Expression Aero Kit

I saw an advertisement in Benzo for http://www.expression.be I really like the Aero kit on the featured C class sedan. Unfortunately the site has not content from what I can tell. Does anyone know anything about this company and their products?

Do they make the front bumper replacement for the sport coupe?

Expression body kits are being sold by Performance Products, CA.
Go to www.performanceproducts.com for details. As far as I know it doesn't look like they make a kit for the coupe, only the sedan. I could be wrong as I was just looking through their catalog.
I'm going to get their rear dual exhaust valence for my car!
Good luck!

Thanks for the response. I have been searching the net for three damn days and couldn't find anything on this kit. I like because of the larger opening like the M3's. It sucks how little is out there for the coupe.

EDIT-- The product catalog ofcourse says that the kit isn't for the coupe...

i heard the kit doesn't fit too well... i went to rbtech and the guys over there told me that the rear has to be molded, he said try to avoid them, but if you really want it, it can all be done...

How do you mold the rear?
As it looks the rear valence replaces a piece of the bumper.
Should be a direct replacement.

Are you speaking of the entire rear bumper?

not really sure, all i was told was that the add-on bumper doesn't fit too well. however, if you go to a good enough body shop it can be done. a lot of bodykits are like that especially replicas, but i was surprised to hear that the expression doesn't fit too well. if you want more info i would recommend calling rbtech. they're the ones that told me.

Thanks for all the feedback. I spoke to Expression and they said that currently they are working on the new CLK then the Coupe is next. I only want the front bumper, I like the larger opening, looks more aggresive. I want the AMG rear bumper.

Do you have a site link or number for rbtech?
