Alon, I thought the diameter of our center caps is 2.5"? I could measure it off my wheel but it wouldn't be as accurate as you taking it off your hammers. So what did you come up with?

anyways, Just got home from SEMA. Awesome show. I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

Damn! Henry those new smoked taillights are sick. I should look into them - you know how I am with me being dark or smoked. LOL

Just get your existing taillights tinted dark like I did mine, and sorry I forgot which thread I posted a pic of them in.

Just spend 12$ and tint them yourself using VHT NiteShades. I used it on my car and the results were amazing.


Just do a bunch of light coats, going back and forth to both taillights to make sure you get an even darkness on both, then spray a few coats of Automotive paint clearcoat. The clear is necessary for unbelieveable gloss...

Find a store just specialized in auto accessories, and I don't mean just any auto parts store.

These are the TSW Holsten's, saw them recently and thought they would look mighty fine on the w124, especially a VIP w124. I think they say Boss!

TSW quality huh? My 18's survived a roll-over accident and are still straight and true! Having been in auto recycling yards, most wheels don't fare so well. I would be curious as to the quality complaints

Touring the w211 forum I have heard worse things about multi piece wheels getting bent and cracking...
