Just installed Pre-Painted side lenses ...
from Evosport.com. All i gots to say is, "NICE!!!" I was debating whether or not to buy the complete euro bumber or just replace the amber lenses. I think I like the lense replacement better. Not because its cheaper (only $65 less) but because it accents the bumper. The only way to describe it is that it is like a defined tricep on your arm. In other words, it adds muscle to the look. I was skeptical because it only looked OK on the website picture (only showed an E and CLK class). But it looks even better on a C class. I'll try to get some pix up soon when the lady brings over the digital camera.

Sounds interesting -- I looked at the picture some time ago. What color is your C32? Also, do they block the light completely, or does some still shine through when they're on?

i think i am gonna go with clears, with amber bulbs. i like the look of the painted, but i want to keep the side marker funtional. it is there for safety, so i dont want to completely blank it out.

O really...they just painted over the amber reflectors...hmmmm. I was hoping the Little light that would shine through would be the clear bulbs light.....Now i have to think which one i want again...the P.P.R's or the clear ones.

personally, I like the clear lens with amber bulbs. I read somewhere that it cost $120. A bit steep for two pieces of plastic and two bulbs. I guess it's not mass produced.
