you a 3/4" front drop if that's good enough.

I looked at those as my first option, but I really want the ability to adjust the height.

This was literally one of the easiest mods Ive ever done.

I think putting on stickers is slightly easier, but only slightly. Post some pics of the finished product.

Quick VR-4

Just wrapped up installing this kit on my 14 CLS63 AMG-S. There was another member with a write-up on installing H&R Springs that I went by that was extremely helpful. Took about 3-4 hours per side because the KW Sleeve kit required taking the AMG strut apart and removing the factory spring perch. Hardest part is compressing the springs because that can be a little more on the dangerous side since it is practically a ticking timebomb due to the pressure. Anyone with basic tools and wrenching skills could do this no problem. Rear is sitting a little high in the pic due to angle of driveway, but like the overall look much better than the 4x4 look from factory.
