My CLS 55 detail!

[mat8n]

Where is it you had it done?
I live in Billingham, toying with getting mine done or having a play myself?

Yours looks fantastic.

That looks like 500 quid well spent. Superb finish and the silver wheels really stand out.
Are they Vossen wheels?

Thanks once again gents for your kind words. Don, what replacement headlight?? Mat, if you are in Billingham, you are even closer to the detailing place! It's called NECC (North East Car Care) based in Hartlepool, ran by a top bloke called Shaun Butler. Feel free to drop me a call or tx on 07706 542464, if I can help with anything bud, or have a look at it in the flesh.
AMGeed, the wheels are called Stance SC6, 20 x 10.5 rears and 20 x 9 fronts. Powder coated in rainbow silver.

Hi Abb,

Sorry wrong thread, but in a previous thread you mentioned you replaced the headlight, I need to replace the lens on mine too

Car looks great!
An admirable transformation.

The only thing I would say is that, while the wheels were off and the car was on stands, you should have cleaned/ treated the wheel arch liners and suspension components and also painted the front hubs to get rid of the light surface rust. Especially after bringing the calipers and wheels up so well.

I only say this because your wheels have huge gaps, which give a clear view of these areas.

Not picking.
Just a friendly heads-up

Looks lovely, also think the wheels look much nicer in silver. Great result, £500 well spent on the detailing!

Loving the finish, amazing how much clarity and depth a polish can bring to what looked good in the first place.

Calipers look excellent too, I'm trying to get a body shop to get mine done gloss yellow - orange is a nice choice.

Now the hard part is keeping it looking so good!

£500 full English pounds! That was including the ceramic coating.

That's a lot of hours work, expected more.

No need to apologise Don. Did the blackened headlight housing mod on my last set of lights, since then did it again on another set, not before burning the drivers side lens! Ended up having to buy another headlight just for the lens! All done now, new lights in, old ones in storage as back ups. What's wrong with your lens?

You have to buy the whole unit from Mercedes, £800 per side

Nice job. The car looks amazing. Orange calipers are a nice touch

Must be something to do with the drivers side! Lol will let you know if I come across one!

 

[donshl]

Haha yeah, cursed driver side ! Cheers Abb, need one with ils

 

[Abb]

need one with ils

Are you sure Don? I purchased one which was a bog standard light and removed the lens and fitted it to my one which I had burnt! AFAIK the lens is no different, and obviously much easier and cheaper to source a big standard headlight.
