protective 3M film - Benzworld.org

There are several suppliers selling 3m protective film to protect headlights and paint. Stongard is the best known. When will someone offer cut pieces for Euro headlights? The protection for the underlight panels is mandatory. P.

I think this is a good point since I doubt those of us who spent hundreds of dollars on European lighting and such want to see it turn into a couple peices of junk.

Hey tubs, can you post a picture of your car with the euros? just curious on how it turned out.[:D]

If anyone upgrades to Euro all glass headlights they cannot find pre-cut 3M protective film for them. The first company who wakes up could make a killing as the news would spread over all the forums. P

I got the clear corners installed, the Euros are still coming in the mail. Then I'm also waiting on the solid peices under the lights to be painted. I expect on being done with the Eurolights by hopefully end of July.

I'll post pictures of the clear corners when I run out to my car. I'll, snap a couple pics soon.

Here's the pictures of just the clear corners, I'll snap some tonight when it's dark so you can see what they look like then.

Wow. That looks really nice. I hope my CE will look that nice by just putting on clear corners.

Hi,
I have a black on black 92' 400E. I am ordering the Euro headlights and I am getting smoked (dark gray) corner lights even though I already have clear corners on the car. As for the rear, I already have smoked and red headlights. I was also thinking about repainting the panels under the headlights since they have so many rock chips. Does anybody know how much it would cost to get the panels repainted? Im not sure if it is worth playing around with the Euro headlights, but I think that painting the area around the actual light bulbs black would be a great change to the lights. What does everybody think about these changes?
