Ok, the addiction of the SE taillamps is getting to me. I have yet to receive my Y-pipe and Rear strut brace from Stillen (takes a goddarn millenia!) and I wanted to get the rear taillamps from a SE from Courtesy. BUT, it's like $93/ea... Anyone wanna sell theirs? =)
Or, does anyone have a crashed SE and want to sell their's? OR, know of a cheaper place to get them??!?!?? I'd really like to have a spoilerless looking SE (the spoiler just adds a....weird look, imo).

Buy one of those spray thingies that leave a film on your covers. I think it's about $20... Next best thing to having real SE covers.

ive proposed many trades in the off topic forum. cuz i know for a fact there are se owners who prefer the red tails. well, they called me crazy and egged me down. you can give it a shot if you want.

Three reasons I bought my SE:

1. The "Sports Suspension"
2. The spoiler
3. The way the tail lights look.

I agree with Kev, spend the money and get the real deal.

17s
Unfortunately the 17s weren't available when I got my max Oh well, I get to pick my own, may even go with 18s... but right now I'm thinking 17.5 Mille Miglia Spiders (Anyone have anything good bad or otherwise to say about them?).

me also
i have a 2k black GLE and its begging for the tinted taillamps.
I think im gonna go with it. As for the spoiler, it looks weird in my opinion but if i get for a cheap price, im gonna buy it.

Anywhere cheap where you have found the taillamps?

imo that one hamman spoiler that goes on the beamers look reall nice.. on the max.. it's plain, yet useful. it's not that high that would block the view.. the one i'm talking about is th eone that mounts fromt he very edge on the side. but u can't see the ounts since there is a lower lip thingy to the trunk. i'm not sure if uget what i'm sayin' but if anyone knows what i'm talking about, a like would be greatly apreciated.

Sport Suspension?!??
Blah blah blah, sports suspension. That "sport suspension" can easily be recreated with $500 or less.
I paid $20,200 for my GXE. A SE would of been $22,300.
SE Taillamps = $200
SE spoiler/imitation spoiler = $250
SE Sport Suspension/Better than OEM Suspension = $500
For less than $1K, i got a SE =) and saved $1100.

Oh, by the way... my car IS lowered, just, not much. Eibach Pro-kits are doing ride height duty.

What about the titanium guages? Aren't those SE only? Also.. does the GXE come with the mid range stereo?

the white guages... no big deal. he said he got a spoiler. the premium stereo is available in the gxe, just that the bose isnt.
