IWC Clock
Chris,
Amazing project. Two things:
1) Why did you paint after you installed the new interior? I would have thought it would have been better to strip the interior, get it painted and then install the new interior
2) Now you just need the S65 IWC center clock!

1. Didnt know when it was going for paint and it is a daily driver.
2. Dont like it. I did the standard facelift clock instead with the chrome star. Looks more exclusive for a S-class.

Amazing!! My only comment was the rear seat wrinkles but it looks like you are taking care of that.
As for the interior/exterior order of operations...better to do the interior ripping out and install first, THEN paint because you risk scratching/damaging the new paint while taking out the interior.
GREAT job! Can't wait to see the final product!

NICE !!!!
WOW, absolutely fantastic work (and on the E55 Wagon). The interior has a "designo" look to it now, so I love that.
What "rare" options does your S550 have?
I am always interested in see and finding out about those types of things and that which isn't always offered here in the States.

In front I will use W211 AMG E55 full set up. I have it laying around.
..In rear I will use SL55 drilled rotors and SL65 pads.

Just for all you so you know..I just got a warning from admin for helping you guys getting these same parts..So I can NOT sell anything anymore if I dont start as a sponsor on this forum. Members loss..Not mine..

Yea, I see paid advertisers should get something for their sponsorship, but on the other hand, if they provided the goods and services no one would need to go to other members to scource information and parts. We could get it all from the sponsors. But that is not the case is it?
