Thank you for the ONLY video that shows how to remove the W204 Front bumper on YOUTUBE ! You should do another one that shows how to do it completely :D !!!!
this is good! i went to ddmtuning the other day! i have a c350 and i wanted to get the exact same engine cover as you did you buy it like that? or did you paint it?
@SyncAhead The HIDs were pretty simple. At the time, I was still a novice at getting the the tight compartment to get the bulb out, so my difficulties were reaching the bulb and getting the xenon bulb in there without letting it touch anything. The only other thing is that you have to drill into the cap, but overall yeah!, it's a straightforward mod.
@wildmanowords That was painted using Krylon plastic fusion paint. There was no need for me to prime it because it wouldn't be exposed to road debris so it didn't need the extra resilience. It was a pretty simple mod though; just mask, and paint away.
geart video Mikonuj, can you also make a tutorial on removing the turn signal light bulb? i'm trying to chrome spray the bulb to get rid of the "egg yolk"
Just something to note. You might wanna use some painters/duct tape on your fenders while pulling out the fender liner so that the liner doesnt bend/scrape the fender. I can see yours is pretty damaged already.
@snarIingchicken Good advice, but it's more an optional, if not unnecessary, preparatory precaution. Those scuff marks you see in the video are just fingerprints and grime. The following post will show a picture of that portion taken just today, and as you will see...Spotless. =]
I cant get the damn thing unplugged!!!

Great tutorial. Was installing your HID's easy?

Did you just paint the engine block cover or is that an actual mod? If painted, what kind?

@mikonuj917
Sure you can clean it up but if you look at your fenders at @1:35 and @1:41, you can see the bends in the plastic of the fender.
I appreciate the DIY video by the way. But just for future reference is all seeing as you'll be working on the car's of others.
