I believe the transparent hood shots are just chops?

Take a picture with the hood closed and one with the hood open in the exact same position, and overlay them and chop it.

Congratulations on the new car. Those CLS rims look amazing on the E55, I would recommend to MB that they should start putting those piticular rims on the E55.

I too would go back to the stock grille. Also consider the AMG illuminated door sills Labor part is done, just buy the AMG ones and swap them out.

DUDE!!!
That is one sick RIDE!!!!
Ok, the race is on to see who can get those rims on first. I really didn't want to go 19"s, but the extra width is what I wanted!!
The 5 spoke look is awesome!!

Does anyone know if the AMG 5 spoke rims that come with the standard E upgrades can be got in the staggered widths?

Where'd you get the aluminum foot rest pedal!? We've been searching up and down, high and low for it with no luck. I actually had to custom order one for my E55 (see the picture thread p.12).
