Hi All

My C55 exhaust arrived today, passenger side muffler and tips was to long to fit in car as had AMG cat attached to it so sent straight to bodyshop along with new C55 tyre well. Heres a pic of the heat shields and drivers side (RHD) muffler and tips. While i was in the mood decided to get rid of the 'ALI' running through centre console so am replacing with BEM. Will post final pics when all done.

tudu

Thanks. The Complete C55 exhaust system plus C55 tyre well cost £1134 with discount plus £562 to fit it all at approved MB bodyshop. The Birds Eye Maple came to £151 with discount, and no the sport edition has no door trims all black leather.

I'm just hoping you don't lose power from the setup.

Where did you purchase the wood trim?

tudu

Thanks. Looks more classy than the cold 'Ali'.

I am also slightly worried, but i am looking at buying another MB today if it works out i will use the C55 exhaust setup on that for a 'true' dual setup. Will post later if everything goes okay.

Wow! Good luck with the purchase. Either way, you do get much props for doing the project. Hopefully you do get another MB that'll be more suited for that C55 exhaust. Nothing better than direct piping from headers to exit on a NA V8!

No trims for the Doors?

It's a different game in Europe and the rest of the World...Order what you want to own - not what the US Domestic Market Marketers want you to be able to lease...

If you have the thin line Aluminum interior bits - I may be interested in the console cover - if it will fit a manual transmission - I want to get mine more European with the slider door and less US with the Big Old Cup Holder...YUCK!

Thanks,
and good luck with your project!

Im curious. Could you post some pictures of what the interior portions of your doors look like?

Thanks.

BF_JC230

I bet a lot like this...

tudu

Yes. Buying C32 so looks like the new C55 system will be going on that so will get 'true' dual exhaust set up. I will be keeping my existing C200K.

This is the interior door trim on a Sport Edition.
