convert into w211 07-09 model

[Guest sbu1199u]

Hi,i am driving a E200 w211 2005 model,will like to upgrade to 2008 model,any trustworthly workshop to change the 1)head lights 2)FRONT GRILLS 3)fog light into led type 4)back lights.....anyone can advise.....?

Last I heard,

1) MBM Wheel Power with theirs ties to KBS - did I get it right?

2) Wee Heng (@ Enuos) with Benzline <- I prefer here, more friendly and more attentive.

Can do the complete conversion for $8k. Hmm... but I don't recall that the fog lights were LED in any of the face lifted W211. Otherwise, quite doable. The front grill wise, you might have to change the whole bumper (can fit) to get the forward V-shape. The back is pretty easy as it is already pretty similar.

These are the obvious parts that needs to chg :

1) Grilles

2) bumper (frt and bk)

3) bonnet (think original is made of aluminium)

4) headlights

5) rear bonnet garnish (for complete FL w211 look)

6) front bumper fog-light

....... think the total cost will be some S$8K++

Better off buying a FL w211.... i think.

[Guest bbwannabe]

Not to mention, you get 20 more BHP, keyless go/entry, no more vibrator brakes, some better interior trim, and better safety flashing LED brake lights!

[Guest tanwill]

Ohh....4gotten the :

7) Wing Mirror

Interior

1) steering

wahlau by the time all the list is complete..... really...u shld just buy the FL model.

*the FL NTG is a damn GOOD choice ! and seems like alot of ppl are looking for it too !

[Guest tanwill]

Those guys who bought the last few unit of FL w211 must the luckiest FEW !!

Especially those with the FL W211 NGT model.

Never heard of this problem on starting, as petrol is the default mode in starting.

Another advise....

Since it is a major make over, why dont you consider getting a AMG E55 styling kits ?

Think there is a few dekitting.

[Guest Lim BS]

I was thinking of just converting the rear i.e lights and rear bonnet, anyone can recommend where to do it?

[Guest alumetal]

Just Rear light is simple - think Mcwell got it....LED somemore.

As for the rear bonnet, there is a simple solution :

For the front light you can use this :
