Nice ride Truviet. Don't feel the star grille though. But then I never do on W210. The mushroom leather interior looks very nice, more interior shots?

I do really like your color tho, and the LED look a lot better then I expected

Grill is too much.
Bi Xenon not available for the W210
Factory xenons nicer touch than aftermarket crap. Much better light as well.
You have kept it well though and looks like it was taken care of. Enjoy it and keep it classy.

LED tail lights I am on the verge of buying taillights for mine now, and wanted to avoid the led look. But you've changed my mind. They look great on your car!
LED all around Where?
Weathertech visors I personally would ditch them
Pioneer dvd deck
15" kicker L7
Power teknique amp 2000 watt Did you have the Bose system?
Clear fog lamps
19" Sterns (looking for new wheels during the mean time) mm yeah. not crazy about them lol

Thanks for looking!
Car looks good though man. Any photos of that head unit set up?

Looks like you live in the east side hills in SJ.
Car looks clean, If you need help with the headlight retro let me know.
I personally would get rid of the visors.
Also the grille I would put back the stock one, not a fan of the big star.

Hey guess what ejsheltra I have Bi Xenon. You are right you cant buy them you have to make them. When I did my retro fit years ago I changed the Depo projectors for Audi Rs6 "Bix"

Make Sure You Dremel The City Light Holes When Pulled Apart To Fit Bigger Leds. Just Shave A Little Bit. These are the ones I did. Also I changed city light plug to wedge style they last longer.
