My E55 finally arrived! (pics)

Well after looking around for about 2 months and actually buying another stock '06, I purchased a modded '06 blk/blk E55 from another member here. I sold the stock car I bought to a buddy of mine. I just got back from Barrett Jackson yesterday and the trucker was here waiting on me. Specs on the car are: 2006 Obsidian black, charcoal interior, 11k miles, Navigation, Pano roof, keyless go, Dynamic seats, zenon lights. It has ported VRP heads, VRP cams, Kleeman top mounted intercoolers, Kleeman pully, larger front mount, upgraded pump, Kleeman shorty headers, hi-flo cats, Renntech lowering module, Quafe rear end, Eurosport rotors and E63 rims. Today I had it tinted, put on the lift, powerwashed the undercarriage, motor and washed the car. Clay bar the paint followed by a 3 step buff/wax. I also installed the MRR wheels I got a few weeks ago. It had a clear bra, but it looked bad so I removed it last night and a new one will be installed tomorrow. I haven't driven it much, but I do like it. I plan on getting some long tube headers and a different pulley& tune in the next month. I have a lip spoiler for it but it's getting painted. I'm ordering the flat hood star tomorrow. Here are a few shots I took tonight in the garage..

Don't quote me but I have heard that Kleemann has made a handful of these bad boys...

Hey SW, looks good. Why MMR wheels with all the connections you have with HRE and the others?

I originally bought these when I was first thinking about getting a E55. I wanted some wheels that looked good that
weren't to expensive incase they got damaged. Given the level of this car, I may get some HREs, but for now these will be fine.
