Question C43 AMG kit

I'm lookin either to buy the amg c43 kit or the lorinser kit for my car, I'm pretty sure that I've decided to get the c43. I just wanted to know if it will fit on my '95 w202. Any info will help, thanks.

the side skirts may fit. but the bumpers were redesigned for 98, which is the first year for c43. the front and rear bumpers appear to have different mounting points. u may have to use the 95~97 c36 amg kits if u don't wanna spend extra to get it to fit. hey, with enough cash, u can make anything fit on ur car...

You have to change the fenderwell trims, and a couple other things..but it's doable...check out MBenz's website..you'll see what you can do with your car

You should get the Reiger Tuning kit! I think that kit looks the craziest on a W202. Check out Luwins car in Eurotuner. I think it was out a few months back. Or better yet let me find some pics of it and post it up when I can.

Hey luwin that's your car? I've seen it at shows, like it alot. I was thinking about gettin the kit all the way around, the only thing is it may be too sporty. I can get good prices on Reigger stuff if anybody needs it.

Does anyone know where I can get an aftermarket C43 AMG complete kit for my 99 C280 Sport for cheap? What would the OEM ones run anyways?

C43 AMG Kit guy back on eBay

Hey Guys,

The guy selling the AMG C43 kit is back on eBay under new eBay ID: aerodynamic-sport (+1) Old one is aerodynamic-sports (+329).

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...875037577&rd=1

Why the change in ID? hmmmmm.... Maybe management dispute or something. But from reading this thread, it seems like the Kits for C43 years 98-99 body W202 are slightly different from 94-97 where the mount points are. So why is he classifying them as 94-99???

I e-mailed him and asked but no reply yet. I'll keep you posted.

The change in mounting only pertains to body kits that bolt on, e.g. AMG kits, or OEM.

Replica kits and fibreglas kits generally have no mounting provisions, so the person doing the install must fashion the mounting brackets. Because of this, any kit will fit a W202 MY1994-MY2000 (1993-1999).

Seller Vanished of eBay...

Thanks Scorchie,

Funny as fast as he had it on ebay, now the seller has vanished. He has nothing posted for sale anymore and he never replied to my e-mail.

Any other sources for the AMG C43 kits? This guy is doing something too fishy to me. How much is the OEM kit anyways from the dealer?

I bought (with a few friends) some of the Lorinser kits from this guy. The quality is pretty good (the fibreglas is thick) however it looks like the pieces were pulled from the mold a little early (it's going to take some bondo to bring back the shape of a couple areas).

Also, you have to fashion the mounting brackets. But for the price, it was worth it.

For a real C43 kit, you can check autoclass, or Steve (MBenzNL) has a few too, but shipping might make a difference due to the size. If you check with Steve, tell him I sent you.
