This is the one from their website. The grille pieces come silver, but that was too gawdy for my tastes, so I had them painted flat black. I like subtle, but aggressive look of body kits, especially for benzos.
Only thing I don't have is that little MH-Dezent sticker on the bottom front of the bumper.

Thanks, tommy. Nah, never run out of mods to do. But, I'm coming very close to the budget "cap" that I set for myself and I have a strange feeling I'm going to be going over that by Winter time.

Mine has more prominent indents. I'm considering have a custom lip made, actually. But that is on the back burner. Brakes first.

So, I'd definitely have to agree, Frank. But your car is a completely different story.

There's a difference though. On your car, the silver grille looks like a beast, especially cuz there's no other grille inserts on the front! Silver grille on my color or the silver one on the mh-dezent website...

Well, that's always been my goal, clean, aggressive, not too flashy, but enough to stand out and be unique.
Now, on to more projects. Gonna hopefully do some taillight wiring this weekend (finally) and figure out when I can get my tune completed.

I’ve never been a fan of fake stuff…until Mr. Saprissa was eyeballing ‘em at our last meet. He mentioned that MB only has something like ten sets in its parts supply network, and that they are not exactly giving them away.
Maybe they are not so bad after all!

Mine can equipped with faux CF door pillar trim. Apparently they were a one year only deal with the C32.

I'm pretty sure it was on C32's and Sport editions (240/320) for 1 year only. After that, they changed to black!

From the last time I remember, it was something like $400+ PER PILLAR! At first, I thought it was Per pair, but the dealership clarified that it would definitely be per pillar because they had limited stock of them (and majority of the w203's had black pillars).

MJ, they match the pattern of my current interior pieces, but maybe a little darker. So, on black or dark blue cars, it looks outstanding! They look similar to those cheap ebay stick-ons, but obviously much better quality because they are complete replacements, not overlays.
