Hi guys,

Well I have made the move into the merc's today and put a deposit on a cl55 AMG :bannana: One thing I am not overly keen on is the wood dash. Is it possible to replace it maybe with aluminum and update it?

Thanks guys Danny
 
Well they never made a aluminium dash option (thank goodness) but what you may be able to get is Birds Eye Maple wood which is black in colour with marbley inserts.

that would look a lot better with it having black leather :) could you possibly point me in the right direction?

thanks danny
 
A lovely car :thumb:

I would hazard a guess that replacement trim is not going to be cheap! It cost me £750 to replace all the ali trim with birds eye maple in my 203 :o

Being a CL its more likely to cost a LOT more especially if your CL has the half wood steering wheel option.

Yes it has the half wood steering wheel, looks like I will have to get used to it then.. My partner mentions a french polisher after all its wood, maybe they could do something to darken it?

Will post some pics as soon as I pick up next Sat :)
 
That unusual as the CL55 did not come with a Wood/Leather Wheel only the full leather wheel.
 
Welcome to the CL55 club :-)

not sure to be honest, it might well be full wood I can't remember.

Picked mine up in March and love it ! are you a Special K boy or normally aspirated ?
