Chrome Light Trims






I found these Chrome Trims for the Headlights and the Taillights on eBay. I think it matches the chrome that is all around the car? Anybody has these on their W205? What are your opinions on it? does it look good or ugly??

I saw these on ebay as well and if I was a big fan of chrome I'd probably install them...I look forward to seeing them on a car.

I can almost guarantee that they will look cheap and plastic-ky if they're anything like what some people have put on other/older MBs. I find them to instantly make the car look ghetto and out of place, but that's just my opinion. I also think they tend to look OK / less offensive in pictures, but look terrible and tacked-on in person.

Spookily, I saw an E Coupe, parked up, today with these fitted front and rear. To my eye, they looked awful - while the chrome looked decent, it looked very gaudy and out of place.

Obviously the owner is a great fan of Chrome (mirror caps, light surrounds, fog surrounds and everything else he could) - spoilt the car, IMHO.

But, each to their own, eh?

Most cheap Chinese chrome rusts and pits in a very short time so no one should even be considering these.

Sorry - just reinforces what I thought, not to my taste.

It will split opinions, I suspect - some will hate them, others will love them. That is healthy, it just reflects what you like in accessories.

Quite right - entirely agree with you.

I think both the light trims and the AMG badge on the grille will split many a personal opinion.

also I had AMG edition badges inside ,as I said ,it is a personal choice.
the brake calliper painted into red colour ,I believe it looks sporty.
