New C36 FB Body kits, pics attached

I just found one on sale for C36 Fiber Glass Kits. I believe you can get it for less than erebuni price. Take a look at it and let me know any one has one installed before.

By the way, where can i can the fog lights which will fit this kit?

by looking at the kit itself, there are no holes on side skirt for the OEM car jack. If you have a flat, how to change the spare?

I think the only choice is to call mb road side assistance center

pics for the manufacture!

email them at bodykit@ecarboy.com, they will give you complete details.

by the way shipping in CA is USD185, and other US states for USD195 by truck only. If you live in CA, you can pick it up and payfor USD50 handling charge.

kits in truck on its way..........

Most aftermarket kits do not have holes for the jack, so you have to get a new jack that goes under the car...

as for foglights, you'll just have to get factory C36 fogs...

this is a new manufacture in california, don't know the quality of their products, i know someone bought it less than 500 including shipping.

from the pictures attached, it should not be the bad! it does not require to remove your existing bumpers. in attached to the lower part of your existing bumpers (waist line).

i don't know this manufacture accepts group buy due to different shipping address in US.

my best bet is to contact manufacture directly and see how long can you go!

I think someone said those kits are made in HK...In asia there's plenty of companies that make replica kits...some better quality than others...but yes, $500 is really cheap...but don't forget the labor that it will cost to install and paint it. Since it's a 3/4 bumpers, they will have to mount it to your stock bumpers (more labor). Also, these fg kit's will tend to crack a lot more than urethane ones (like your stock bumpers). If you find a real AMG kit painted the same color as your car, it might turn out better in terms of price (not to mention quality). But then again, it's a lot harder to find.

And you'll need to get some C36 foglights. I think MBenz has a set for sale.
