I can recommend this company:

Park Place

They have essentially all of the MB Collection accessories, but for much cheaper shipping ($3.50 UPS ground - unless extremely big or heavy) and no sales tax (as long as you're not in Texas).

Cheers, BT

funny, i called the dealrship, they actually had what i was looking for and parts where not to much more than internet prices. paid 118.00 for 1 polished stainless steel AMG license plate frame, 1 polished stianless steel frame, and 1 stainless black plate with chrome star. looks really good after they stuck them on my car.


thanks for the posts... that helped me research prices and such.

C230 C-Coupe
I want to change my door handles and I noticed that the Park Place sight has the chrome door handles for $52. Anyone installed these or have any input on them?

Cheers

Nathan

Nathan,

These are just stick-on chrome cups that fit in the door handle cups (the region scratched by overly long fingernails), not new door handles. I think if you wanted chromish door handles you could simply order the sedan version (which has some chrome trim on body-colored handles) from MB - I don't know how difficult they are to install (I seem to recall someone on the forum installing body-colored handles on their coupe, they didn't think it was excessively difficult).

Cheers, BT

what... personally, i'm curious whether or not kleemann's pulleys have been selling that well at all. for the 2.3l kompressor engines in the slk and c-coupe. is it even worth it for kleemann to develop something for the 1.8l kompressor engine?

this applies to all of the tuners.

if there is room for a bigger pulley, the tuners will make them. The various types of 1.8's will be used in C's, SLK's, E's and CLK's world wide. The potential market is very large
