If I'm cruising along and some ******** fly's in front of me and keeps on going, why do I need to slow down? If I slow down, everyone behind me has to slow down also... That guy who cut me off is still going 110mph, he's well out of my reach by now.

Wow that must have taken you a long time that sure is a lot of work. My husband and I once tried getting the mirror off my CL65AMG and it was a disaster. Since I am chaldean I have a roseary hanging in each and every one of my cars and we got that stuck in the mirror when we were trying to take it apart. We ended up just taking it to Mercedes to have my mirror fixed. It was amazing it only took Mercedes about thirty minutes to get it fixed. Once again great job on your car!!!

These rims are forged which makes them a lot more expensive then what I planned on paying for rims...so a lot more expensive then the styling VII's that are on my friends E500 (see attached pictures) or the styling VI's on my dutch E220CDI (also see picture)...these are all 19s btw.

Great work. That car was so similarly configured to mine, I think Parktronic was the only difference.
You should put Texas on your travel itinerary, I could go for some extra options. I'm working on adding a few myself, but there is so much to research when starting from scratch.
