Chrome headlight trim

Would like to purchase a chrome headlight trim kit for a 08 S5504. Seems like I have read where someone bought one and sent it back due to quality issues. Would rather skip that step and get a good one the first time. Any help would be apprecitated.

The car looks great with chrome on it. Have you tried going to the dealer?

Will check with them Friday when I take the car in for some warranty work. I believe MB charges $250 for them , was hoping to find them for a little less if possible.

Here's a site, it's exactly the same as what you would pick up from the dealer, but a lot cheaper. I have both the headlight trim and the chrome inside the door handle. It's okay, but not that special.

I just don't care for the gap around the headlamp. Thanks for the site, much better price.
