True, but I like it without the silver, actually. Black and white theme. Nice and clean.

Well, I really like the painted seatbacks. If I've those seats in my car, I would paint mine Mars Red to match.

I think it's tasteful for the seats.

Either way my kids would kick the $&*% out of those seat backs. None marking soles would be a must!

Maybe if the wood trim is painted white and the instrument dials in white face, that would make the look more complete.

I'd much prefer carbon fiber seat backs and trim. The white looks a bit cheap or kind of iPod-ish.

Wow, thanks for the pics. I've been thinking of doing the same thing, however I was wanting to paint them a gloss black for a more subtle look. I think it would give the interior an even richer/sportier feel. The current seat backs are plastic btw. CF would be very nice as well, but my guess would be $2,000+ for something custom like that.

I wonder if it's possible to retro-fit C63 seats into a normal C-class?
