2012 C63 Black Series front bumper and fenders?
If the new 2012 wider front fenders and front bumper were offered and fit the 2008-2011 model is there an interest?? I know some will get the black series all together but others don't have the cash but like the new aggressive look. Is this look even appropriate for the sedan or wagon or just the new BS coupe?
Just asking??
What do you guys think? You would need to keep your stock headlights and hood.

So the BS wider front fenders and front bumper on our sedan cars.
Can anybody photoshop it so I can figure out how it would look on previous headlights !
If so, I'm in. Good job Keith !

Its similar to the F1 bumper that Revozport already put out. Just a little more aggressive. I don't want to take anything away from those that bought the BS. Only problem is they are few and far between. They also made all of them come over with the glass roof etc... and thats not beneficial for racing. It would also give those of us that road race the opportunity to run wider front tires which these cars desperately need.

without a matching rear wide fenders, the BS front fenders would likely look "too" wide when compared to the rear.
Now replica BS front fender/bumper with a rear wide fender kit would be HOT HOT HOT, especially on a sedan!!

oooooohhh shut the f up you big cry baby...cars get modded all the time, thats the fun and hobby of it all... it's not like it's some kind of religion. Blasphemy...LOL stop crying. Those who have the BS will have enough ways to identify that they paid through the nose for it so don't worry you little b1tch...
The BS is sweet, what better way to emulate the design of a legend. That's like saying every owner of a 328i with M3 rims will disgrace the M3.
The c63 will be just that and the BS will be a BS.

I'd be very interested in this! I've always been more of a fan of the sedan anyhow (not that the coupe looks bad!), and the front end is the best asset of the BS imo. It may look a bit too wide compared to the rear for those of us without the widebody, but oh well it's already out of proportion so what's a couple more inches! Plus, that front end is just too menacing.
Couple questions:
- would these be original MB parts? and if so, are you able to source these?
- I'm wondering how the sedan side skirts would tie in with the BS fenders? I'm assuming a flare at the front of the side skirts would need to be molded on?
- I'm assuming to run our current wheels, we're going to need spacers. Any idea on what sizes? How much wider is the front track of the BS?
Please let us know what you find out! This would be an awesome upgrade for us sedan guys.

I would be VERY interested in an option that provides BS-ish fenders on a '12 coupe.
BS was not an option due to cost, availability and timing. I have no desire to pass off a "fake" BS, but would like a more aggressive look and additional rubber on the road.

I'm sure it could be done but will be very expensive and you wouldn't recoup much of the cost at resale. The issue with our cars are not the width of the front wheels/tires, but the back wheels/tires. Increasing wheel/front tire size without a corresponding increase in the rear wheels/tires will not yield much of a handling gain and I think the car will look even more out of proportion with only the wider front fenders.

BS style fenders have already been done before, but not with a BS style front bumper
These front fenders doesn't look as aggressive as the actual BS front fenders though.

I knew i've seen pics of it before.

You will sell way more rear fender flares than fronts
Everyone needs more rear tire
When is the rear set-up coming????
Weren't you guys working on that several months back???

Not sure I agree with your assumption. Remember that the front fenders are easy because they just bolt-on. The rears require significant bodywork...

As opposed to tearing off your complete front end, re-installing new fenders and bumper, realigning everything and then doing body work, sanding, smoothing and repainting to match?
and then wishing you had a rear set to match
