Ok so its been a little over 6 months, but I've gone slower.....here was mine 4 days after I picked it up in Jan 07


Heres my list (Not in order):
  • Debadged
  • 35% Tint
  • Chrome Mirror Covers
  • Chrome Door Handle Shells
  • S-Class LED Tails
  • Clear Side Markers
  • Chrome Door Pins & Surrounds
  • Chrome License plate holders (front & back)
  • Custom White LED Mirror Blinkers
  • Illumina Puddle Lamp System
  • Schatz Shift Knob (Chrome & Laurel)
  • 2005 Chrome Grille
  • Staggered 19" Chrome Giovanna Ararats
  • Clear Projector Headlights

Lighting:
  • PIAA Extreme White Plus Headlights
  • PIAA Extreme White 194 (Everywhere possible)
  • Sylvania Silverstar Foglights
  • Completely white turn signals (Front & Back)
  • Hyper White Reverse Lights
  • Blue LED Footwell lighting
  • Changed the blacklight LEDs to blue to flow with footwells
  • Hoen License Plate Bulbs

And here it is now:


Projectors (which hopefully I will get rid of soon):

And here is a night shot with the puddles, I would eventually like to redo this mod:


Special thanks to everyone who has offered advice thus far!
