why do people do this? Fine, he wanted the updated look and that is fine and all is good there. Actually did a good job with the conversion. BUT why change the E55 badge to say E63 and the side badges to the 6.3 AMG badges. whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

he's an idiot

+1 Seen this the other day, and thought the same thing.. Who do these people think there fooling?

Why you ask? Because they're douches

He's not even good at posing...lol. So many things done wrong. Wrong rear spoiler and wrong wheels.

W211 BEAST

And forget that, but why in the hell would someone spend that much money (new rims, new front fender, new trunk (at least part of it is new) new rear lights) just to make it look like a newer car. Are people really THAT shallow?

i'd have to disagree dude, he did EVERYTHING correct minus the rims/spoiler/fake pano u mentioned. looks nice but the badges = fail

jikjak

would have been nice if he didnt put those badges on.
nothing wrong with it being a 55!
i actually prefer that engine
but i still have much love for the 63!

Yeah- that really confuses me. You already have an E55- no reason to pose as an E63. I mean really- it would actually make more sense if he had a non-amg E that he did all that work to. The 55 is already a badass machine and doesn't need the looks of an E63 to be a baller car

resale on that car is in the tank.

Something is either wrong with the hood or head lights.... in that picture, the passenger side head lamps have an un-even gap and seems to be larger than usual

lol...whether you state it in the affirmative or the negative, he's still bad at posing

thats actually the nicest e63 conversion I've seen until you guys pointed out the odds.. i guess i have ADD

heel yeah!!

acuteperformance

Same thing I asked myself. Wow.

emoving

That car looks great! Just remove the badges and you have a awsome E55 to start modding!

Quite interesting, the E63 was bashed when it came out and now E55 people want to be like it.

What's up with those wheels? I've never seen those as OEM on any E class AMG. I understand the desire to do the front bumper conversion and wheels, but the roof and trunk spoiler look horrible, and he should be shot for rebadging to an E63. Like everyone said, an E55 is "baller" enough.

Funny enough, I saw a CLS550 this morning in Paramus, NJ that the guy had rebadged to a "CLS63" and "AMG". Is this a NJ thing

Maybe some E55 people, but not all of us. When I decide I want the E63 look (and degraded torque range), I'll just buy an E63.

The car was probably in an accident, that would explain the gap as well as the entire conversion as a whole. For the cost of the conversion he could have sold the 55 and bought an actual lower mile 63 for about the same out of pocket cash.

I saw this car about 2 weeks ago on eBay and I thought the same thing.... I would bet that this guy either rear ended or was rear ended and pushed into the car in front of him and had to replace everything. I like the front end conversion but I have read that they don’t match up as smooth as we would think… ie. Gap from hood to headlights.

Anyway…. The guy needs to be kicked in the twig and berries for being a *****!!!... and then you should tell him for his next project he should turn a Fiero into a Lambo….



...and badge it V12!!!

someone run a car fax on this thing, I bet it's been in an accident.

i love all this "badge bashing" on these forums but im willing to bet half the guys that start these "the guys a douche" comments or the "kick them in the *****" wouldnt even make such comments face to face.Not trying to call anybody out but im always lurking these forums in search of good mods,help on issues with our cars,and if I can to help out a fellow mb owner,but these posts just keep popping up,I swear I feel like I was in grammar school where if your sneakers werent authentic jordans or reebok pumps all the kids would laugh.just my 2 cents

MJ50

should DEBADGE!

There is an AMG e320 parked at the courthouse near here.
