Update: My eyelids have a bluish tint now
But I still like them especially at night when only the fogs and eyelids are on and I'm just cruising not on the roadway.Here are some updated pics.

For those of you with Keyless-Go, did you notice that the top of your door handles are chromed? IT's a very nice touch that I didn't notice on other 2010's. I will try to take pics later today. My dealer told me it's because I have keyless-go but who knows if that is actually the case.
btw, I guess your car has full options in US, why doesn't it have front parking sensors

Your car looks amazing! Very clean, wonderful drop. Love the grille! Don't you dare put a front license plate on that thing. Anywhoo, what eyelid LEDs did you use that they changed color? I think the C class community is still trying to find the right LED out there....

Damn, just wanted to say you picked great options and your car looks amazing
What you did with the grill turned out really good. It looks like it could almost be factory. Plus the black on black, great color choice

nais!
i noticed u use kaizenmotor LEDs for your eye lid, i just happened to purchase from the same guy too, the LED seemed fine when i put it on, but I read somewhere saying that LEDs melt the socket at worst, most of them will blow up, so I switched to Polarg M4, is there any problem so far with those LEDs?

Update: iJDMtoy license plate lights
Just did my license plate lights with iJDMtoy from MotoringMax on ebay (Search "White OBC License Plate Lights W204"). The color is Xenon White which has a blueish tint. I used these because they only have two diodes per bulb as opposed to 4 diodes per bulb like the eyelid ones. I didn't want my license plate lights any brighter than stock just a color change that give it a more presidential look.
I tried taking pics but it just doesn't come out right.

I'm not a fan of carbon fiber but have to say that using it on the front grill definately works.
Those OEM wheels look good too. I've been going round and round about replacement wheels and find that most of them draw too much attention to them. Those OEMs are just enough without overdoing it.
Great looking car.
