Help.. Need some opinions

So I placed my order for subs and an amp through my job, got a sweet deal on 2 Kicker L3 12''s with a 750 watt amp, not looking for crazy just a little base. Should be arriving tomorrow and installed Wed/Thurs. I also my my appointment for my tints as well as my headlight/taillights/sidemarker/fog tint. My next step which will be next friday is ordering my wheels. I've decided to go with TSW Zolders in a 45mm offset, black with chrome lip.

Now, first thing is, anyone know where I can find Black Mercedes center caps that will fit? and secondly, I want to paint my calipers but am having a toss up and of course I will be getting the MB Decals after they are painted.

Do I do red, had red on my c230 but the car was red so it went, my cousin thinks they might be out of place. I don't want to do black because I don't think it'll even stand out. So what color should I go with, red? silver?

Let me know if anyone has opinions/knows where I can find the center caps to fit. Thanks! I'll post pics along the way.

What color is your C class?

Red is the most sought-after color for brake calipers... far too common these days unless if you pulled it right

For W204 black center caps... your best bet would be Ebay

Orange is definitely interesting. I think I might go silver, I'll have to see when I get the wheels I guess.

Those caps will fit, all universal? Never had to do this before lol

L3's came early. Getting them put in tomorrow. I have no trunk now but meh, it'll sound amazing haha. I'll post pics.


Thanks guys

I thought about yellow, even googled some pictures. Ahh! Haha.

L3's installed today. Only issue was amp not shutting off and humming after the car was off due to the Bluetooth Noise canceling mic, had my guys throw a toggle in line of the remote wire so problem solved! They sound amazing!
