My 06 E55 AMG

Hi all,
I have been to this forum for a while, but haven't post any thread yet.
I would like to introduce myself a bit, my name is Chunlin, i am from beijing, China. I got this w211 e55 amg for almost 3 years, and made some changes on it, which i would like to share.

pictures would talk:
this is the first time when i got her, 06 US spec with 40k miles, imported from the states, MB certified pre-owned. kind of the rare one i guess: it has dynamic seats, hk audio, panorama roof, distronic system, etc

i put a set of 19 inch s65 replicas on it, tinted side markers, and added a cf front lip.


the rear spoiler comes with the car


replaced stock brack lines with BFgoodridge steel lines


custom wrapped suede steering wheel, notice the wood trim is also different than most w211s


got a new set of wheels, this is the Chinese market S class AMG package wheels


brought an aftermarket grill and painted black, also installed the flat badge.


custom made distronic sensor cover.


Renntech ELM V3 installed, and lowered.



and today i got the Vossen CV1 wheels installed. Funny thing is i ordered the CV3 wheels from Wheelexperts, but they sent me a set of CV1!? What should i do?









this car also equipped with evosport stage1 power package and evosport cooling system. Eisenmann exhaust is on the way.Thanks for watching!

Very nice man. I would leave the cv1 's on there, they flow amazingly well with your car and look insane. Great taste!
