What is a reasonable price to pay to get this done??

Depending on your area anywhere from $500-1000 with $750-800 probably being the average.

Thats actually a great price for a coating with full prep around here. Lots of places charge upwards of $2,000...

Yup, paint correction is the main pain of this job as you know below 2K is amazing.

I should clarify. For a SHOP to do this yes $2k is the going rate. For a guy with a truck, $1000 is on the high end. Obvious overhead differences.

A few pictures of our S560. The only modifications are the addition of wheel spacers, and dark blue Lloyd’s floor mats. Just took a trip to Houston from our home near Jacksonville Florida. These cars are made for trips like that. The self driving features, massage seats, and the overall comfort makes long distance drives very enjoyable.

Those mats look awesome in that interior! I have the same mats in black, they are so nice under your feet. The MB mats are pretty terrible...

Random photo of the day. I haven't washed the car in two weeks, but the ceramic coating made short work of the rain and some of the mud from two days ago.
Colour is Anthracite Blue and by the way, I also had the dealership fix that broken silver bar in the camera door in the front for CHF 100 (not too bad).

No AMG kit, just like mine! You lowered it somehow did you?

Yes, I did, with mwmods's OBD2 thingie. It was important for me to be able to easily (and quickly) revert the lowering, prior to visiting the dealer and so far it has worked well enough.

The wheel spacers are so critical. And the Euro ride height.

Which wheel spacers did you go with?

12mm and 15 mm I had them on our e450 wagon and took them off when we traded it for the s560.

Yours is pretty much identical to mine. Color, AMG pkg, wheels, and even the updated grille. But I don't have tinted windows, spacers, or lowered module. Mine also came with the lip spoiler. She sure is a beauty!
