Here she is...
2 Lorinser spoilers, smoked taillights, and a smoothed and painted rear bumper. I'd like some imput from anyone who wishes to comment, anyone else, enjoy!

The spoilers look nice, as does the bumper. But, I think the lights are a little too smoked for my tastes. 
I still like the W210's smoked lights. Those were classy and really set the car apart from other models in the W210 lineup. Nevertheless the car looks excellent.

Not so into the smoked lights but the rest looks really great and aggressive! Does the upper spoiler have a provision to clear the antenna? Also, did you use the glue provided to attatch the Lorinser trunk spoiler? I just bought the same spoiler but I am a little uneasy about glueing it to the trunk vs using double sided tape. What did you do?

Yes. The upper spoiler has a cutout so that it goes around the antenna. For the trunk spoiler I believe they used the double-sided tape however it seems to be coming off. Thats an issue that I have to deal with with Oracle. By the way, if anybody lives in LA or in the area, NEVER - I repeat - NEVER take your car to Oracle Motorsports. It is a TERRIBLE company which does TERRIBLE business and I might get involved in a lawsuit with them. TAKE MY ADVICE, DON'T GO TO ORACLE!!

2004 E55
Hi guys I'm new here, just wanted to say that Eleanor Owner's E55 looks really nice and sharp. Where did you get your smoked tailight from ? It looks good.

I would have smoked the white/clear parts, left the red, red. i would have left the roof spoiler off.. too rice for this nice car. but to each his own. i really like the rear bumper with the black.. now it looks closer to an e500 with amg package. i would make it black again for sure. gives the rear end more character. but props for modding your car!

I drive along there a billion times a day and I have never seen this place. Is this by Fatburger? By HandJCarwash? Im at a loss!

that rear diffuser wasn't painted. it comes painted from the factory. they just removed the black plastic piece that covers it. at least i hope this is what they did and they did not try and paint over that plastic piece.

this is the only pic i've got. however, the piece is not on my car since it is not completely 100% finished. but it should be back on my car by the end of the month.

Wow!
Definitely one of the nicest 55's I have ever seen. Love the spoilers, I want to do the trunk spoiler on mine. They are like $700 ish? The smoked tail lights would look good on mine too.
Dgussin1, great lookin Cobra too. Smoked lights and black looks awesome.
