2004 E320 with AMG bodykit
I am from Dubai.. It IS him, he's the Middle East rally champion, and one of the most profound (not mention crazy!) tuners out there.
He did this job on a SLK and I saw the images, some people thought they were photshoped coz the hood had to be cut-out and the mightly Mclaren engine was protruding.Went there myself and checked it out, it's for REAL!

I saw this guy on Discovery displaying his car, nice work done. He has a whole stable of cars, and a racemechanic to modify them.

From the pics, it doesnt look as difficult as once believed. Notice the large heat exchanger behind the bumper and the water hoses running to the SLR coolers. Obviously teh bumper has been cut as well as the hood in order to clear these parts. I think people have been scared to cut up their E55's so they just assumed such things would never fit.

Btw US your K4 SL55 uses stock ehaust system with Primary CATS removed and Secondary Cats replaced with 100 cell Kleemann Cats or they are stock ones ???
