New pix of my 210 E55 with HPS
I finally got my motor cover on. I installed the ML55 cover because it just seemed to look more AMG factory like. I still need dyno number, but over all I'm very happy. Now, I just have figure out how to wash my motor with out damaging anything.

You can wash your motor pretty easily. Simple green, a brush and a water works well. Once you're done, you can use Meguiars Tech protechtant or Back to Black on the plastic.
also...use some paint cleaner on all the painted underhood surfaces. You'd be surprised at how much of a difference it makes.

Your car looked sweet that night when we saw you in the Viper. How much did you pay for your brakes. I'm thinking I might need some with the added HP.
