Guys, after working this thread all day, I'm completely flabbergasted at the complete and utter genuine outpour of generosity.
Honestly, I thought I'd give away my HID kit, and that'd be that. But, man....who knew this was gonna happen?
Outstanding work gentleman, outstanding. It's gonna be great when we actually start giving this stuff away and you're gonna see the winner's name pop up as the next guy Paying it Forward, if they haven't already signed up.
Let's not forget why this thread was started, and that was because Rock was kind enough to send me a pair of uber expensive tires for free. You know what he knew about me before that? Nothing, other than my screen name. Stuff like that sticks with me. What nobody on here knows, is that I never used those tires and ended up selling them with intention of sending him the cash. After I sold them, I notified him and I believe his response was something like "If you send me one friggin dime of that money, I'm gonna find you and shoot you in the face with a bazooka." Good dude, right there.
Gonna sign off for the night and spend some time with my wife and a bottle of cheap champagne.
I'll update in the morning when the kids give me a break from being a full time daddy.

PM Eurocharged about the tune. Although, if anyone has PM'd Jerry@LETMOTORSPORTS, don't resend another PM to Eurocharged. They are appending the same list.
Good luck. I wish I got my tune(s) from them for free.

Donate a set of Brabus Mono S wheels
I'll throw in a set of Brabus MonoS replica wheels (19x8.5 and 19x9). One of the rear wheels is damaged on the inside wall but the other 3 are near perfect with no road rash, scratches or dings. Comes with a set of chrome lugs but I don't suggest you them unless you torque them down right. FRT not included.
Also a SLK front grill...

While I was grabbing the K&N's out of my old airboxes for C32AMGSC I found a set of ballasts I 've been holding onto. They're out of a factory set of w203 xenon frosties (not bi-xenons). So if anybody is in need of OEM ballasts, give me a shout.

OH, I'd like to add a broken black, w203 CL grille. It's missing the chrome star, and maybe a bit messed up, but I'm sure someone could custom a Brabus style grille with it, if they want.
Would like someone to pick it up locally if possible, it's a hassle to box something that irregularly shaped. Benz-o-rama, can you make it a local pickup thing for me?

I'll add a set (pair) of OEM illuminated door sills (say Mercedes Benz, not AMG) should fit any face lift (or earlier?) W211.
I'll pack 'em up, winner pays for shipping.

Thanks Liran

I have some used stuff that someone might need:
1. W209 CLK500 stock resonator
2. W209 Stock Charcoal Steering Wheel (scuffs at the top of the steering wheel)
3. Approx 2 feet of Eurodyne CF Silver fabric
Unfortunately, buyer will have to cover shipping. I'll provide the box/materials.
