.Black Opal Metallic has been taken off of the MB production line - now making the paint rare
. Took a while to get it in this color though - and it was actually a wild guess out of a catalog!flip

ya that is a shame they took the color off the line! mercedes benz has superior paint quality and colors! so unique and classy.
The only problem is it is harder to seel a color that was discontinued...I hope they dont discontinue my color diamond black.

I've never seen Black Opal in person....is it similar to the BMW Carbon Black that was available on the M5??? I always loved that color!!! Tried to get my wife to special order her 330Ci in that but she didn't think it was worth the $$$. Your car looks awsome in the photos!!

Thanks for the pics, your car does look awesome just like the background, you must live in a beautiful valley.
Here is South Florida we don't have that , anyways I went with the 18" Brabus rims and 225/25 front and 255/35 rear just waiting for the arrival then I will post my pics. I wanted to keep a low profile trendy look, but with still class of a distinct MB that won't look like a japanese.
Thanks !

Wow, your car looks awesome!!!!My questions is: What did you do to fix the negative camber alignment which is created by lowering the car? I have a -1 degree which could wear the tires in the fron uneven. What do you guys do because I haven't found a camber kit to fix that issue????
I appreciate the replies. Thanks!
