Okay, for those among us who are less knowledgeable, just where do I find the "B" pillar and where along it do I find the paint color?

Thanks, never tried linking. Now I know.

Mine was a 2nd decade production Sep 03. One of the first 2004 models.

PPG's CeramiClear automotive clearcoat nets company a fourth consecutive PACE award

Keywords: Coatings, Automotive industry, Awards

PPG Industries Inc.'s CeramiClear automotive clearcoat has won a PACE award for automotive-industry innovations, marking the fourth consecutive year the company has won the prize. The CeramiClear clearcoat employs nanoparticle technology, which the company says provides a durable, glossy appearance by creating a highly crosslinked network at the coating surface, resulting superior resistance properties. The PACE awards program is sponsored by Automotive News magazine and Cap Gemini Ernst & Young.

CeramiClear was developed in conjunction with Mercedes-Benz during a 3-year period, with commercialization occurring in August 2002 at the Mercedes' Sindelfingen, Germany, plant. A second Mercedes-Benz plant, at Bremen, Germany, has also begun use of the product. PPG said commercialization of the clearcoat in Europe will accelerate this year.

PPG said it also has developed an aftermarket clearcoat offering comparable levels of protection as the factory-applied CeramiClear clearcoat in auto-refinish applications.

PPG's previous PACE award-winning products are the FrameCoat electrodeposition coating (2002), the Audioguard sound- and vibration-damping coating (2001), and the Enviracryl powder clearcoat (2000).

Finally! now the fog of the whole subject begins to clear. Thanks Eddie.

I'm supposed to pick up my car on Saturday...YIPPIE!! It's been a long wait.

BMW, you can take your "Ultimate Driving Machine" 5 series and park it in Chris Bangle's *ss. That's where it looks like it came from anyway.

I'm a Merc man now. (or at least I will be in a few days)
