Chrome Door Handle Shells???

I was wondering if any of you had these installed on your car and possibly have some pics of them?? Thinking about getting them since they are only 39 bucks. I know they are an official product from MB so it's not some cheap knock off.

That's why I wanted to see pics first. I figured they would look like *** but wanted to at least judge for myself. I was thinking about replacing the CLS 500 badge on the back with letters from IcedOutEmz. What do you think about that??

I like them on some models, usually dark colors work best...but I've found that the 3m tape they use doesn't always fit tight against the car. Which means water gets behind them and after you have washed your car and dried it, you end up with weepers behind each chrome shell.

I like the clear sidemarkers look, won't tint it because i like the fish bowl with blue tint, front plate has to stay so I won't get hassled, plus I didn't pay 108 bucks a year for 1 plate, lol. CLS will stay so I won't have to say what kinda car it is every time someone asks me. The drop is coming as soon as I get time.
