I understand the bumperettes might be a deal breaker for some, thankfully this one doesn't seem too bad, I wish they put the ones on the C238 though, the taillights and the bumperettes looks very elegant (dare I say) and looks like a face, the taillights being the eyes and the bumperettes looks like a mustache instead of something intrusive.

The US regulations make no sense. God forbid we have flat bumpers around the plates, but a Tesla yoke passes with flying colors.

Speaking of awful, the current gen CLA has pretty intrusive bumperettes imo.

The bumperettes have nothing to do with safety. Regulators gave in to the US insurance lobby to mandate the bumperettes to reduce damage caused by 5 mph or less impacts, so they can pay higher bonuses to their execs.
