W124 chrome fender trims for wheel wells
Hi all w124 owner,
do you have chrome fender trims for wheel wells as such I am not sure whether to adorn my car with them; I'm concerned that the car could become too flashy. Are you satisfied with the "upgrade"? would you recommend? please post pix of your car. Thanks for all inputs.

Funny thing about those is everytime I worked on a car that had them, the car was always shiny and clean, but the mechanicals of the car were neglected to beat the band..

Wheel Arch Moldings in Chrome
Just a Reccomendation from what I have seen:
DO NOT INSTALL ON YOUR W124, W126, OR W140 MERCEDES CHASSIS!!!! Rust is VERY prone to forming under the wheel arch moldings. If you install them, use a rubberized undercoating on the backing to seal the job. You do not want water to get behind the molding.

So far more cons than pros, looks like I am not going to do it.
