'10 E63 Obsidiant Black; '06 R350 Alabaster White; 05 C55 Obsidiant Black (sold)
First 1001km!
Tinted side marker + V1 + 3M clear bra installed
The Clear bra is only visiable at a certain angle so i'm very happy with it.

Where didja get the tinted side markers?
It does look much better. The orange stock ones are especially noticable on black cars. It is interesting that the factory (euro) pics do not have a side marker at all...Must be a US requirement.

I got the tinted marker on ebay for about 80 bucks, and it comes with chrome lightbulbs which will show amber lighting at night. It's a lot better than stock marker, but I still prefer no marker at all..

Canadian E63s get a designo Alcantara headliner as standard, US does not.

Thanks for the clarification. That's what I assumed. The ROW gets the full treatment whereas the NA market gets the crumbs. From all the E63s I've seen on the dealer floors, the cars look de-contented w/o alcantara and nappa (as it was standard in the W211 E63) It's unfortunate and hopefully the package can at least get certified eventually. Although I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Which ebay seller did you get your smoked side markers from? I'm going to order a set. Any fitment issues?
nm found the seller, he actually has your car pictures posted up on his auction page. :o
