Whats next MJ? Do you think my w215 CL65 19" wheels would fit on my E55 wagon? or was the SL65 wheels a different offset? Why did you remove them? Looks great.

Brake Calipers - Painted in Burnt Copper with Custom Decals
inspired by AMG CCB, but didn't want to be a poser and made necessary adjustments in the decal...

decal size and fitment came out pretty nicely...
decals on the rear are slightly larger than original...

Could you be troubled to provide that decal template? Looks really good! You and I are probably one of a few to have the OEM European 63 front clip on this side of the pond. Great taste.

when you put in your coilovers, how did you take care of the error code it throws from unhooking the air ride? I got a E55 AMG with BC coilovers and it's throwing the code for the air ride. Help!
