Roald (tjoepie) beet me to the draw.
Got the car from back from the shop last week. Took a while for me to post pics as I misplaced the camera. Found it last night so you guys have to suffer through another round of pics!
Here's one of the front. I replaced the lights with W124 euro lamps. I ordered the E500 lenses which should be arriving next week. Had to replace the wipers as well (but used to old wiper motor and modded the panel below the lamps). The shop had some old wipers from another car who had them removed for a cleaner look...lucky me!
Here's a pic of the side. The paint's actually a lot shinier but from the time it took me to get the camera, look for an empty floppy, quick charge the battery and get back out to take some pics, it had rained hard stopped, and the sun came back out again. All in 2 hours. Murphy's law never fails.
Here's one of the rear. Couldn't decide between the old 500E badge, which would look misplaced now that it's been facelifted, and a more correct but not quite honest E500 badge...so it's debadged for now. The badge you see on the right is a Renntech badge. I got so much stuff from them they sent me one for the car. (I think they did that to push me to do a 6 liter conversion!)
Here's one of the newly installed RENNTech carbon fiber air filter housing from my ""upgrade parts" album:

I ended up replacing both air hoses as the new ones were different from the ones that came with the car. The length of foam is shorter in the newer hose and the hard plastic part is longer as a consequence. The nice thing about it is that the bent portion is plastic and the foam part is on the 'straightaway' so it doesn't get bent permanently.

As usual, more pics in my photoalbum. Link found in sig.
Cheers!
