**still can't find a viable SL55
Any way to convert '07/'08 >> '10?

Hi, I know this question may seem daft, but is there any way to make the 2007 or 2008 E350 look like the facelifted 2010? After comparing photos I'm assuming no- or at least no way without making it cost more than just getting a '10. Thanks for any help.

I would say no because the 2010 E is basically a new car altogether and even in doing so it wouldn't be worth the hassle.

Yeah thanks for the help, not long after i posted this I found someone just making W212 foglights fit a W211. In hindsight I'd probably just be better off saving up for a W212... or lease one- this project would be cost prohibitive and even if I did get it done... I'd essentially have a poser 212 > reducing resale value to way below a stock 211. I have no idea how to delete threads so if a Moderator could, that'd be great.

The front clip of a 212 on a 211 would look like the most mismatched thing in the world, it would look utterly hilarious and barfable at the same time.

Someone please do a Photoshop.
