    Very nice. I had a question. what do you mean by #1 pad front and #2 pad rear? Are you talking about the Spring pads? I just got off the phone with a M-B dealer, and they didn't have a different spring pad for the front, so I was told.

    Hope you don't mind, but you're pictures were so good I just had to use them as wallpaper on my desktop.

    Great car! Perfect upgrades. You just can't go wrong with Carlsson and Brabus. Do you mind telling me if you have a homepage or where I can find more pics of your car? Thanks!

    Thanks for all your great comments!

    Scott - Unfortunately I do not have a home page so WYSIWYG.

    I'll soon be working on the interior so stay tuned...

    Beautiful car. A nice touch may be the SLK type "wreath" wheel centres.

    Now, when I open my shop, you can bring this to me for the speed needed to make this as fast as it looks.

    VERY NICE UPGRADES!

    So how compliant is the ride, with lowering kit, Eibachs and 30/35 series tires in 19" rims? Bone-jarring stiff or can you actually call it supple?

    Actually, to my surprise, the ride was not that different from the 18's that were swaped for these 19's...I keep wondering to myself why I ever hesitated to get 19's in the first place! However, keep in mind that I am in So. Cal. where the roads are fairly smooth...

    Wow !! What a ride...
    Have you ever thought about getting the E55 Tail lamps? Also, how do the exhaust sound?
