Thank you very much for the compliment, Subman.

The current paint is not original; I did a color change from the original (smoke silver - aka beige) to "brilliant silver" about 6 months ago. That accounts for the beige interior (which I will have re-done, at Brabus, 24 to 36 months from now - color undecided).

The new paint is factory (OEM) paint, though - the same silver as the new Mercedes-Benz vehicles. I like it much better, this way.
