Any spoilers out there for the C230 Coupe?
About to buy my wife one of these bad boys... she loves them! I'm personally a Bimmer man myself, but my wife really likes these and I thought the ride was great as well, for the price you can't beat it.
My question is, Do they make spoilers for these? I saw a couple but too flashy for her, she just wants a small lip spoiler, does anyone make those? Any pics of your spoilers?
thanks guys!

RENNtech makes one, do a search using the forum search feature at the bottom of the W203 page and you'll find all about it, it's a simple lip that looks pretty good. tommy has one on his coupe.

I don't know if I want to tell you! I don't want to see them popping up everywhere, you know.
OK, kidding aside, it's from renntech; go to www.renntechmercedes.com - easiest way to order is to call there and ask for Bob Brady. Ask him if they have had better success with the new version. Mention my name - Tom Powell - and he'll understand. There were some issues with the shop up here (nj) trying to paint the spoilers (two different ones!) and them cracking. Bob said that it was how they tried to paint them, and I have no reason to doubt him.
They should be about $375 still (primered).

look under aerodynamics for some other examples of spoilers that you may like (eg. lorinser)
carlsson lists a rear wing spoiler, but no pic... ask for one. some other kooky spoilers too for your enjoyment!

tommy, when are we going to see some shots of your Renntech spoiler, or did you post some while I was napping?

Go to the "Upload Pics" link on the bottom right, then click to see the list of all pics, and you'll see my list. Easier than doing a search here.
I'm very happy with the final result, even if it did take 4 months to sort out.

Thanks guys. Tommy, I'm in NJ also... I'll try to keep the wife's baby benz away from yours so your spoiler will still be unique!
Thanks again for the info guys. I'll post some pics when we get her! Should be soon, only need to close the deal on her old car.

Good thing about the NBA Championship being over is no longer having to watch Shaq holding his big ol' hands over the basket to keep Nets' shots from going in. Boy, the Nets gave them a run for the money!
