yeah but mines white with some very minor rust around some trimming. so i would be fixing that also. and yeah stock is so so im not a fan of white cars so yeah i still love my e420 but if the colorwas diff it would make it look laot better. most likly painting it that almandine red color. see i dont know if there aare any paint shops around where i live so would be taking it to body shops and asking them to do it or where ever they send there cars off to get painted.
