What up foolios. Most of you don't know me, but you should cuz Im famous (infamous?)

Anyway, I retired my pimp *** W124 as picture below for a W210.

It's a 99 E320, rear sunshade, OEM stock HID's, heated seats, and useless headlight washers. Black on black.

I got it Friday night. I already put the '02 E55 tails and tinted the windows 22% all around. This week it's getting an add on kit (ckret, can't tell you which ), and hopefully, by the end of the month, it'll be dropped on 19's


The tint is messed up in the back. I gotta have it fixed.




Peep the '02 E55 tails on it

Nice ride, bro. Where did you pick up the AMG rear lights. I live in OC and have been on the lookout for a set. I've looked them up on eBay and they're running a cool $300-350? I was wondering if you got a better deal somewhere in this area? Thanks.

Doctor few tips.

Make sure to check the Crankshaft balancer (damper/balancer) on your car, they go bad causing $3000 damage, Part is $60 bucks and less than 1 hour labor.

Check the motor mounts

If check engine lights comes on p070 it is usually the MASS air flow sensor.

AGAIN, take a good look at the balancer... I changed mine as a precaution.

These are the only things I changed on mine car is great.

Good luck, I saw pic of your w124, nice ride, and I am sure with the rims and body kit you will do a great job, by the way how many miles?

Thanks for the tip, I was already made aware of the harmonic balancer. This week Im gonna take it in for service and have them take a look at it. I was told that a simple look at it could tell you whether or not you need to replace it. Is that true?



The car has 65k miles on it, I paid 22k for it.

simple look...

I dont know about that, but it would be good start.

look for fine hairline cracks on the rubber
start the car and look for slight wobble
look for indent in the rubber, sometime it starts to come out from the rear.

If you see any indication change it.
However, I would try to get VMI from the dealer to see if is replaced.

If not.. It cost $60 for parts and my mechanic changed it in 15 minutes, also if you do it make sure to get a new bolt and use a lock tight on the bolt.

other things such as mounts etc.. have it checked.

Joe,

You should able to get a set of the E55 tail lights for around 240/shipping included. Here is a number to place I know in FL. Check with them to see if they have it in stock. Good luck!
