I still hadn't got to the exhaust. They are priority once I slow down at work.
Here's some pics from the other day.

Damn Phil you work fast! Next and most important thing is Lowering that BEAST..

theres Baller on a Budget route= washers 5.00 and your time
theres conservative lowering = StarD 50-150 apx 1hr
theres lowering links pref. = S-class links 200-300 apx 2hrs
then theres Ballin' Route = lowering module aka ELM 700-1200 apx 1hr

do it any of the above and you wont regret it..

1. Loosen rear license plate. Front one too, if so equipped.
2. Pull plates out about 6 inches
3. Replace E500 with E55 or E63
4. Tighten license plates.

can this also be done with an E550? lol
