Euro Impact Bumper Strips

I tried searching, but can't find anything on here or ebay. I want to remove my side markers and replace them with what I believe are called the "euro impact strips", basically just body colored pieces. However, like I said, I have no idea where to purchase them, also, does anyone know what Ohm resistor you need to solder on to avoid the annoying bulb out messages?

The euro impact strips replace the entire impact strip, not just the plastic cover over the light. Contact MBenzNL and Steve will be able to order you painted impact strips.

You can also what I did - take out the plastic lights, have them professional painted the same color as your car, remove the bulbs and flash the Front SAM with European coding that disables the side markers by default so no error messages.

That's the look I want, looks like we are in the same area, where did you go to get your lights painted and the Front SAM flashed?

Thanks

Will, I work at TTMotorsports in Farmingdale, right on Route 110 just north of the Southern State Parkway.

I can take care of everything that you need done, just give me a day or two to get the correct flash for the SAM for your C55 AMG.

Your car is Brilliant Silver Metallic Code 744U correct?
