The AMG shift decal is not an OEM MB part. You can get it through Ebay, but be careful, because there are many. It is simply a sticker.
The door pins are also NOT OEM and can be had on Ebay. Atleast the E63 has the black stubs, but the E55s have the classic MB door pins. I hate that. I considered taking the pins out and putting a plug in its place. Who EVER has used those pins?

How so you know the parts are not OEM, his don't have to be but there are AMG parts you can order through AMG Performance Center or a GOOD dealer. The door pins, shift decal etc. are certainly some of those parts. Check this out.

oh totally forgot. The color combo looks great.

Actually sat in the exact same thing couple months back in our dealer ship.
But the seats might have been two tone, which added more contrast
especially in the back.

Love the color combinations, but I think that a car costing nearly $100K should have the third seat match the rest of the interior. That's why I didn't order the Designo Option. Buick did this same thing years ago in their Roadmaster Wagons. No matter what you ordered be it leather or fabric you got a vinyl third seat.

I might be missing something here but the 3rd row seat is in the rear hatch area which is al black so why would you want it to stand out like a sore thumb?!

I've got some AMG door pins that look really nice. You can get them on the UK Ebay site.

The third row faces rearward too where the cargo area is. Wouldn't make sense from a practical viewpoint to have it "white" as well.

Anyway, I love it. My favorite color combination for the E-Class (besides the Graphite interior).

My new AMG forged wheels

Well, as I have not seen any pictures of this new AMG forged wheels on a E-Class, I thought I would just post a few pictures of my car with the new 19” wheels.

Since I got my car, I always thought that the 18” wheels were a bit small for the car. I know there are plenty of 19” wheels out there that are lighter and/or cheaper but I want to keep my car as original looking as possible. I have been waiting for AMG to come out with something similar in design in 19” but nothing came out until the face lifted SL.

Before someone asks, unfortunately I did not have the chance to weigh the wheels before installation, though they did not seem heavy. And I got them from the dealer so they were expensive. For your information anyway, the part no. for the front wheel is B6 603 1067 and the rear wheel is B6 603 1068.

Wow, leather dash and door panels! That is incredible... never seen a leather dash on an E-class. We can't get that in USA! Fantastic looking car.

That is a tight looking wagon and the 19s look right on it.

Any drop? Did you change the rolling diameter at all?

The size of the wheels is 8.5 x 19 ET 30 (front) and 9.5 x 19 ET31 (rear). The tire is 245/35/19 (front) and 275/30/19 (rear). So the diameter is basically the same as stock. The suspension is stock and was set at Sport I when the photos were taken.

BTW, I read somewhere recently that Mercedes just rolled out its 1.5 millionth W211 E-Class, of which only 230,000 were estates. No doubt AMG estates account for an even smaller number, which makes me really happy to be on this exclusive list!!

Thanks again for all the nice comments.
