Car is looking dope Ryan.

Not really much you can do with the exterior anymore. When are you going to start on the interior?

Anyways, Hope everyone had a good X-mas. Mine turned out pretty good. Treated myself early this X-mas and purchased myself a Plasma as well. The 42" Pioneer Elite. which one did you get fgtz Ryan?

didn't buy nothing.
just redid my HID wiring with relays and cleaned it all up.
took headlights apart to clean inside of the lens to get rid
of the condensation.
This was for my E420.
The 500e well that seems to be doing fine
so why mess with it

ordered a S600 grill too.
I think I find myself continuing
to mod the e420 even though I keep
telling myself to stop already.
