My S550 pics (latest shots)
Just wanted to post some current pics. Lowered my car an additional .25" via SDS at BenzElite in Alexandria, VA. And got it all washed up and waxed here.

It's a S550 with 65 OEM body upgrades, and OEM exhaust. The wheels are the only thing not OEM. Could not find a good pair of Performance Package S65 wheels around so I got the reps. They are great quality and build and AMG stamped. They do come with a lighter silver insert color, I got the gun metal though, matches my car perfectly.

What is it you dont understand? You can NOT order it separatly in OEM..I told you...You have to order it with the rear muflers. Why do no one here believe in me? If you ever find a OEM one then it is cut of from a muffler set. Hard to find and there is no partnumbers for it.

Yup that's the OEM s65 exhaust.
The gizmo in the middle of the trunk is the SIRIUS sat radio antenna, in 2007 the designo's came with them installed this way from the factory. I think they combined the SIRIUS antenna with the roof antenna on the newer w221's.

Here are some video's with the exhaust minus the resonators which I ended up putting back on because it was way too loud with the resonator delete.

weld or clamp. Mine are welded. Just make sure you get them installed by someone who knows what they are doing!
Wheels are 20x8.5, 20x9.5 replica's on Hankook Ventus V12 which are great tires... quiet, great dry and wet traction, long lasting tread too.
