Looks great!
Those are the same wheels as my 08-63, but mine are 18....Are these CLS Wheels? Where did you get them?

dodge ram srt 10
can someone tell me how to replicate this car. stupid questions because i am new but i am trying to find what i want and have it done right when i get it. budget is what i am trying to figure out and where to make it happen. first off, my guess is its a 05 or 06 55 right? its in the 55 pics forum and i have figured out that the wheels are the cv3s. how much is that lowered and is that stock ground effects? or a kit? to lower it that much will it ride like **** too? i am literally looking to find a white one so i can replicate this pic. any help would be appreciated. thanks

You can get a E55 and put the E63 bumper on there to give it that look. Add a carbon fiber front lip, the wheels, and a drop and tada.

so lets try this again. but on a 55 this time. how would i replicate this one. this is my favorite so far. i know the obvious that it is lowered. more specifially how much does is it lowered and what kind of money is that? i know those are the vvscv3 wheels too.

do the black 55s come like that or do i need to paint or change anything. looks like front grill was painted black? anything else obvious? or that i am missing. again i am trying to find what i like so i can do it right away when i get it and i will just overallow a bit on financing to cover the cost. and who are the main vendors that help with lowering? does anyone know of someone else that replicated this already and i can just talk to them direct as well. i guess i could try to call vossen too if that is easier...

thanks again for the help guys. i cant wait to be the next happy owner of a e55.

You can make the grill black and lower it for less that $10... washer mod and plastidip.

i can get the grill painted for nothing for sure. dad runs a body shop.

lowering it for less then $10? are you just removing something that is already there or cutting something?

what do you mean by washer mod and plastidip?

and found washer mod too. so thanks for pointing me in the right direction. now last question is what is a good price on those rims? is there much mark up? i have a buddy that i might be able to talk down but i would like to know if i am wasting my time or not as far as if they have any mark up or not. or does anyone have used ones that are 100%?

the vvscv3 wheels.

thanks again
