I'm personally not a big fan of modded cars especially ones like the s-class. But after traveling in London I saw some really nice modified benzes and I'm considering doing some minor mods to the car like tinting the lights and such. Any mods to your s550s that you guys really like or dislike?

Since you have a 2007, I would definitely do the LED taillights. IMHO, that makes a huge difference. Maybe a roof and trunk spoiler if that isn't too much for you. If you want to go a bit more aggressive, wheels and a drop.

It would be cool, even on a 2010, to find a way to add some kind of led lights to the front, that blend in and look cool. But that's hard to do.

I have 2010+ and love it. Already have the leds. Just was saying for others, if there was an easier way, would be nice.
