Adding a Little Carbon Fiber to my GLK
Hey everyone,
I'm a type of person that likes change, I decided to get new carbon fiber wheel caps for my GLK. It's a tiny change but it looks better than my stock caps. It fits perfectly!

Not a fan of those wheels... to each his own! He could have just let the brake dust 'color' it. After rotating the wheels, all would look identical LOL! The red stripe does add some color....

Two recent updates on my GLK, i get bored easily so i changed my tint to chrome! I'm sure it might not interest you but in the Middle East we do crazy stuff with tints LOL. The second update is i decided to paint the wheels instead of the old vinyl i had on, the reason is because the sticker doesn't hold up well with hot weather and tends to get damaged easily.
The car is at the paint shop now, once its ready ill post a pic! I also added a pic of how my wheels look now, notice there are a few tears..

Bahrain prices:
Wrap with 5 years warranty = $400 but cause i know him so he discounted me to $260 (but i don't suggest wrapping the wheels, it gets damages easily and looks worn out)
Paint = $530
I went to see the progress and all the wheels look great painted in gloss black, it looks new and much better than the matte look in my opinion.
I will post the picture tomorrow!

I'm happy to say i love the way they turned out even more than how it previously looked with the matte vinyl because of how cleaner it looks now.
