Welcome and congrats! There is something special about a white w211 with the pano roof...

Also, I would wager that you have at least one new front strut. I'm assuming that split in the middle of your lower valence is from being towed with an airmatic failure, just like how I got mine!!

the po replaced the front struts then put the jack down with no air in them and the bumper hit the jack. lol

Thanks everyone. It has almost a full e63 facelift, belt wrap kit , eurocharged dyno tune, a ton of the e55 issue already taken care of. The trans was replaced in 17 and if I'm not mistake it has an upgraded valve body. Not sure about that but it shifts faster and firmer than any of my other 722.6 amg cars. Wheels are 20" I forged 2 piece wheels. Not really a fan. Looking for some 1 peice 19"s
