Why not have a meet @ HMS (meet a lot of MBZ owners at the same time)...halfway between LA & OC

FYI, HMS painted my orange reflectors to Iridium Silver for dirt cheap $$$$ looks great

yup, it doesn't melt and doesn't allow lights to shine through. whole point of painted side marker is to not let the side marker shine through since when it does cops might have a reason to pull you over. instead of letting it work like crap best way is not to let it work at all. I've never had any issue not having the side marker on my w203 with the euro impact strip.
