It's all up to you. If you like it, go for it. Some people think these cars look good enough from the factory, others don't. Nobody's wrong or right, there are no facts regarding style, it's all subjective. After all, the W123 is just what Brunco Sacco's opinion of a good looking car was and we all know some people think W123s are ugly little cars. All people can give you is an opinion on what they would do if it was their car. But it's NOT their car, so if you want to add that stuff to your car, then go ahead, but know the risks that come from aftermarket chrome fender arches. I have them, they were on the car when I got it. They'll be coming off when I get it repainted.
Also, MB doesn't recommend chroming rims. Go with the polished alloy look if you want the chrome look, but don't want to risk the integrity of the rim.
