You going to tint the mirror signals? That would give a more unified side view, imho. Car looks good!

I'd also remove the "KOMPRESSOR" from the rear deck too, but that's just my personal issue.

Thanks midnight and tommy. And I already debadged the kompressor those pictures that were there are old old old. Just these two new ones are the recent ones.

And as far as mirror signals I was going to do very light tint like my tails but I wanted to get the updated mirror signals like on the 05+ but I was wondering are they direct replacement or do I need to replace the whole entire housing on my car does anyone know?

I just looked at this myself - they are a direct replacement. It's the E class ones that you have to mess around with the pins on (someone correct me if I've got them backwards or otherwise am wrong).
I bought cannonball's, so I'll be doing the swap myself as well.

The AMG bumper makes a huge difference. Looks much better!

My car didn't come with a "Kompressor" badge, ever. Was told it was "deleted" on order from Germany.

Now finish the rest of it cousin! The rear bumper pops up a lot on ebay, and JBSpeed sells good quality sideskirts.
