w211 E63 GH splitter

Thanx to Gary@suvneer for the items. They look great and came out good.. Of course wasn't going to pay nobody to do it, so again thanx to the forums for the DIY. And anyone who's trying this it's so much easier if you take the bumpers off

W211 E63 HID Fog Lights 8000K

The most PITA thing at first because the HID bulb can't just go inside the socket of the fog light. Had to get H7 bulb socket from another car to make it fit. Finally got it done with cannibus ballast so no dash warnings.. Did the headlights but driver side started to flicker . Then found out OEM ballast is no good found one $350 OEM used will post pics when all lights are uniformed

Are these factory or aftermarket? Where did you get them?

They appear to be aftermarket. I've been looking for OEM AMG sills for a while. Not made anymore and can't find NOS for the life of me.


That said, they look great. Good job.

A build thread for your car may be a better idea than 14 different threads...

Lovely, I can't delete my due post from my phone so I will add I really like the touch with the door sills.

Some good mods so far and all the more satisfying since you installed them yourself. Welcome and I look forward to your next posts.
