Gotcha.. so they're more "natural metal" color vs the painted and clear coated color of my rims... I think that would look good to, Can you post a close up pic of it on the car? The shot above is hard to judge..

I trust you... no problem. I'll see if there are any pics on-line, or if you see any post them then.

Polished wheels
As far as I know they don't equip the E-class with polished wheels anymore, neither in the US nor in Europe. They are just clearcoated now. Part of the cost saving like the deletion of puddle lights or active charcoal filter.

What are puddle lights? And when did the Active charcoal filter go away? Was it only on the 4-zone?

In German: Im Zubehoer vielleicht, aber ab Werk werden sie nicht mehr verbaut.

My 2004, E320 4-Matic produced on April of 2004 has them and I find them very convenient!
