Scrub, do you have the Carlsson rear bumper thing on? Its hard to tell. Your exhaust tips seem to fit up under the car better than mine, so you can't tell that they are tips from the side.
If you do have the rear bumper , does it have semi circle cutouts for the ehhaust?
Car looks great, just needs wheels!

good luck with your new car.
next thing i would do to it would be to put on the amg rims.
i personally like the the 02 rims...less busy than the 03.

Nice car apricotscrub!
I am not sure which wheel/tire combo to put on my car. I have same exact wheels as yours. I am thinking about either 18" or 19" wheels with a 1" drop all around.

Your nice ride might go away with 19 or 20 wheels. It was a ride/ handling tradeoff with my 18's and I wouldn't go any larger unless thev ride really doesn't matter much to you.

someone sold it on ebay for around 300$ i remember, cost another 200 to get it painted and installed, but its a really nice upgrade, theres about 10 more mods that i have sitting in my room that need to get put on in the next week, the new bumper is coming on by friday and rims will be on by next week if the weather is good.

Xenons are factory, maybe they aren't optional on the 2003's or something, but many 2000 S430's I've looked at, the only option it had was xenon headlamps. The bumper looks so much better now its AMG, CHANGES your car.
