For the record, it's not right with that grill... but then to each their own, I always say.

Dude... Create a "signature" in the User CP area. Throw in a little info about your car & its equipment. When you post a question down the road, the info will help readers know what's in the car & how to respond to your question.
Enjoy the car. Its an awesome ride, and the info you'll pick up here will surely enhance your ownership experience. This is pretty much the only Board of its kind, with good correct info AND good people.

Welcome and best of luck! Couple of things; as mentioned the grille somehow takes away from the overall design but hey, if you’re happy we’re happy; excellent color choice; and (I could be wrong on this) isn’t that a 350 bumper? First picture is a ‘06 500, second a 350.

Thank you...Thank you ALL for a warm welcome.
I will have many questions to ask later on down the road.
There is no place like "MBWorld" for advices and suggestions.
Again, thank you so much...

So trell us the story... Why the appearance rims and not the package? Was it new? Any other mods, besides the grill? When are you tinting the windows?
The E500 is an awesome car. you will love it. The first time you get in at night is just awesome. Don't sweat the money. I got 3 new cars and just quit my job. I hope something works out. Haha. In the mean time I just drive and drive and drive. What options / colors, etc.. DETAILS!! PICS.

I LOVE THOSE WHEELS... DON'T "Mod" them off the car man,.. the Grill is enough tinkering with perfection.... do the rest "under the hood" where it actually makes a difference in the performance!

Whichever one is available (1 of 5)
Congratulations on your new toy. Broke, but alive, that's what counts. I just love your flat emblem and grill. The grill gives it a power look. My 2004 E500 has the exact flat emblem and grill like yours, and I got them from formymercedes.com. It's your car, you do whaterver you wish with it. Other people's opinions are just theirs. I can paint my brilliant sliver color to Mary Kay pink if I want to, enjoy it.

I think you can picture them without the pictures.
