Hey could you guys point me in the direction of where you're getting your side view mirrors, with the signals in them. I've been googling for the pas two days, and just can not find them anywhere. Thanks for any help, will definitely post a picture of my car soon!
Is that like a different model of the car or is that like a kit I can buy for my e320, and if it is could you point me in the direction where I could buy it. Sorry for being a complete noob with this stuff
One of the reasons why i now joined is that i cannot find anywere the real and original size of disk brakes, for i wanted to replace them for ventilated!drilled disks..
I acctually like it.. Of course, after the priorities i have with the car, i plan to change for some 19''s amg, but for now, it goes to what i am looking for: not flashy but with some detail
Looks Really good. I love the brakes too! I wouldn't mind having a wagon/combi myself. Is it lowered as well?
Thank you, i would advice this kombi to everyone, i mean, i can fit almost 3 meter planks on a v8, not many can say that
It is lowered, i have seen that the former owner has installed H R springs, i don't know how much.. I think he also changed the side bumpers for fitting 18''s.

Yours is lowered and now looks more like an Avantgarde in that respect.
You aren't trying hard enough...I can get work top for kitchens of 3050mm in mine.
Got my H&R springs and Bilstein shocks installed. Used the stock top pads. Maybe, in the future change them? But for now, it'll do. Definitely looks a lot better and I'm happy with the drop! So does my lady and my new born baby girl. Rides firm and handles way.. Better.
And now, I just grabbed some Brabus wheels.
18x8.5 +35 wrapped w/
275/40/18
18x9.5 +35 wrapped w/
245/45/18
Those tires came with the wheels and they still have about 50% tread.
Had to make sure its real.
Brabus Monoblock V
Unfortunately, my lug nuts are too long for the wheel and they rub on to the brake hub. So either have get a 3mm spacer? Or a shorter lug nuts? Still looking around for the lug nuts and Brabus center caps.
I'll post pics when the wheels are on and cleaned up.
Had same problem with w211 e55 wheels, had to take apart my whole parking brake and put it back together. Ended up grinding lugs down.
Although you have made the lug bolts shorter...they are still wrong. This is because the thread and seat are different for 210s and 211s...so look here:

Yikes! That's work just for some wheels. From what I've read through the forums there's a certain lug that will help you fit w211 wheels. As for my wheels? I just need the shorter studs for the rear to just clear the rear brake hub. Thank you though.

Well I tried the stock ones just for referance, i had only moved the car 2 inches before i heard a snap. I ordered new lugs, ball seat and one locking per wheel, and those were still about 2-3 mm too long. After taking the wheels on and off countless numbers of times, i just grinded each one down. No problems to this day, don't know if that's the complete correct way to do it or not, but they are still not the stock lugs and it's worked perfect since.
