I like original rims, or manufacturer performance rims, original paint, original interior, etc..

This is kind of a trick question.
I think you hit the nail on the head. Updating and adding aftermarket items that were made by a legitimate tuner are all good. Changing tire circumference by more than 4 or 5% and some of the other trash you can buy for our cars makes them look like some American Iron pimp wagon. Mercedes are way too good for that.

I want the side skirts for my 87 wagon too, and some first generation monobloks. It will update the car nicely.
