2008 C350 & other fine MB products
Thanks for the link. They have kits for around $60 for headlight and taillights and $20 for foglights. But as of right now they don't have any kits for the '08 C Class models. I emailed them to see when they would be available and will update this thread when I hear from them.

guys thanks for the links. Oh and i checked, there is not thread about DIY headlamp tints, there only professional ones that require the removal of the headlamps.
I was thinking about buying the sheets on ebay, and cutting them myself, im just curious to know if it would look bad. Anyone see a car with the tint paper on the headlamps? Did it look cheap? Im trying me best to make the c class look elagant yet, very unique

Heard from back from lamin-x.com today. Get this, the W204 kits were completed yesterday. They just put them up on their website today.
They have a headlight and fog light kit for $55. Seems like a good value to me. Now need to decide between clear or smoke.
Here is a link to the items

X3 and 2012 C coming soon
X-pel has had smoked, colored and clear kits for the W204 for a while.
I had .40 mil clear on my Passat headlights and Fogs. The heat from the fogs put a black burn mark right in the center of the film. I'm not sure if the C's will do the same. The headlight film still looks new.

C300 (W204) w/ MM, P1, & 18"amg's
Fog Lights seem pointless. Headlights look good it not so dark it looks purple/blue. Tail lights... well we all know what tail lights look like smoked lol. Its all about the quality of the tint, the person putting it on, and also the color of your car. Black and white cars, no question about it looks good. Other colors are hard to say IMO.

I think I'd rather just have the clear on the fog lights, even if I tinted the headlights. Only $15 more to order extra fog lights.
BTW: I inquired how much light output the tinted headlight covers blocked and they said ~7%.
