I have a 2000 CL 500 - and did some searching on lowering the "ABC" suspension with a "module" made by Eibach. That module automatically lowers the car .9" in the front and back. Eibach's module isn't adjustable in any way and carries a $1,100.00 price tag. My question is: I want to lower my car a little more in the front - is this possible with some other modification - possibly through Mercedes because the suspension is all controlled electronically anyways?

you would also need a romness gauge for measuring the ride height in degrees. i tried to do this once on a cl65amg but the electronic ride height sensors wont allow the ride height to be stored in the ecuas they are out of there specified voltage range at lower ride heights. i did look wicked though sat low on its 19inch split rim amg wheels
