Ummm--I think that was probably the most entertaining post I have read..>I was excited keeping track of all the stuff you did.
Let me throw in some opinions...Really would look into some carbon fiber parts...Maybe front lip would look sick and tint up the windows.It always makes the car look sleeker.
Wheeellllssss!! I really think some custom work wheels or some HRE's would really set it up nice. Huge lip staggered look with painted centers and polished lips..
I think the last thing I really like about these cars is when they paint the roof or carbon fiber wrap it...
I know it sounds crazy to suggest this to someone but you seem to have no end to the source and have great taste...__Forgot to throw in a big break kit with black calipers!!

thanks...
no CF lip, rims with big lips cuz my theme is to look at OEM as possible.
i might vinyl wrap the roof but will see...
factory brake kit comes with 8-pistons already...

Nice job on the mods - Just curious, do you know what the bulbs ID numbers are for the city lights and for the license plate lights? I've been looking for a set for my E55 and can't seem to find em

By the way, SL65 wheels look amazing for the E55 i had a set on my SL55 and loved them, beautiful wheels

What a great project! Very clean and OEM Galore I didn't know Mercedes even made those parts.

Question, where did you get all of this work done? And how did you get under Suicide Bridge?
