Where to buy these items now...

Hey everyone, you guys remember what my car looked like:



Well, 3 years ago, while I was parked on the street one night, some drunk guy backed into it and completely smashed the front. My car eventually got fixed, I ended getting a new hood, radiator, headlights and corners. But they are all stock now.

Now you may think I'm crazy for adding accessories onto a car with 120,000 miles on it already but I'm planning on driving this thing until I have the means to get a new car on my own.

So my question is...where can I get the avante-garde grills, euro amber corners and the w202 xenons now? I've looked everywhere and it seems like online vendors don't even sell stuff anymore for the w202's. Thanks in advance.

Try Bekker's or MBENZNL.

I'd try to hit up MBenzNL - he was the one who hooked it up w/ the amber corners.

You can try to give places like D2Technik a call to see about the Avantgarde grill - or Albert at The Wheel Supply.

Or better yet - see if you can get a hold of Dr.//AMG - he opened up his own shop and maybe he can source some of the stuff for you.

Sweet, thank you =)

I found the amber corners through MBworld.org, some guy in Germany was offering to sell his.

Think I'm going to pass on the xenons, but the grille I definately do want.

you can still find the avantgarde grills on ebay. And if you're still interested in xenons i know someone that is selling a pair, unfortunately they still fetch a pretty penny though (>$1k). Another option is to troll ebay.de for a while and hope you get lucky finding a good deal and someone that is willing to ship to the US. Thats what i did when i got into an accident a couple years ago, it took me a freakin year but i finally found a replacement drivers side headlight for around $350 shipped. Oh and i hope that you kept your electronics for the headlights (ballasts, etc.) because most replacements don't come with it, and even if you decide against replacing the headlights you can probably get some pretty good $$ for your ballasts as they have become more rare than the headlights themselves. Hope this helps, let me know if you want/need help finding anything else, us 202 guys are a dying breed...gotta stick together...haha.

haha, oh boy the ballasts are still attached underneath the hood.

man, $950 was what I paid for the stock xenons 4 years ago, and they still cost this much. w202's with xenons are quite rare, but i can't afford them for that much now =X, I appreciate you letting me know. Well if somehow things work out for me, I may send you a message for them if no one else has bought them.
