2005 C230K Granite Gray
Thanks for the comments, looks like Euro impact strips are next on the list, with factory floor mats. Would like to put COMAND nav in, but the maps are subpar to what you can get on the portables, plus a whole lot more expensive! Granite Gray is the color by the way (747) and I believe Ash interior.

2005 C230K Granite Gray
Crna Mechka I just bought it a few weeks ago so I'm "stuck" with it for a while! The CL grille is color matched GG, I think that helps it to make it look like it belongs there a little better. Front lip is also GG, although I am considering somehow making the center elevated part aluminum, I don't know, still needs something...After reading on this forum that our front calipers were Brembo's, I repainted all of them silver, but Brembo decals on the front and clearcoated them..

Haha yea I did just for the photo I think, not to sure if they offer to much clutter up front or not.. Yea Morgan makes it a point to show that damn sticker to all her friends that like to ride their bikes and scooters extremely close to my car on the street. LOL Over all, no parents have called to complain and my car has no damage so its def a winner in my book. Haha
