There are a few threads that have covered this with very detailed pictures. If you use the search function you will find more information on it than what I could personally tell you.

So the answer would be "no" then?
The only thread i found was a "build thread". A one off where the company didn't want to put the parts list up.

The answer is YES. You need a set of coilovers for a W211 ( your pick ), some random suspension parts from an E320/E350 ( mentioned in the threads SVTAMG is speaking of ) and Star Diagnosis to make change the ECU settings from air springs to steel springs.

Yes you can. I'm not sure when KW will be releasing the 55 kit but as for the parts list, I'll have it up soon.

We were throwing around the idea about whether or not to put up the list but we decided to do it. I've been waiting for an email with the list so I can post on here. I'll be posting as soon as I get it.

There is already a thread that was created and answered the mail on this.
I see if I can find it. This guy put coil over on his E55 replacing the airmatic suspension.

Yup...that's me.

After throwing out the idea of whether or not to throw out the parts list, we decided to do so. I've called my guy to send me the email so hopefully it comes soon. He's been really busy at work so I just have to wait. Worst comes to worst, I might try to go down in a few days to see if I can fetch it.
