I have been using Altec's Autocross frames for years. With the W221 - chrome is the way to go. Hopefully you live in a state that does not require a plate on the front. Also, use stainless screws to secure your assembly to the body. Good luck.

Here are some pics.

These legal in Texas?

Since the MB logo at the bottom of the frame obstructs part of the plate, these would be ilegal in Massachusetts. And they enforce it! Only the thin frames are allow; no logo frames

As long as the top part that has the "Texas" logo is visible, it's fine.
