Thats a steal! Awesome.
And you definitely refreshed it quite a bit. And im so glad that you did away with those chrome wheels. Man were they ugly

I gotta say, you really revived that car... and quickly too. Gave it a 2nd chance at life, and it looks phenomenal man.
i had a similar story with a very poorly upkept black 05 E55. I turned it around 100% but sold it quickly too... being as OCD as im with my cars, I couldn't deal with black paint. That was my first and last black car ever, haha.

Thanks
Thanks man! Yah I've owned 2clk55 and both were black. It was such a love hate relationship. I don't usually keep my cars for that long so we'll see how long I have this gas guzzler.

Take part of the $10k and put a down payment on a NEW C class. No Issues

looks great and questions: Did you remove the stock chrome rings that surround the headlamps? Or just black out the rings? Or purchase aftermarket black rings?
Same question for the grille.
thanks!

[QUOTE=jkiddd33;6993157]I definitely agree How's your 55 Chuck!!!?
My cars all the same.... still the same E55K, old school W210 and W219 55k.
How you like the power of E55 so far ?!

When are you going to consider selling this beauty. What a nice turnaround. Great work.
[QUOTE=jkiddd33;6993281]Ha awesome. I love it! Always loved the chasis and the power is a plus. The sound with the headers n c63 mufflers is nice too!

Very nice car man I recently just picked up an 04 E55 myself recently changed all the fluids, plugs, filters, lower control arms + ball joints, motor mounts. Still has a few little things to do to it but I plan on putting on a heater exchanger bigger pump and tune and either bigger crank pulley or smaller s/c pulley not sure yet.
