I'm in the same boat.

been looking for oem AMG front bumper so I can do the CF lip for my car.

didn't know Gary has those... I'll have to check those out, thanks.

I also found this place... they are also one of the sponsors here.

front bumper only:

entire body kit:

their "duraflex" is interesting. if it does what it claims, I just might have to go for it even though I really wanted genuine AMG/MB bumper.

wonder how the fitment is...

those extremedimension ones look nice but not much of a fan of fibreglass due to its lack of flexibility which are more prone to damage i believe the the other better material is polyeurothane not sure on that but just trying to remember off the top of my head

according to the site the duraflex material is made of fiberglass, plastic, and flex resin.

they have a video up where they are beating the crap out of it.
seems strong but I don't know...

what is the OEM bumpers made out of anyone know?

keep waiting for MB AMG bumper to fall into my lap... in my paint.

edit: guess you saw the vid. lol.

2003 CLK 320
i wouldnt get the duraflex bumpers. at least on the CLK ones, the fitment isnt always good and it needs to be adjusted by a professional to fit correctly. so you and your installer will be given the headache.

if im not mistaken, you can get the c-sport kit which is the amg kit that mercedes gives stock correct? try to find one used on ebay. i saw plenty out there that fit the c. im currently waiting for a CLK one to pop up on ebay =/

well, heck, found original Mercedes AMG style bumper.

original Mercedes equipment:
http://www.rmeuropean.com/Part-Numbe..._5C1313F8.aspx

$914.25 ...... unpainted... heck no, not just so I can place a CF lip. lol

too bad about fitment of the duraflex. sounded promising even though not a OE MB part.

I'll check ebay. thanks for the tip.

Here is a link to Gary's thread:

https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...it-poly-8.html

There is a picture of my ride so you can see what it looks like and how it fits. It is not an exact replica of the OEM bumper. It is close and it works for me. I actually bought the front bumper with lip, side skirts, rear bumper and now the rear CF trunk lip from Gary. High recommended

ah heck!

Gary offers them included with clear projector fog lights AND Euro strips! OMG!

I'm in Cali so this will be very convenient.

I think Gary is out of the front CF lip, if I'm not mistaken, but soon as he gets them, I might have to do this.

Thanks for the link Wardsweb.

p.s. your car looks great!

Yes it comes with Euro strips. I didn't use them on mine, so gave them to HCALVAREZ.

Thanks on the kudos.
