Welcome to the forum

Sure you can. Just follow that nice man's tutorial.

I believe quite a few members here did them to their headlights.

Here is somewhat the process for our lights (although this is for BiXenons - same process).

https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...y-guide-3.html

this is a good link for a lot of good info

Here is how the black projector light look.

I'm assuming you don't have the projector lights? I don't know what your budget is but if you want to paint them black and you don't have projector light definitely recommend getting them. Makes car look more nicer.

Then get some HID kits and you are good to go

Here is how they look on the car

Honestly, you can get a black housing projector fairly cheap... Prime example
http://www.spyderauto.com/beta/catal...ck-p-2097.html

If you like, pm me and I can check availability and price for you (I've got some friends that work there).

Oh, and welcome to the forum! You should come out to the meet tomorrow morning. (err.. this morning)

Car looks great, but honestly I wouldn't get black housing projectors. I would get regular

If you're in the 909 then you have to come to the meet tomorrow.

Bunch of people are going

Did Eric grab your ***? Dude the first time I met him he grabbed my *** and when I turned he said:

Eric: Karo, did you just grab my ***?
Karo: Eric, from where I'm standing, that's a physical impossibility
Eric: Oh, I know your tricks, Karo!




A beer on me if you can guess what movie that is from (no cheating/googling)


Those guys are cool. Even though I haven't met Phil because he always flakes on me. I still owe him Zankou Chicken

@Loveevelyn, Since you're talking about blacking things out or covering them w/ vynl, you should check out AeroTect in La Verne. They can cover you headlamps to darken em up if you really want to and they definitely can smoke your tail lights w/ film instead of paint.

Hey Karo, remember the 650 I told you I had wrapped? It's on their site. lol

Yah your wheels are nice! From the looks of it, you've got a fairly decent C Class already. Flat badge, wheels, side skirts, an rear window wing. I have a feeling that's not all either. lol.

Anyway, if you need parts or referrals I'll definitely help you out. Just let me know and I'll do my best.

As for the meet, come out if you can and bring people if you like. The more the merrier. And you won't be the only female C-owner either. I think at least Patricia is signed up too. If you wanna check where we are or see if we're still going to be there, gimmie a call or txt 626-3seven4-61five3.
