There are no MB option fogs (or other as far as I am aware).

Only the AMG bumpers have fogs.......££££

I looked for these when I had my Benz, all I found was a guy in states who had fabricated something out of the facelift ML fogs, it looked very good but this was a one off..

PIAA do some nice small ones, not specifically for the 202 but I have seen a picture of some on a 210.

I have seen some fitted like the newer model AMGs, just hidden in the gap and covered with mesh.

Driving with Xenons on is allowed. Make sure people know you have a proper motor and they should get out the way :D

When I first took delivery off my car I used to drive with bixenons on during the day to allow the gases to discharge/settle - I had to contact MB Tech Support as at first the fogs appeared to be dim in comparison to my previous W203s... they said by driving around with the xenons on will over time allow the fogs to brighten/lighten up to full capacity and that the dimness of the fogs was related to the discharge of gas from the xenons - fogs are perfect now and quite bright....

WHen I used to drive with the bixenons on I did used to get recations from some idiots (I was not doing anything wrong...) - best one was one afternoon I had a BMW 5 Series (new shape) approaching headon … as the BMW was approaching he decided to put his high beam dips on in an attempt to blind me/make a point… I then immediately turned my high beam dips on and blinded him good a proper… ;) and he didn’t even bother to look into my car as he was passing me afterwards… made me smile afterwards…

I have to admit that the xenons do look quite cool when on during the day... but can provoke reactions from others....
