C55 lip

$199 painted, isnt that cheap? spoilerdepot.com is where I found them. Has anyone bought from them? Just wanted to know the quality. Also anyone spotted the w203 lip instead of the C55 from other site besides formymercedes.com? I wanna do a comparison on prices.

I think that is kinda cheap. I remember pricing them at around $600 or so. Maybe I was getting jacked, but that was from MB.

I'm sure the one from spoilerdepot has to be a replica. Still, that's a good price. I'd be most worried about the paint matching.

Sounds like a good price, though. Cost me $150 to have my front bumper repainted and blended, and that was just the paint job.

It's a rear lip spoiler, not a bumper

The feedback for that place isn't too good at bizrate.com.

$199 is realy cheap, spoilerdepot will be a replica. i have seen a 337 spoiler for a VW from them once. looked good but the paint was not a dead on match. very close but not dead on. the Formymercedes spoiler for me was a dead on match.

i bought my BMW OEM replica spoiler from spoilerdepot.com about 3 years ago. not sure how good they are at matching MB's paint, but it was dead on with my factory paint. car was only about a month old when i had it installed.
