and of course, you're going to have to share the information, on where you found it at such a low price !!!

share the wealth (or lack of it ! )

I always forget that underlined stuff might be / may be a LINK.

Anyway, oh I see, it's a REPLICA.
No wonder the price is so low.

I'm looking for authentic OEM real-stuff AMG.
Seen too many non-fit issues and non-malleable rigid spoilers on these eBay knock-offs. Good luck.
Let us know how it goes, and hopefully you won't have to drill on the trunk just to keep it in place.

I've got a feeling the only difference in this strip of plastic between the "real" thing are the words the MADE IN GERMANY The fact that the "original" design is AMG is pretty insignificant to me. I love the look of thin, lip-style spoilers.
I would NEVER drill my trunk lid to mount anything. I should get the spoiler next week. I'll post pix of the install

cjbanville, you certain don't deserve that negative feedback on ebay.

yes, please post pics of the spoiler once installed. You being an active contributer on the forum, I am looking forward to knowing the fitment and quality of the spoiler.

There are plenty of idiots on eBay, but it's still the best thing since sliced bread

There was another thread, Jim cancelled his order. Spolierdepot did not have it in stock, would take 3 weeks, etc. and gave him the run around.

Someone else needs to order it!

I'll say it again,
SpoilerDepot and everything they sell on eBay sucks.
Bad customer service, bad quality, bad products.......

if you want AMG style, go real AMG !

i spoke to jerry on monday about his spoilers. in about a week or so, he will be getting new lip spoilers made out of eurthane (from italy?). it's suppose to be better than what he currently has in stock (on his website). he mentioned that eurothane is a better material and it will not lift as some spoilers do. you guys who are more knowledgable about this stuff might want to call him for more details.

post your spoiler pics, so we can tell if it's the C55 AMG spoiler,
or the MB 2005 accessory spoiler.
