Nice! Is the install a DIY project or better suited for the body shop guys?

Also, how close is the CF pattern to the pattern MB uses on the spoiler, interior trim, etc? A side by side pic would be great.

body shop, I have LED's in my turn signal that glow white/blue that will be put into the others.....
The shells are already at the shop; dropped them today as I was having my E serviced, sorry won't be able to get side by sides, but the weave: as we all agreed on at the shop was very very well done

the whole piece comes off, it's an OEM part so everything is the same, but since my side mirrors are illuminated they have to swap something into the CF ones.......I don't worry about those thing because it isn't my forte.....

Those look so good now you will have to take extra precautions to make sure they don't get stolen.
