I picked these up in Tokyo.

As you can see the parts are black. They fit into the E63 bumper very well. It comes with mesh.

I chose to have the parts painted black but my buddy who did the install decided to go with body color and I am glad he decided that.

The lights are wired to turn on as soon as the car is started. So basically they are on all the time. They dim slightly when the headlights turn on.

Very good quality kit from WALD. I am glad I waited to get the E63 bumper after the WALD kit came out.

Here are some quick iPhone pics.

An accessory picked from the accessories available in Japan.

Small net that attaches underneath the glove compartment. Handy for small flat items. Connects into the plastic piece.

She's only got about 48,000 miles. Just a teenager.

I haven't been able to drive mine as much as I want to but she's been good to me so far. I'm sure you take care of yours just as well. I need that shifter!!

Wow, VIRGIN at best. I bet she does her job well, I don't usually hand this out very often, but she gets me CERTIFIED PANTY DROPPER stamp of approval.

Congrats homey!

Thanks man! That's a lot coming from you. I need a badge that says: "Certified Panty Dropper" from you now.

I wish I could enjoy the car more, but living overseas doesn't help. And there is no way I will ever bring this car to China. The drivers there are CRAAAAZY!

Looking good Taison!

Didn't realize you live in China now. And the fact it's been 9 years! Although your car doesn't look like its aging.

This is still the cleanest example of the W211 AMG's.

Love all the new mods

Great build

Do you mind sharing the part # for the Birdseye wood shifter surround? I ordered it twice from my local dealer and it came wrong both times, they sent the one for the 05-09 models with the sliding console. I have the folding console like yours and have distronic as well and I am tired of staring at the silver piece myself.

Thanks guys!

I'll have to see if I can find a part number for the shifter surround. I'm not sure if I have it though since I bought i from MBenzNL and he knew exactly the part to get.
