[QUOTE=b_rashed;2412594]
Parktronics is the parking sensors on front and rear bumper. I find it quite convinient when I drive into my small garage 
While I got this retrofitted, I chose euro bumper strip which doesn't have the orage side marker.(I hope this explains what bumper strip is.)
I got my Folding Side Mirrors retrofitted by Sunil. You can either contact Sunil or Steve for the quote.
I believe that you already have Digital Temp Control since your car is E500 with 4 zone temp control.

The k40 is definitely not a DIY. I took a K40 installer about 5-6 hours to get mine done and they charged me 400.00.
I'm actually getting the exhaust done next week. I've purchased the OEM E55 exhaust and I'm having a body shop do the cutouts and install it. I'll post pics with sound clips some time next week.

The boys over at Sonic MS took care of me today...just ordered Brabus MonoBlock VI 19x8.5 & 19x9.5 and AMG Body Kit. I decided to go the 19" route because of the feel of the ride. I take clients to lunch all of the time so I can't have a real rough ride...if not for that then I would have went with the 20's.
I have to pick an exhaust soon as well...have any suggestions?

Get the AMG exhaust. i can hook you up with the used one. I guess my friend still have it, He has a E55 amg but he change his exhaust to Carlsson exhaust. Anyway. Let me know if you want the exhaust. I will ask him, if he still have it for sale. Do they give u a good deal. Who do you take to in sonic. Maybe we can meet up sometime in the shop. Good luck dude. Anyway nice mod you are going too...

Did the dealer install the Parktronics? There used to be a rear Parktronic kit available as an accessory, but I see they don't list it any more. Can you tell us more about your install?

A FEW, Mark? LOL, who you are kidding. You have one of the most modded W211's in existence. The only other one I can remember having as much stuff as yours is that guy in Russia who even installed the auxiliary cabin heater.
