Here's my freshly washed 560SEL Euro,

let me know what you think and any minor mods you think would look good.

It looks great now but a set of lowering springs and some wider tires would look even more marvelous.

your car is looking excellent just the way it is! :)

BTW, is that your new license plate?

What they said...

Very nice looking car!

I'm all for lowering the car and adding some wider tires and rims.

I think it would look outstanding with some AMG Monoblocks' and some 225 - 245 tires.

Blacking out the grill would look nice too.

VERY VERY nice car..... i like that its low KMs.!!! Deff. I nice example of how they were back in the day..

If you want a "facelift" on your car, I would go for the following:

Color-match your rear vew mirrors, bumpers & body panels.
Black our your grill, and if you ask me, color match the chrome on your grill (imo)
Clear or smoked corners and rear taillights
17" AMG 3 piece or 18" aeros 1 or 2 piece wheels with some WIDE tires
H&R suspension drop with a pad swap to correctly lower the front with the rear.

you can maybe even add a spoiler "lip" to the trunk.....etc.

Beautiful! Nautical blue is just about the perfect color for the Euro W126s. I love the blue-grey lower valence panels/bumpers. We want pics of the interior, too.

You hit the nail on the head, that would be perfect.

Tory,

Aside from your license plate not centered, your car is perfect (but you know that already :p)! With only 36k miles, originality and class is what your car exudes. Don't change anything.
