just go to a local bodyshop and have them paint it...if you can find someone who can paint it for less the $100, otherwise, order them through EvoSPort as RIck suggested...that's where I got mine.

A good body shop won't charge more than $50.

No they won't. He has a C32 which has the regular W203 front end and not the W209 version that you have.

Scovit,

I'm looking at the AutoDynamic website.
Is the part number (Product ID) you ordered 'MBZCLK03-FBS'?
That's the only one I see for the W209 style.

Thanks, Norm

??? as a bodyshop they should know that they first would have to put on a primer coat prior to the actual paint

they said nothing would stick to that plastic, and that colored lenses have the color added when they are manufactured.

then how come I just got my stock amber side markers painted Black Opal Metallic and i've washed the car thrice and they still look perfect and only took about an hour to finish and dry? Whew... anyway, any REAL shop would tell you it's possible. My local shop didn't even flinch, I told them I didn't want ANY light showing through (not that it's a problem, black opal metallic is pretty dark).

flip

Evosport sells them for $80 when a local shop will probably laugh at this "paint job" and do them for ~30.
