This looks great and is simple?

I can handle simple.

So how much? Part Numbers?
I have to agree with you on the too much color thing. That is what I was thinking with my gray interior and it is more of an issue with Cedar. I did see a picture of a cedar interior with a black Crossfire wheel and it looked really good and it was that picture that got me thinking.

I don't have part numbers as I found my new wheel and air bag on Ebay. Other MB wheels may work fine but I had a feeling the the SLK R170 would be a direct swap like most any SLK part on a Crossfire. The R170 came with two different wheels. Mine is the latter. The MB color is Anthricite. I have notice the MB wheel has a nicer softer feel. I was hoping to change the center emblem with Crossfire emblem but the guy who made the badges on my car said it would be too expensive for a one off emblem. Prices are what ever you find on Ebay.
