Looks pretty good right now.

Debadge the e320, add the sport trim, upgrade the headlights, lower it.

Hey, man, a lot of people would love to have their e320 look as good as yours does. "To each his own," but maybe you're at a point where it's a good idea to "leave well enough alone?" Just a thought.

Your right its at that point that if I mod it anymore I might mess up the look. Thanks

i was satisfied with my 1999 when i bought it. then i started to browse the forums and stepped over into the Dark Side.

Hi, I've followed your thread on Depot retrofitting and thought if I can you where can I find a set of plans in order to install a set of OEM xenon headlights on my e320 with halogen wiring. Is it just a plug and play if I bought a set of xenon headlights. I know people have done it but can't find the actual how-to plans. Any advise? Thanks in advance!

I would lower (not slam) it, Flat hood emblem, nice (not chrome or black) 18" wheels, maybe remove the rear "E320" badge. Clean or upgrade headlights

Will look in depth on the headlights and lowering it when I have free time to research. Thx

update the tail lights.

switching over to OE HID shouldn't be hard at all if you have basic electrical
knowledge.

key issues:

• your car does not have the auto leveling mechanism and it is laborious and a little costly to source the parts off a junker and retrofit to your car.
• another thing is that you'll need to wire in the ballasts into your existing wiring harness. while you're at it, it wouldn't hurt to splice in an inline fuse to each headlight
• the HID should bolt right up and your existing plugs *should* plug right into the available jacks. natch, the auto-leveling jacks will be unused
• the HID's D2R bulb is not as good as current generation bulbs/HID lighting and you'll only gain about 30% more useful lighting
• the HID outer lens are near impossible to source so when they become clouded due to pitting and UV oxidation, your only recourse is to polish, or pay hundreds to pull off an HID lens....but by then you may as well just buy the old/used assemblies. so consider putting on an 3M et al, applique to help protect from insects, airborne particulates, and UV. may run you about $50 and most likely found at auto-tint store.

i've not done this mod so not really in a position to give useful DIY advice

Thank you very much for your time and information about this mod and the key issues involved. Now I can make an educational decision.

id say lower it, and either get the facelift mody mods, or even the e55 body kit. clean headlights and 18x9 OEM wheels

AZN Optics

We have the D2S HID bulb if you're looking to upgrade to OEM HID housing. Or alternatively, a cheaper approach would be to do an HID projector retrofit, using your existing housing and wiring and plug in an H7 HID conversion kit. We carry top shelf Morimoto units which go a long way towards better illumination and modernizing the car with whiter lighting.

Also, your inner housing city lights can be swapped with our H6W mini-bayonet LEDs and rear plates with our 36mm festoon LEDs to complete the exterior lighting. Simple plug and play.

Bag it!!!!

Just kidding. There's a guy on here selling an H&R cup kit, which I was originally going for a few years ago. It lowers around 1.8" for the front and I think 2" for the rear. Get those and some monoblocks, and you're all set!

Look up "badwayz w210" on google to see how it looks with those H&Rs and 17s.

andy5

Do you know his username or link to the thread that he has an h&R cup kit for sale because I did a search and came up with nothing.

Thanks in advance!
