E55 AMG Advice Please



I don't know if you guys can zoom in to see better. Does that HE looks like stock one?

Hi guys, I recently got a 2005 e55 from auction. Pretty low miles 52k. Has a little bit body damage in the rear but nothing bad. Lucky for me the car already have some mods. Looks like Mid length Headers and Primary Cats delete. I don't have check engine light on so I'm guessing the car is tuned?? Based on those mods what would be the approximate whp? Any info from you guys would be greatly appreciated. Btw the car is from Pennsylvania and the damage was in passenger right corner. Maybe you guys know the previous owner lol.

I'd say some 50hp on top of stock

How are you repairing it? Nice find!

I'm taking it to a Reputable Bodyshop, they will replace the rear fender. But they won't be able to start on it until New Years. Is that WHP ?
Haha i checked it out before bidding on it, it's in really nice shape, super clean

btw what about that HE are the stock ones black in color or they come in Silver as well?
