Here are the pics
I know the pictures arent really clear since it was kind of dark. I'll get more pictures up next time I have access to a nice camera.

That broken trunk star is soon to be replaced.
I broke it while removing it to re-plastidip.

Let me know what you guys think.

By the way, I'm thinking about selling the wheels with tires. Any takers?
I would prefer local buyers with cash first.
Wheels are in gloss black with no rashes or bents. Front tires have about 85% left and rear tires with about 75%.

Looking good

You should think about LED sidemarkers as well to complete the front. Also stealth out the front turn signal. Just get some chrome/silver spray paint and a quick single coat will take care of it.

It will still blink amber through the single coat? I was about to see if I could find some sylvania silverstars to fix the "fried egg" look.

Yes, it will still blink amber with chrome spray paint. I used the same chrome spray paint with my rear turn lights until I replaced them with AZN_Optics' red LEDs.

The round fog lights on the 2008-2010 W204 just look SO much more dignified than the 2011's LEDs and the (IMO) terrible 2012, which has no beauty or identity at all, just MB trying to copycat the BMW angel eyes and the Audi LEDs. Wouldn't trade my fogs for anything...

EXCEPT the color. Hey guys, how do we get the fogs the same color temperature as the Xenon's?

Now if the W204 has the lights of the upcoming A Concept. THEN I would be jumping up and down.

I think the wheels really complement your car, any reason for the sale?

Thanks Michael, my right fog went out. When I figure out the problem, I'll get around to ordering another set of LED's from you.

I agree, the fog lights are much more practical and appealing to me than the LED strips that comes standard now.

Thanks for the compliments people! All your cars look nice too btw.

As to why I'm going to sell the wheels...
This car is my daily and the freeways here are full of potholes. I want something that I can just drive and be worry free.
