Not so many actual compliments but a lot of long looks each day. Pretty remarkable.

I love your W210 except for one thing, that star grill. I think it would look spot on with the stocker, or maybe the stocker with some black paint.

+1, not feeling the grill. IMO, the star grill doesn't flow with the W210 body. Nice ride though.

I also like the bone stock E55 look, the only thing I might do to my car is paint the grill in black since my W210 is black otherwise, I like everything in stock.

It's just some PIAA super white bulbs. It held up pretty nicely with the headlights. My fogs are 6000k though.

I have wanted to try aznoptics LED.

Smoke your side markers. It makes a huge difference. I didn't think so, but now when I stock black E those orange markers really throw the whole look off.

I have included before and after shot for you.

I remember when you did yours. Bought mine the next day . I had the smoke ones painted silver. But I agree big difference from the orange.

Slapped in the new LED lights. Wow AMAZING! Nice find

I'll have to post a pic of them but they match my HID perfect. I just bought these today and will pop them in. I was running these for while until my accident and they both blew. Nice hyper white look to them.

Hey bud,

I'm loving the V12's thus far. Let's see how they hold up on the miles. What I can tell you that the Nitto Invo were a little better on grip but lasted a whopping 9-10k miles. I also drive them pretty hard once they warm up they are great.

My buddy at work bought 20's for his G35. They look good and very low profile as you stated mine are a bit more beefy but don't rub at all and I can still hog a off-ramp when needed

Hope this helps
