What like is your bumpers and what colour are you thinking of

Ummm..
What do you mean by what like is my bumpers.
They are the normal black bumpers that come with 94/95 W124s.
My car is blue(in two metallic shades-top a lighter blue-bottom is darker).
I want to make the bumpers the same as the body colour..

Definintely color-code the bumpers and side mouldings.

All MB's post 96 have color-coded bumpers and mouldings.

Color-coded bumpers and mouldings give the car a MUCH smoother look.

But it needs to be done right - use a good bodyshop otherwise it'll look bad.

Akers,

Hmmm, difficult call. I've the same colour scheme on my 124 and have often wondered the same. If you get it done can you post some piccies?

Thanx guys.
I think i want to keep the two-tone base colour-scheme though....
It's kinda like the insignia of this model shape.
So there's more food for thought...
