Something similar to the S55 AMG (2003+) but sportier looking?

I know that there probably is not one at that price point, but I was just wondering if there was a car similar to the S55 AMG that looked sportier from the outside. By similar, I mean in terms of the horsepower and interior features (Bose sound, cooled seats etc.) Ideally it would be around the same price, but I am ok with it going somewhat higher.

Did you mean sl55 as this is the r230 sl55/63/65 forum? The sl55 w/ 030 or a sl65 have sportier front bumpers, with wider outer grilles widened fog lamp spacing and vents on the sides. All 07-08 models have a revised front bumper and grille on the otherwise same body, again slightly sportier. The post face lift 09- sl65 is much more aggressive, as is the sl63 which replaced the sl55

If you did mean s55, the CLS class is also a 4 door sedan but has a much sleeker coupe-like roofline with shorter overhangs. A 55 AMG trim of the CLS was offered

Hello, I'm looking for the mesh/grills surrounding the fog lamps on the front bumper, no longer available from the main dealer, can you you help?

How have you lowered your suspension? It looks great!
