Low-key Iridium Silver E350 Sport Is Our Featured Car of the Month!
Lightly-modded E350 may not have any engine mods but it’s got plenty of aesthetic flair to turn plenty of heads.
Modding in the MBWorld community is just as prevalent as air itself. Whether it is a C63, E63, or a E350 Sport like the one in our “Featured Car of the Month” for March, you’re likely to find something unique. And while a lot of M-B owners go for power mods for big horsepower gains, forum member EuroDriverSD goes with the subtle but boisterous approach.
The OP, who’s real name is Nathan, has spent a great deal of time adding exterior bits to chariot. Borrowing exhaust tips and diffuser from an E63, adding a trunk spoiler, throwing in a diamond grille, etc. Here is the full rundown below:

As a San Diego resident, his approach makes sense; the 619 is pretty laid back, low key and low drama. He’s also an attorney (according to his profile), meaning he more than likely understands how much of a hassle state laws and CARB really are. So his 2016 E350 Sport remains bone stock. But enough with the pseudo-profiling.
Tasteful Body Mods
The OPs E350 Sport looks really nice with custom grille and LED headlamps, however the E63 rear diffuser, exhaust tips, and wheels are what really amplify the car’s style. The 18-inch Brabus Monoblock R wheels have a pretty decent offset and are in a square setup. He doesn’t list the tires he’s using, however we can see from the photos that he’s using 245s. EuroDriverSD has also thrown in a set of Brabus lowering springs, which completes the stance’s look quite nicely.
On the interior side of things, he doesn’t have a lot going on, but the tint definitely adds more class to an already classy Benz.
