w209 CLK LED aftermarket lights
I want LEDs somewhere on the front of my CLK.
Do you guys like the headlight/LEDs?

Also someone makes a w204 fog lamp/LED bar in chrome for the 2008 C300 that I like, I wonder if I could make it fit on the CLK 209 basic/regular bumper?

On your bumper, I'd probably go with the headlights over aftermarket LED bars. One thing to consider on these LED assemblies is that most of them use very cheap, low-watt LEDs and they won't look nice and bright like those that come stock on new MBZs, Audis and Lexus. In fact, I have seen many of these that are really dim and just look like blue dots - very ricey/cheap.
I went for the new E-class A207 look:

This probably works better with the sport bumper fog light openings on the V8s than with the setup on the V6 bumper. Also, the SmartTop controller I put in has the ability to run the fog lights as DRLs (i.e. without the headlights on). I have not found a reliable "canceller" for the fog lights (I tried two different models, both fried themselves from heat), so I have left the originals mounted backward in the bumper, covered with tape.
