The front looks like an older CLK with the splitters. If thats the look you want then they would be worth it. For $.99 you could probably draw the splitters on with a black marker and still look better. They look cheap. In the end you will get your lights split and save $9.00.

Yeah, why would you want the older E-class CLK look? The blended headlights on the C-class look much better.
MB offers something similar, but they are chrome. They call them headlight rings or something.
The ones on ebay there look like sh*t. They look like they're made of construction paper.

they just look cheap IMO. if there was a way you could seamlessly install them in order to have a 208 type front look, that would be soooo much better than those double back tape things.

yeah but that still requires a removal of the headlight cover and then paint. i still dont think it will look clean like the splitters which clean and seemless) like the W208's, W210's and W211's.
