Here she is!
Here she is! My newly slightly used E300 4Matic. Yes, it has an OEM AMG 53 coupé grille, and the lower AMG chrome inserts where the vents are. It's a black on brown leather, black ash trim spec with LED intelligent headlights (Amazing and annoying at the same time), and 20% tint all around (including the windshield). So far, no issues other than the window on the driver side not wanting to roll up all the way, but that was a quick reset fix. Gets great gas milage, and is very very quiet especially having the 18" AMG wheels and not the 19's.
What I plan on changing out in the near future:
1. LED Turbine vents from the CLS and newer E Class models
2. I plan on changing out the rear diffuser and putting in the rounded AMG 53 tips
3. AMG 63 Trunk Lip
4. Retrofitting the full LED Screen (I know this will cost another mortgage or kidney but it'll be well worth it).
5. Once the tires wear out, i plan on buying non-run flat tires and buying a spare. The runflats are very very harsh even having the 18" wheels.
Has anyone done anything on their W213 yet? I'd love to see some pictures and ideas!

It is probably my favorite part of the whole car, other than the mood lighting. I just got the de-coding to make them fully work like they do in Canada and in Europe as in the US they "restrict" them.

Regarding "Retrofitting the full LED Screen", be careful. I compared both and strongly prefer the analogue instrument cluster. So I got that and the 12" navigation display. Perfect combo imho.
Tires, I have the 19" AMG-wheels with Michelin 275/35 and 245/40. Michelin is great.

Nice car - congrats. Have to disagree with earlier comment about digital display. It is lovely and much better than analogue display IMO - but I accept it is a personal preference thing.

I got it installed on an OBDII and when you plug it in it automatically reprograms it. I got it from a guy in Russia.
