We also can do the Star lowering in-house but we prefer RENNtech ELM. We do a lot of Mercedes here and after trying out the bulk of lowering modules out there, RENNtech was our choice. Here is a CLS lowered on a V3 module that we did:

I agree that the Renntech ELM is nice, but the price would probably cost me a divorce.

I will be in SD in september. Perhaps I will cruise by your shop and partake in your service. What do you guys charge for the STAR method? I would PM you about it, but I'm a noob here and can't PM yet.

BTW pic in my sig was taken before lowering.
Where is your shop? I want to lower my cls using star... and how much?

Does the Star method damage or screw up the car in any way? especially when I am only interested in dropping about an inch?

Renntech ELM is the best one but SDS will be the affordable way to lower your CLS.

Star is simple, but Renntech is very adjustable, thats what I liked about it.

If I do not need the adjustable... would the star do the job? and it will not screw up anything? I am a super newbie.... I used to fix up my car... like 20 years ago.... I had a acura integra with gales... hps... etc...

I am not used to fixing up something more high tech, advanced and cost 5 times more money....

thanks for getting back so soon...
