Thanks! I'm happy everything went back together with no extra screws laying around. :-)
Next I need to find some decent tires to put my 19s on. They've been sitting in the garage for a couple years now.
Sorry for the over filtered pictures...I just like how the lines are more accentuated.

I posted these on the general w212 photo thread and apologize for double posting here. I'll keep my white w212 mod photos here going forward.
Installed Audi RS4-style wheels on 255/35/19 +35. Stock height.
Added 10mm rear spacers for better flushness. I tried 10mm in front but it was poking out a little, and rubbed on dips at speed.
Good enough stance.

@Jabberwock - I didn't get good pics of the wheels before spacers we're added to the rear. But here are some samples: 255 tire on 19x8.5. Stock height.
Front (no spacers). Almost flush.
Rear (with 10mm spacer). Flush with the top sidewall.

Thanks! I think they go pretty well with the W212 body and the chiseled lines.
Here's an update...I plastidiped and glossified the front hood star black to match the rear. I also wrapped the front grill in gloss black with CF inserts.
Next I need to wrap the chrome window trim in black.
Then I rest. Hahaha...

I put a lot of freeway miles on that car with the grill dipped as well.

Sorry for the delay. It's probably not easy to open the headlights and risk damaging oem housings. I bought the black housing ones on eBay.

oh ok thanks. My E class has factory bi xenon lights already though. I don't think they make aftermarket ones with black housings for mine
