Nice, I would grab one of these over a M5.

I am not digging the chrome wheels though.

It would look bad *** to have some nice powdercoat blk wheels, a 1 inch drop, and replace the chrome windowstripping

Congrats, look nice. Any noticeable difference in power from the CLS55?

Just picked one up too. I was going for the M5 but was not feeling it. Decided to try MB and came home with your twin. It is such a kick to drive. Only got 500 miles on it so far and am about ready for new rears. Good thing my new wheels get here Wed.

Will post pics after new shoes go on.

Nice looking CLS! I like the Maya's a lot but think a slight drop might set it off a bit....

Cool garage too

yeah i alraedy have a call into CEC going with the BRABUS Body kit and may swap the wheels out for some monoblock S's.

What i dig about the Mayas are the centers are like a black chrome/gunmetal and the lip is chome...really looks good in during the day. Plus i really dig the lip in the rear.

Likin the new Benz...lovin the Bel Air (always been attracted for some reason)


...just not a fan of the FJ, unless it has some big off-roading tires and a lift kit

Great choice in cars, your going to love it! I wouldn't use CEC, you can probably save some $$ if use Arling at Lucent. He can get you all of the parts but not the full retail price.

They also make clear side markers to replace the ugly orange ones.
Check ebay for those.
Also the Renntech lowering moudule is the best bang for your buck, plus its adujustable.
I have the Brabus module, I would have bought the Renntech but it wasn't out at the time.

does the Renntech mess with the auto load leveling ride height deal?
