Overall, not anywhere near as much different as the CL203 - which look fantastic btw. The new CL203 tails, combined with the 8.5 inch rear, should help the back of the car tremendously.

Time? Tools? Skill level?

Open the Hatch ...open the carpet covers to access the tail lights
Takes about 10 min....Tools (1/4 )drive ratchet (3/8) will work with 8mm socket
short extension helps! Four 8mm nuts on Each tail light. Skill Level 1 on a 1/10 with 10 Being the Most difficult

Are you still in love with your color choice? I've had my Merc for 3+ years and still not seen your color choice in person yet!!! I imagine you'll get a good price for it if ever decide to sell it privately.

i do get coments on the color for sure. the other night a guy said he found the color for his jeep cj5 he is restoring. another that really stand out was a little girl. i was leaving my sisters house and she came up to me as i was getting in car and asked if it was mine. i said yes. she says, my daddy really likes your car, but he can't stand that color. leave it to little kids for honesty.
i got it cuz i liked it, so thats all that matters to me. love it or leave, i dont care!

Do you think 11/32 might make the grade? ![Confused](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)
