New Wheels and some chrome trims

Got some new wheels for my ML280CDI. I went with 19" "AEZ M hg" rims.

Also got some nice little chrome accents for the "bonnet fins" and chrome trims for the front fog lights.

Nice truck...I love the chrome foglamp trim. I have it on my vehicle too! Do the mudflaps come standard on the ML in Oz?

HI everyone,

Thanks for the compliments. I'm certainly happy with the look of the vehicle.

Yes, the rear mudflaps are standard here in Aus. I believe the mudflaps they fit are unique to our vehicles though - they are quite large.... There is an Australia Design Rule which dictates a maximum space between the bodywork (or mudflap) and the road surface - to reduce the amount of debris (rocks etc) that are thrown onto following vehicles.

Nice! Where did you get your foglight trim? It looks a little different than what I've seen at *************.com.

Thanks!

Mods look great! Question: Do the chrome caps on the hood fins create any glare when you are behind the wheel ? I've thought about getting these, but was worried that they might cause reflections.

I got my trims from a company in Australia called "Carshine". Car Shine "fashion for cars" - Australia's Leading Car Styling Specialists

The chrome bonnet fins haven't caused any glare that I have noticed. I have driven the vehicle at night both in the rain, and in fine weather, and have not noticed any. And I am pretty picky :-)
