if you make that grille, I am going to drive up to BC and kick you in the head. Go with the black lights if you have to, or just leave it alone, it is a fine looking car as is.

There is too much going on, even those lights look too busy. why not just have a setup like Shadow but fit some projectors in them?

All of these aftermarket parts are obviously desingned by some 14 year old kid in Taiwan who watches too much animae.

The w124 is not a Deceptacon.

LOL...

I don't like Shadow's quite as much as these, besides why retro projectors when it's already done?

PS the grille is AMAZING, don't worry, you will change your mind...

I prefer the chrome....gives more depth to the front of the car and better accents any grille you use !

If your gonna go darth vader then you might as well do the black ones, they will def blend in better.

If you paint them body color, that would look best, either that or the smoked ones. Do keep in mind if you do decide to paint them, your going to be stuck with either clear or black corners, as there is no way to take the corners apart.

I may be ordering the smoked once, thus leaving the black and the chome available for sale. I paid $198 + shipping per set so I would let them go for $175 + shipping for my MBworld friends! I obviously still have the proper packaging and will ship them with care!

PM me if interested! I am still waiting on my 6pin plugs to get this party started!

zorro I would go with the non-chrome set, as your car color will blend in somewhat with the lights.

And why did you order the two if you only want one?

To see which ones looked best, of course

TO CLARIFY:

I will NOT be selling my euros. Nope. Never. Not at all.

Man tough choice, they both look soo sweet. KEEP THEM BOTH !! Switch them like every season or something.

But I'd most likely go for the smoked ones. Its the middle ground.


By the way, how are HID's working on them when the seller says its not built for HID's !! I see that you wont do the retrofit....so yeah !!


good sheeet man !!

E320 is after the facelift, on pre-facelift cars US spec headlights had the indented rectangle that looked quite unsightly:

Yes but the beam pattern on my euros is still better than the us spec 94-95 lights....

That's the real difference...
