Before you start flipping, I posted my pictures and someone asked what grill I got and that was my response.

The car has just come back from the bodyshop, it still needs a final buff, but you can see the difference the colour is Crystal Cassiterite Black.

Progress made today:




Im after a set of Heated Electric (memory would be nice) front seats, if anyone knows a of a car being stripped for spares with them in cream please let me know.

The car is now sitting on 60/40 H&R springs, and has the Brabus spec shocks on.
Currently finishing interior swap and at the same time installing Cruise Control and a uprated sound system with custom made door pods to run a 3way component setup at the front.
3 piece AMG split rims now ordered and should be on the car by next week, then tint the windows and Im done!

What a beautiful coupe - great colour choice. Congratulations - hopefully the bodywork looks as good in the flesh as it does in the pictures...

I must also say that I am extremely jealous of your front bumper. I can't believe how difficult it is to find one of those here in the states without being ripped off.

Are you planning on changing alloys?

Have you considered having Albert fabricate one? It wouldn't be AMG but the mold would be exact and you could have it in Carbon Fiber/Kevlar - far more resilient. The fog lamps would be quite easy to get a hold of seperately.

Here a few photographs of my coupe. My car is totally original. I prefer to keep the cars this way although I have considered lowering the coupe by an inch or maybe two. My car does not have Sportline suspension -- does anybody know if Sportline reduced the ride height of these cars or was the only change that to a stiffer shock/spring setup?

The Sport Seating included custom leather seating surfaces with larger side bolsters. Rear seats were 2 place buckets with a wood covered center console. This seating was identical to the standard 500E seats.

Sportline also featured close ratio steering with 3.0 turns lock to lock, a custom steering wheel and a Sportline badged shifter.

Anyone know if that rear AMG-like rear air-foil/wing is available here in the US? I've always LOVED the way they look.... That car is awesome. That's what I want mine to look like when I'm done. First I'll get her running perfectly, then I'll start on the hood/grille/headlights, and finally the front/rear spoilers.... I've already got the AMG wheels (albeit 17's), and the H&R 60/40 kit springs with Bilstein HD's. Here's a pic of mine again:

The best place to purchase AMG kit is actually with AMG itself in Germany... prices are much better. You'll will need to have the parts numbers to give them. Availability might be an issue though... they have run through some of their other aero kit stock for the the W124s.
