hi

I'm interested in changing my e500 body kit to an amg body , and changing the rims to amg 3pc and mufflers to

could someone guide me where to look for and if someone has the parts please contact me

regards
 
W124 AMG body kit is NLA, it also will not fit the 500e without some modification. The AMG exhaust for the 500e was a AMG of Japan exclusive, so you would probably need to source it from Japan
 
There is a guy in Russia who has the AMG W124 body kit. PM me an I can put you in touch with him.


Robert
 
Robert, is the Russia guy selling an OE urethane kit, or aftermarket copy? Any idea on price? Just curious - I'm not in the market.

With the 500E front bumper NLA, modifying the AMG bumper would be a decent alternative, particularly the Gen2 bumper which can accept fog lights from a C36 to retain proper lighting on the 036. And, it's shaped properly to clear the factory oil cooler if fitted.

:apl:
 
The W124 AMG exhaust came in 2 flavors - old logo (pre-merger) with oval tips and the ////AMG logo with rectangular tips. Forget about trying to find a pre-merger logo W124 exhaust. I bought the only two I have ever seen on Japan Yahoo and that was years ago for Jono and one of his customers.

Here is an auction for the later AMG exhaust


Price is about $1,300 (divide by 100 or so). Total cost with fees and shipping figure $2,000 all in. I would expect the P/N on this exhaust to start with "HWA" vs a stock 124 part #. Not an expert on post-merger AMG exhausts.

The 3-piece OZ Racing wheels are available from time to time from different sources - eBay, forum members, Japan Yahoo. Can go with all four wheels the same ET28 8.5x17 or staggered 8.5 fronts and 10x17 rears ET18. You have to be extremely careful about cracks in the lug holes on these wheels.

I should also mention that the AMG of Japan exhaust is just a stock rear muffler with AMG tips added. Really isn't worth the money IMO.
 
Here is a pre-merger compete W124 wagon exhaust including center resonator. Find another!

I don't believe the OP has a wagon in his stable.

Would this fit on a e500 since it was on a 300te !!

I may be wrong but I think NOT. (Apples & Oranges)

It’s the wrong configuration for an E500E. On an E500E the back box is on the rear driver’s side with the can’s small end facing to the rear. (Perpendicular)

This can is strictly for a TE Wagon and lays parallel with the back bumper. (Parallel)
 
You can find more info about these "AMG Japan" parts in the forum. Basically non of them are documented original AMG parts, but probably dealer or aftermarket modifications.

The W124 AMG mufflers in the gulf are from 6 cylinder W124s , forcefully welded on 500E..

Your comment is not completely accurate. The parts built by AMG of Japan ARE AMG parts but are not in the system for purchase through Mercedes dealers like the AMG of Germany parts. So if you take the AMG flares of the 4.2l W124 and run the HWA part numbers through the EPC, you won't find them. These parts were made specifically for the JDM market cars and were available for purchase in Japan from AMG of Japan.

Today, your only source for these is Yahoo Auctions of Japan. Not sure why EBay of Japan really isn't used but thats how it is. Expect to pay a very high premium for these parts.
 
I understand your point, but due to missing information (EPC verified part number and availability) we cannot confirm these parts as original AMG.
There are many country specific parts which can be found in the EPC, such as hot countries thermostats, non-cat mid pipes, US day lights indicators...

It could be the case that these are pre-mercedes era AMG parts, thus not in the EPC, or dealer upgrades similar to chrome wheels in the US and parking guidance poles in Japan.

It's not a pre-merger issue, as many of these parts were made for use in conversion's post merger. I don't know the exact specifics, but my sources have indicated that these custom parts were given the green light by Germany but with the caveat that the parts were to be used and sold only in Japan.

The USA branch of AMG also made custom parts that are not in the EPC.

All of the JDM AMG parts have HWA part numbers and while not in the EPC, the part numbers of these items have been cross referenced to actual JDM built AMG vehicles, so with some due diligence, you can verify if these were actually AMG of Japan parts or some sort of home made construction.

Personally, I have never seen any homemade AMG parts, only the typical Chinese fake AMG items. Easy enough to spot as most were never actually made by AMG/Mercedes or used by them.
 
Here is an AMG P/N stamped W124 exhaust on Japan Yahoo. If you are looking for better provenance than the AMG plate welded to the stock W124 exhaust shown below, can you post what you think is "authentic"?


Opening bid about $800 plus all fees and shipping, probably around $1200-$1400

Here are pics of a nearly new W124 Hammer pre-merger full Sebring exhaust that I bought and had shipped to the US about 7 years ago. Will never find another like this! All in cost to me was about $2,100 - an unbelievable bargain in today's terms. A certain Atlanta shop owner was the lucky recipient of this rare find and this exhaust is waiting patiently to be installed on a Hammer sedan. Note that the Hammer Sebring exhaust is 2-in/2-out, while the post above is for the E500E single inlet.

A W124 TE pre-merger AMG exhaust I bought and imported from Japan many years ago. This unit had some corrosion, but was very restorable.

W124 AMG stuff is nice, but I prefer W126 stuff... Bought this many years ago and sold it to a French forum member who is restoring a 560SEL AMG w/ a quad cam 32v engine. This was listed on Japan Yahoo as a W210 exhaust. My winning bid was $75. Fees and shipping $300, media blasting and high temp powder coating $150. Helping mate this to an authentic AMG sedan, priceless.

I have seen the real W124 AMG exhaust, but of course all were for 6 cylinder. These were actual silencers like the hammer and W126 AMG exhaust. Not just AMG tips welded on a standard muffler. Hence my questioning of the authenticity.

Some in Q8 fitted the standard W124 AMG exhaust to 500Es (not knowning the difference) the result is a raspy noise :/

The Lorinser and Brabus exhausts for the 124036 are also silencers, similar to the hammer design.

The six cylinder items are made by AMG of Germany and are in the EPC.

The .036 AMG exhaust is a specialty item made by AMG of Japan, only sold in Japan and is not available in the EPC. Most all of the .036 cars built by AMG of Japan use this muffler and based on the pictures I have seen, it is only a rear can, there is no AMG replacement for the resonator or cats.

Your paying quite a bit of money just to get AMG tips.
