Mine has bothered me since I got the car, its a bit dented and scratched, I suppose its in the firing line when the car is loaded. I had a look at it the other day and there is also a gap between the trim and the boot seal, I suppose it gets pushed flat when the boot closes.


There are a number of clips along the aperture but they don't appear to be doing anything. I think they should clip to that leading edge to hold the chrome down


it all needs a good clean.
All the clips look the same so are they all broken? I imagine they are pence even from merc. I'm keeping an eye open for a replacement chrome piece as they are over £100 from merc but it may come to that in the end.

Has anyone done this and/or can confirm that the clips are broken?

Thanks David
 
I've found a couple on ebay but they are still a bit bashed. Its the clips I'm as interested in.
Anyone got a w211 who could post pic.
