Best to buy post facelift ones & fit them. They are black with a fine chrome trim line that looks better than pre facelift. Same price.

Originals usually get a deep purple look in the sun once oxidised.

I don't have the P/Ns - I will look but suggest you find a facelift car parked in the street - Take down it's VIN & ask your dealer to order against that VIN.

thanks so much for finding that. By facelift you mean an 08- present C class model right? I have a 08 c300 so you are saying I could just order those and replace them on my older 01?

also by "vinyling them" do you guys mean just paint them with vinyl paint? sorry im a dumbass.

By facelift I mean in US 2005 W203 onward (Not W204)
