Here is a picture after powder coating the stock 15inch rims, black and chrome center caps and the killer tinting job.

I'll use a better camera and take some nicer shots to post...

it's great you properly painted the wheels but black o.e. wheels will always look cheap to me. car looks clean save for the rollers. go 124 wagons!

For $250 I can live with it until I can afford the $1500+ for new tires and rims...

I think it looks great. Always like black or charcoal wheels against a light-coloured Mercedes.

I've painted two sets of wheels using spray cans -- but cans filled at auto paint supplier. Great results.

or you could have powder coated them the proper color

Stock bundt wheels look awful on the w124 IMO. In any color.

Well since we're no holds barred here...

"Ohhh no".....says "he's 15 and stole his dad's bbq paint...and ran out before he could finish the inserts". & "I sure don't want to be around when his dad comes home".

If you wana go AMG "blacked out", finish the stars...please

Or maybe you work for law enforcement...might get you out of a few tickets.

Sorry...just an opinion....

P.S. Tinting does look cool , but the rollers? Yikes

What the hell are you talking about.

Again, what the flying frack are you talking about, seriously.

Okay, just put down the bong, step AWAY from the weed and STOP SPEAKING IN FLIPPIN' RIDDLES.

The tinting is absolutely "tits" and, FWIW, they didn't pass down the keys and I had to go to a locksmith and have him deal with the rack. However, I may someday have to put surf racks on it and aesthetics, at that point, will always play second fiddle to my surfing.

if it were me personally I would have gone with a different color choice, It stands out too much in contrast to the color of your car. just my .002 worth..
