How much did the OEM roof rack run you?

The LaminX looks good. And you should be able to get straight-up yellow bulbs if I'm not mistaken (check eBay).

Would look even better with eurostrips, or sidemarkers painted same color code as car.

The OEM roof rack was $120 CAD from a fellow forum member that just happened to reside in the northernmost metropolitan area in North America along with me haha. There is a dust cap missing on one of the bars but it should be fine.

Thanks! Ya I'm gonna have to look into that. Kinda lazy since I don't really have the tools to do it though (my tool box is non-existent).

EDIT: Dammit had a look on the Canadian eBay site, couldn't find just the bulbs to fit the car. They were all fog light unit replacements.

Lol ya I've looked into eurostrips, just didn't feel it was worth the price of admission. Maybe further down the road I will.

Tried installing the yellow fog light bulbs last night, couldn't get to it because of the windshield washer fluid tank. Ended up having to tear the EZ Lip off during the process.

Yes, it's a serious PITA of an install. Really worth it, though, because the yellow foggies look awesome.

Decided that I wanted to add some flavour to the car. Got to use the "Loyalty Circle Card" for the first time. Found out for MB Canada that they only print the card for ML owners and not C, although you are eligible to sign up for it on their website. Had to debate with the stealership and get MB Canada to tell them to honour the Loyalty Circle discount. Got 20% off this lovely MB coat hanger here:

It's just on the MB Canada website. You go to customer service and look in there or just google MB Canada Loyalry Circle. You just sign up on there.

Hey Drew,

It's these ones in this link: http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...All&sort=Brand

Size: 18x8
Offset: 32mm
Backspacing: 5.78"
Bolt Pattern: 5-112
Rec. Tire Size: 225/40-18

Mine is a square setup though, I just put spacers in the pack to make up for the lack of rubber look.

Car looks really good with the wheels but IMO you need to go lower . Your front is higher then your back . It needs to be even out. Like the fogs. Did you just buy tint film for them?
