1992 - Mercedes 190E (Pink Benz) new inteior

that colour should be horrible, but it just looks so right

very nice merc

I was told by the previouse owner it is a BMW colour, allthough I'm not sure because I havent been able to find it.

Update:
Here is how she is at the moment.

ive decided to put the girl back on the road!! although its not all good news. I booked it in for a service, as it had been stood for about 10 months. the morning I went to take her I found the hand break had seized on over night, so I decided to give it a bit of welly to get it moving. whatever I did, I did some damage! I have a noise coming from the rear so I'm going to have to look into that before I get to drive her again

Ive done a bit of maintenance over the last month to get her looking good again. but being put off by the weather atm.

still to do
- Paint door handles, Window, mirrors & roof trim.
- Replace Diff with the silent one from my other 190
- Complete new black leather interior (dash and all) from my other 190
- Replace wheels
- Lower 40mm
- Give the underside a bit of protection from potential rust.

Recent jobs done
- Paint bumpers satin black
- Replace chrome strip
- Engine bay tidy
- Got her moving, battery sorted & replaced punctured tyres.

PICTUES:

I thought it would be a good idea to give it a clean under the bonnet:


After:



Front Before paint:


Rear Before Paint:



For the sake of not scratching the paintwork I decided to paint on the car:




The end result, also replaced the plate with a new one and gave it a chrome surround. cant make my mind up if there is too much chome on it now??



Did the same on the front:




This also has a new plate:



I decided to replace the chrome bead that goes around the car:


At first I paniced because I thought I took off the paint, but unfortunately it has been left on when painted


when all cleaned up it had quite a jagged edge so replacing it was a must:


Removing the protective film off the new chrome strip:



I'm in the process of replacing the cloth interior with black leather, so more updates to come

That colour just works so well with that car. I love it, looks a lot better with the new chrome strips ;D

awesome thanks! that day I would have been on my way from Hinckley to Cadbury world took my girlfriend there for valentines day. I'm glad it made an impression haha

passed its MOT today after a couple of small jobs. just sorting out a few pics of the interior swap ive now finished, and a few other pics of things being sorted out. hopefully ill get these uploaded tomorrow.

Looking good! Black interior goes with the pink much better than the blue!
MB-Tex stays looking great forever too, closest thing to leather but doesnt crack or dry out!
