Love it, one of the best E55s I've seen ![bow](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/bowdown.gif)
I used to live in Bloomingdale right off of Springfield just north of Schick...
I also had my paint work done at Patrick collision, do you know Frankie? Did you get your taillights done there as well?
Also, if you don't mind me asking, where did you get the brabus replicas, are they available in 20s?

Check out euroteknik, it's a local euro forum and they have weekly meets near the Schaumburg area, I haven't been active and haven't been to one in quite a while, but a good group of guys from back in the day.
As for your car, I definitely like the rear window spoiler, it's different I and would not install the trunk spoiler, I had both and it was overdone. I stayed with the trunk spoiler but love the way your car looks with just the roof spoiler, definitely looks different from most of the E's on here.
Maybe we can meet up in the summer at one of those weekly meets, until then, maybe I'll see you on the road since I'm in or around the Bloomingdale area on the weekends

Those townhomes are very very nice, congrats on such a nice place. I've been going to Frankie for years now ever since I had my E36 M3, I now have an 04 silver E55 and some older W124s. I live in the city now, but lived in Bloomingdale til about 06 then moved to Bartlett where my parents still live. It is indeed a small world![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Well i took it to my body shop guy and i know the chrome on the grill is snapped into place on to the black fins so he took the chrome apart scuffed, prepped then im sure primered and painted. But it turned out great and don't really have any chipping or cracking and its been on there for about a yr now. But you will love the out come of it and im sure it would look great with the theme of your car![naughty](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/naughty.gif)

Dang cant rememeber i got them done with my parking lights and rear windshield spoiler but i can't imagine a decent body shop charging more then 150 to 200 dollars do do it right. You could even snap off the chrome your self if you have patiants and just get that painted and pop it in your self ?
