Ebay and formymercedes has them for less than $200 I believe.


OP, Any pics from the mirror side? The bulky part surrounding the mirror is what's keeping me from buying these.

Yepp they still fold! there exactly like stock, and the place i ordered them from i believe you had to pay extra from chrome or carbon fiber molding ( both are cheesey in my opinion) so the regulars just come solid in the color of your car.

That was the main reason I did not want to buy them, because I thought they would have the chrome ring. With out it, they look awesome

Thats my next project...where did you order the vinyl? Do you have any experience with tint or anything like that? I'd love to see how that comes out with some instructions and pics please. You have a C32 right? My mirrors don't fold do they?

Yes i tinted my own windows, i do a little side buisness nightshading tails (my farther has been painting cars for 30 plus years so he sprays them with this really good clear coat after and they come out amazing) i also splitt and clear /blacking out headlight housings by backing them. So i mean with the helps of pops i feel fine doing the vinyl ive tackled those other projects i feel confident. If i like the results im actually considering doing the whole car matte black ! I got a roll of 3M vinyl on ebay 60x58 for 50 bucks. But my mirrors dont "fold" but they do pus foward and snap back its like spring loaded.

for ****s a gigs sense i metioned it heres C300's tail lights i did not to long ago one of my favorites, i have a ton of pictures i could post of tails and headlights ive done but dont want to hyjack the thread.
