Why do you want running boards? I actually had them removed. The car is not high enough that you need them and your pant will touch them when you get in or out. Just about every salesman I dealt with agreed that they like the car without them!

Be advised if your GLC has the AMG style lower body cladding, M-B does not sell a compatible mudflap.

The GLC i have ordered is has option 321 "Sport Package" which has item "772:AMG Bodystyling"

so with this bodystyling you are saying no MB mudflap will fit?

i do not see a separate lower body panel option so assume its part of the 772 item? with 772 mud flaps are selectable on MBUSA. please advise with more detail.

Also, does anyone have the Air Balance Package, does it actually work? was it worth the $$ ?

My GLC came with the Sport Package of which AMG Bodystyling is a component.

When I tried to order mudflaps my dealer's parts department told me the flaps illustrated in the Accessory Catalog were not compatible with my vehicle.

That said, its been a couple of months since my last inquiry. So, based on Check's post seems I need to revisit the issue.

Only the front mud flaps will fit vehicles with the Sport Package; the rears won't. See my DIY thread somewhere on this forum.

The accessories brochure on mbusa hasn't changed yet so I'm guessing they haven't released any new ones.
