Upper door wrinkle
Gents, I have this issue pictured and I guess it's time to replace the upper door. What I'd like to know is, do all the W204 share the same upper door part? I plan to buy a 2008-2014 W204 sedan door panel and just take the upper part off and replace mine, but are there multiple shades of black, or textures, or will pretty much any match up fine?
I found one 2008 C300 interior door panel, I just don't know if the texture and shade are the same as my all black AMG leather interior. Are there non-leather door uppers and leather? I thought the leather was mainly the seats.
First pic is my door panel and second pic is the one I found for sale.

How the heck did that happen? That piece is hard plastic...
I would just get a replacement like you said. All the C Class 2008-2014 are the same black interior plastic.

That's the thing, it's not really plastic. It's sorta hard but if you push on it it's soft, I think there is padding underneath and if the padding collapses, the vinyl or fake leather just wrinkles up like that.
I need to go by the local Mercedes dealership and ask about the interior door panel part # I guess, just to be sure. I have a feeling there may be leather and plastic interior door panels.

That's funny Jim..
I'm tall and I've never thought the arm rests on either side are comfortable. So, up on the window my elbow goes. When I have my helmet on the seat is down as far as I can get it to go and my head still rubs on the headliner. I drive the thing for a couple of hours and then beat it up on the track. Wash, rinse, repeat. Perhaps some custom arm rests are in my future.
