Hey everyone being a long time forum member mostly in the w220 section, I wanted to properly make my way over to the w210 section. Last month I picked up an 02 E430 with 21,421 original miles (not a typo). Quite possibly lowest miles car in the country? After 1,000 miles I'm absolutely in love, the car still smells brand new and drives even better. Cars like this are why I love old people! Just got the windows tinted 35% all around, wired my tape adapter through the back of the radio, and up next I plan on having the roof wrapped gloss vinyl black (mostly to protect the paint on the roof but goddamn will that look good lol) and after that I plan on removing the sec. cats & resonator and installing an x pipe, AMG monoblocks down the road. Just some tasteful mods, nothing outrageous because as some people forget, this is a Mercedes Benz
Your mod description makes me think of mbworld member Baleron 's car. Not exact but some similarities. Anyways, congrats on your minty e430 and welcome to the w210 section
Thank you! His E430 looks all but how I want mine to look, a great looking car. An old couple had it as a third car and garage kept the whole time. Dealership put on new Michelin pilot sports before I got it, handles like a dream
I would advise against the black wrap for the roof. It doesn't look good from the front due to the curvature of the rear glass. When the black wrap meets the rear glass, it will not be a straight line (which is desirable) but the black will spill into the larger rear glass and not look straight.

I see what you mean, its costing me $100 to get it done so worst case scenario I just take it off. I really like how much more custom that makes the car look, lots of silver w210s roaming the streets

Please do share the pics when you get it done, I have been wanting to do the same on mine. Even though other members have warned against doing it and I respect their opinion, however I think it should look great, will see!
