My c450 really gets dirty in, around and behind the wheel wells.

It seems the Mercedes mud flaps might fix this.

1. Does anyone use them, and if so, what is your experience?

2. Can you post photos?

Thanks, Al.

It's a C Class, dude. Pick it up and rinse it off in the sink. Newbs...

Maritime

Well, there you have it, learning without limits.

I'll just get the kiddies to wash it, the Gainsville moms will be none the wiser. I hope no one posts links on their board to all the nasty language!

Maritime

Thanks, Rusty, but let me restate it: Mercedes mud flaps, not someone else.

Mercedes appears to make only black.

Thanks for your post.

I don't know what's more pathetic. A daycare owner with a successful preschool business, or a lawyer with two JDs getting chased off his home forum by a daycare owner.

Just kidding. Everybody knows which is more pathetic. Love the sig, BTW.

Maritime

Well, I guess the moms need to know who has care of their kiddies.

Off to the moms' board with those nasty language links....

Could get exciting, here: http://www.gainesvillemoms.com/forum

Nasty language! That does sound serious. You should get right on that. Hey, since we're doing funny sigs, whaddaya think? It's an advertisement for your law practice. You're welcome.

Perhaps 2 folks need to get a room? Just saying.

So, anyone using real Mercedes mud flaps, the black ones?

Mike5215

My apologies to you (and the board in general) but Maritime/JonathanSwift and I need to hash this out. I ordered a C with a March 3rd build and I plan on spending time on the W205 forum.

Maritime/JS is an active member here and at some point we're going to have to bury the hatchet and move on. I really don't have a problem with him. I doubt we'll ever be best buds here but we do need to find some common ground and at the very least stay out of one another's way. I think eventually it'll work itself out. Usually does.

Plus the last time I got a room with NotJonathanSwift, I guess habit took over and while I was looking for the remote he was already buck naked and tail-high over the bathtub with the hose and the funnel. Not cool, NotJonathanSwift, Can't unsee that, dude.

Maritime

So, anybody got the black Mercedes mudflaps?

rustycruiser

I was under the impression the Mercedes ones were for the base car. Nothing for the AMG Line other than aftermarket

Maritime

Well, maybe you are right but Mercedes U.S. says there is a black one for the 450, and my dealer, for whatever weight you give that, agrees.

Mike5215

Hey when you join the Gainesville Moms forum are you going to have two user accounts under different names like you do here?

Sadly, I don't think the moms are going to be too offended by a little dirty talk. How do you think they got to be moms in the first place? You do know how that all works, right? Maybe not in actual practice in your case, but you're aware of the overall process of heterosexual reproduction. In theory I mean.

Maritime

Oh, and the county guy is looking, too.

Mike5215

NOT THE COUNTY GUY!!!! People who use cuss words on a car internet forum are prohibited by law from operating a preschool! Holy crap, this could be devastating.

Looks like I chose the wrong lightweight blowhard to have a flame war with. Lesson learned!

Honestly, all kidding aside, how about that slogan I came up with? Pretty good, right?

Maritime

Trade association anthem?

Mike5215

No, that one was written just for you. Hey, did you get the double-entendre in the "sea man" joke? Too subtle?

Mike5215

I think the time NotJonathanSwift here last ran into a set of big black "mudflaps" occurred in an unfortunate incident in the prison recreation yard. NotJonathanSwift apparently had become quite the prep cook, because several inmates specifically requested...no, insisted...that NotJonathanSwift alone toss their salads.

*passes out pacifiers*

Mike5215

Damn NotJonathanSwift/Maritime/Mikey53, how many fake identities can one guy have on an internet forum? Have you ever read the Terms Of Service?

Faster dude, we gotta get this piece of crap back to Project Earth before he misses it! Who knew this would happen at Midnight....

Found these on eBay, they come from China.. Took about a week to get them and about $80 usd shipped...Fit is pretty good.. Come with hardware to mount and can use some of the original clips also.. i only had to find one longer clip for the rear guards cause the original was to short to fit back in.. A trip to the auto parts store fixed that for $3
