My car is back, new wheels on, and aligned. next is to work ont he bumper, and get the fenders rolled.

I would post pics, but I dont have the center caps I ordered int he wheels, and couldn't make it to the car wash in time.

But I'll post pics soon enough.

I didn't want to use the carlsson center caps, I ordered the mercedes caps with the chrome star.

Which caps did you order?

I sent out yesterday for refinishing the 8 hole rims I bought from a good friend of mine - OEM 15" 8 hole rims from his 95 E420. $110.00 for trueing, polishing, and clear-coating, a baked-on poly urethane clear coat.

I could use the center caps I have now that are all chrome.

I'm also looking at the SLK style center cap, which is basically chrome, and has a blue band around the perimieter with the word 'Mercedes' on top, and 'Benz' on the bottom, with chrome leafs on the side.

Do they make silver center caps with a chrome 'star'?

I need to decide today or tomorrow.

You can see the caps I'm talking about on the following site:

Yes is the short answer. I have posted the part # in a previous thread. I don't have it to hand at the moment (still at work). Do a search on centre caps and you should find it. If not, e-mail me or re-post and I'll send the # as soon as I can.

the caps I ordered are the silver painted ones with the chrome star, part number: 220-400-01-25-9715 thats fromt he dealer invoice.

Price was $11.14 each, worth it to me.

I'll post pics, going to get them later today.
