Would you mind taking some up close pictures of the blacked out housings? I am thinking about doing it, but a bit confused on what should be painted black and what should be left chrome/silver to not affect light pattern. What did you do?

Sorry for it being night time, but its not very common to have most of the cars at the house all at once to take a shot of. We're still missing the mustang gt though from the mix, they gave us the Hyundai Loaner thats tucked in the corner next to the Escalade! lol.

Awesome, I don't really care about the highbeam output, never use them. But what about that round "half-circles" in front of the lens for the low beams? Does painting over that effect anything? Also, since it gets pretty hot in there, I have some black VHT "engine" paint. Think that would do the trick?

It doesnt really get that hot in there, at night verses the sun beaming down on a hot day and you can imagine how hot that gets. Regular spray paint should do the trick. Just dont paint the "glass eyeball" (projector lens)

Hi guys, I have a 2010 C300 Sports. like it, love it, been an MB fan always. Had a few teething problems with the new car. Some resolved, some not. Currenty have a odor from the AC on turn on, lasts for about a min and then goes away. Dont know what could cause that in a fairly new car, 20 months. Any ideas. I do not believe in spraying Lysol or any other agents. My other car now 6 yrs old, not branded and still smells and runs like new !!

Guys, have any of your C300s had start up issues? When I start mine at cold start, there is a heavy vibration as engine warms up. This is not only in mine, but have tried some at the dealership too. They have the same issue. Even the GLKs have the same problem. Told the dealer about it. They updated the software, go less, but not gone yet. Any suggestions ??
