I like it. Not a big fan of the chrome & looking to tint or black it out myself.

Thank you to everyone! All of the badges will be black. Yes, I will be adding 35% tint on all the windows, 70% on the windshield, and tinting the pano as well.


The Black Badges (AMG, C63, & V8 Bi-Turbo) came out excellent!

Just added the Gloss Black trunk star. Now you can see why I did not want the chrome strip to be painted black.

I am going with Suntek Self Healing Film. A dear friend of mine is installing the bra plus all of my tint work. The car was picked up today and I will have it back Saturday for delivery!

Hey JP

I noticed that you removed the black pieces of plastic that came on the rims of the car, I tried to do it myself but the wheel hub inserts do not fit the rim alone. I am assuming I need to buy ones that fits but does Mercedes Benz sell them or do I have to buy em someplace else?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, I did. They are OEM MB Center caps. They can be purchased though any parts department. I did post the part number in this thread.

If you are on the fence about tinting your windows; wait till you see the pictures of how it looks. INCREDIBLE!

I tinted my windows but my dealership said "Benz doesn't recommend to tinting your windows"

Why would they say that
