I have made a lot of changes to my W210 in the short three months of owning it. I am now stuck on what I should do with the tail lights, offer any opinions please???

Ask "Godfather", you should check out his ride.
Not just outside, but killer inside on his real AMG.

i just wanted to post so i could have my avatar beneath no_clue's. but i'll
also add that for some strange reason, i found that i've not liked the smoked
lens rears that i've seen so far. i did get some E55s for my pre-face lift E320,
bordeaux body, but am thinking i prefer the clear. maybe it's because the amber
...when lit...seems like a weak *** pumpkin color.

i know you asked about the tails, but what about the other end? i can't imagine
any E320 whose looks wouldn't skyrocket with the addition of HID clear lens.

lol you want my opinion on this? Ok, get 19" wheels, tuck in that exhaust tip a bit, remove the ebay chrome trunk license plate cover thing, remove the ebay flat lip, and start all over again. and please, no messages,saying I'm mean and ****.

Thanks, no offense taken whatsoever. Rims stay, if I go bigger I'm going to have to go thinner and do not want to do that. Your car is black, your car looks good with no chrome, my car's silver and my license plate frame does not stand out much. My trunk lip? How's your's different than mine? As far as the exhaust, it's the angle of the picture that makes it stick out so far.

Quick question for you, in your aftermarket projectors, are the bulbs xenon or halogen?

Thanks for your opinion

They are HID (or Xenon as you and some call them). How? I had a pair of brand new W211 Bixenon headlights. I took them apart (rather destroy them) and took the projectors with the attached bixenon flaps, the bulb, ignitors and ballasts and retrofitted them into the DEPO W210 aftermarket headlights. Took me an entire day and the help of my friend to do it. By far one of the best mods ever done on my car

They look good. How much did the CF roof wing run you? It's the Brain Cadena right?

I bet even bird**** looks good on your car doc.

Will you ever upgrade to the newer E55?? Or will this car be under your garage for years to come?

It would be fun to watch you mess around with a newer E.

OG's call me Doc :P

I'll upgrade to a 211 55 when I strike it rich I'm pretty sure it would be next...or w220 55

the roof wing is a lorinser replica and the trunk lip is a genuine brain cadena, but none of them are CF.

I think your exhaust looks outta place because it's just snugged under the bumper since there is no cutout for itl ike on the AMG model.

the exhaust tips stick out WAY too much in my opinion. but if you got smoke tails it would match the wheels nice.

Godfather - what if you have OEM HID's but want the DEPO headlights really bad. can the OEM HID be retrofitted to Depo headlight easily or do you really have to hack up alot of stuff?
