Hey SteveHi. Where did you get the black out trim from and did you install it yourself. If yes, was it easy to install?

By the way nice car

I have 8000k HID's on my ML320... here's a pic of how they look, they definately get compliments even from people who don't know beans about cars, like girls, they automatically notice the "cool blue lights"

looks good. are those 8000k bulbs with them oem projectors and ballasts or is that an hid kit? if they are just the bulbs what brand did you go with? i was looking at getting the vestec 8000k bulbs which are kind of expensive at $260 a pair for bulbs only. heres the vestec 8000k bulbs in a bmw

It is an 8000k Matrix HID Kit, using halogen housings on a non-xenon ML320. 8000k get a lot of compliments, and are hecka bright! I would suggest 6000-8000k in HIDs, the 10000k's suck! I've seen them on an Escalade and they aren't as great as they seem. I paid 450 for mine including installation, HID kits aren't cheap.

cool, thanks. i have oem xenons and just wanna replace the bulbs. i like the fact that you can buy phillips 6000k bulbs. all of the 8000k bulb manufacturers im not really familiar with. but you are right 8000k looks 10 times better

Thanks Heeman!

Very unique. Please tell me exactly what was placed on the top of the sideskirt? How was the sideskirt held in place? Are those impressions of where the screws are placed (to hold the sideskirt)?

Black tape (matt type) was used to cover the joint area. The dimples are impressions of the ?screws used. The dimples are usually not obvious, but I pressed them down a bit to make them more obvious to you.

Hi guys,

Just picked up my new '99 CLK430. Now I just have to figure out how to bring those headlights back to life.

Thanx, I got H&R sport springs/Bilstein Sport shocks. Stock pads (dont know what they are.) The ride comfort is ok, kinda harsh but its prolly because of my wheels/tires
