Snibble,

My E320 has a "gold package" which includes gold front and rear stars as well as gold stars on the center hubs. Since I bought the car used, I presume that the original owner had this done by the Mercedes dealer in the San Diego area.

I feel that the "gold package" complements the white exterior with the chrome wheels.

When I bought the Mercedes 2 years ago the gold stars were getting a bit dull. I used some chrome polish which removed the tarnish and brought back the shine.

My neighbor had a "gold package" on his black Acura 3.2 TL which included gold badging to the front and rear of the car as well as a gold front grill. I feel that the gold front grill was a bit overkill but since its not my car it not for me to judge.
