Since you've already done the deed, I assume that you're seeking positive validation only. Glad to oblige. On a black car with black wheels, it looks OK.

Looks very good, but only because of the black wheels and amg bumper, I probably would not like it in any other color.

Good job, enjoy it.

The MB one is very difficult to install, but well worth it (to me). The knock off are easier to install and cheaper. BUT, i say you get what you pay for.

I am negotiating a demo 320 CDi with standard wheels but your wheels make the car.
