My new car..

..well, new to me

My first Mercedes! I've had it for about two weeks and have loved every minute. It's a 2009 C300 4matic with about 45k miles. It's not the top of the line or brand new but it's mine and that's what matters to me It has black leather interior, Command, Harmon/Kardon sound, and iPod integration. Okay, enough rambling, here's some pictures!

Didn't even notice how strange those looked until you said something. Might have found a weekend project!

Found some on Ebay for $33. Will order them tomorrow. Thanks for the tip! I also plugged the holes from where the front plate bracket was earlier today. I'll post some close up pics later. I think I did decent for my first "mod"

Identical to the one I just bought, expect mine is an 08. Anyone have recommendations for wheels on the Iridium silver, and maybe a tint % that looks best?

Been looking for some wheels and considering tinting as well. If you can find a place that sells them I think the Avant Garde M328 wheels would look really nice. If anyone has a picture of these wheels on Iridium silver, please share! I've looked through the picture thread and haven't found one.

I wish I knew somewhere that sold them. These seem to be a popular alternative: http://mrrwheels.com/rw2.html Thoughts?

Those look nice but I'm not sure I like the little circles around the outside of the wheels.
