i paid 250 for the front bumper only. dats all the guy had.
no they are not kami eye lids. i ordered them from the UK. i think they were 80 USD? might be cheaper.
i have a 97 C class. u can put the C43 bumper on the non face lifted cars with some mods. i believe koolvin in the UK put a C43 kit on his C180 1997.

it is not a perfect fit if u look closly pics dont do justice

looks pretty good. Great deal for original amg. It really does need the rest of the kit though. I am looking at a complet one for $550 shipped. He says it is an absolute perfect fit. 7 layer fiberglass too.

Hey TP, how come your auction listing looks all professional and why everything is spelled right?

Hey did you see that Brabus of North America put some springs up for $270? I can't believe you don't have any bids yet.

Where are you getting this from? Because I've some 7-layer fibreglas kits at the shop now and they are definitely NOT perfect fit. As a matter of fact, I've never seen a fibreglas kit that was perfect kit, and if someone who claims one exists, I would be cautious around him. Lorinser and Carlsson wouldn't advertise their kits as "perfect" either.

Brabus and AMG FRP/urethane kits are good fit.

C36 bumpers DO fit badly...the C43 kit is a lot better as far as fitting issues are concerned...
I always wondered what the AMG people have been thinking when they first manufactured the C36 kits...

Not a single after market fiberglass replice kit will fit good on a car...definitely NOT something I would want to have on my car.

Jack, wanna have a set of OEM bumperlights? I have 2 sets available .

greetingz,

This is what he claims. He said all you need to do is bolt it on and get it painted. I'm sure it will take a little body work, but that is expected.

I'll ask again... "where are you getting this from?"

Either buy one and tell us how it is, or tell us where we can get one of these perfect kits for ourselves!
