2010 E550 COUPE
new member from NYC

Sonny Black here. greeting to everyone!
this site is super informative and everyone is so helpful. glad to be a part of the community!
i have a 2010 E550 Coupe that i use as my daily driver. with that being said, my mods will be sort of moderate. lol
currently waiting on my KW V1’s. should have those in a few weeks. i have blacked out my chrome, running an 18” staggered set. was running 19” but these NYC roads are merciless. needed a little more rubber on the road. tinted all my lights w VIVID LIGHT SMOKE headlight tint. going to tint my windows all around to match. Ive been trying to find a gloss black distronic grill. but i may just have to settle for blacking out my grill ( 55tech makes one for the sedan i believe.) also pre- ordered a MAXTON DESIGNS splitter set. ( side skirts, front and rear splitters ) available by November - December hopefully. Also ordered a gloss black rear diffuser from CKM.i just received my MGP Caliper covers ( yellow w black Mercedes Benz engraving ) should install them early next week.
In the spring i will work on the interior. re-upholstering the two front seats in perforated leather of course,. replacing all the wood trim with aluminum, upgrading the steering wheel ( 2016 ) A 10.25” Android widescreen touchscreen. all from CKM CAR DESIGN. i look forward to reading all of your helpful hints and advice.
PS: you guys have some KILLER RIDES !





And in the winter i drive that beast lol

A few updates









Good afternoon to all, Hope all is well w everyone. I’ve done a few minor mods, I am using XPEL PRIME XR PLUS ceramic tint all the way around, including windshield, KW V1’s, MAXTON DESIGNS splitter set, ( valet crunched my front spoiler putting my car on the elevator while parking, not fun. New one ordered and sitting in my storage unit waiting for a nice day to install ) 12.3 Android Head Unit from DMP Car Design. I installed MGP Caliper covers. They didn’t fit the look of the car, ( IMO ) they also had a bit of a wonky fit. ( Front passenger side was just a bit off and sometimes noisy ) I think they look better on a larger sedan or truck. So I had my Calipers and inner rim of my rotors painted.

Still a few more things on my to do list but happy w the results so far.



I also reworked my air intake w Spectre 8471 air duct hose as they were shredded.


New skirt Just waiting to come out and play lol

W the MGP COVERS.
