New Owner of the 00 E55 !

Helloo, new to the site. Hi there !
So wanted to share my story and get some advices.
I have owned a w210 420 and 430 for the past 2 years. Finally going through craigslist and see a 2000 E55 for sale, my buddies) Called him nxt day, and bought it. its a 2000 Black on Black w/ 145k. drives/shifts good ! SRS light on and CEL comes on for Secondary air and MAP Sensor. Where do you all suggest i should start? I want to make it nice and ride it daily. it does need some TLC. Drivers seats is ripped, Front bumper is broken and also both of REAR 18" wheels are cracked. However I only paid $3000 ........ Im looking to buy wheels(suggest styles) and what other bumpers can you suggest i can throw on it ? Will change spark plugs sometime this week and oil. Let me know what u think ! THANKS

Congrats.

Get the SRS and CEL fixed first. For safety reasons. The rest as you go.

Congrats and happy motoring!
