I like the CL styled grill! I have been debating on whether to get it or not for a month now. Was it hard to install and was the extended hood latch extra when you ordered the grill or was it included?

Factory wing looks awesome but expensive. My replica is pretty good and its made of Urethane. I just had to use clamps to make sure there was no gaps and get the 3M tape to stick for 24 hours.

The Hood Latch was easy to install and comes with the grill. I followed the instructions on one of the forum links when I did a search.

I wanna try to make everything black on my car and hopefully I will get some money and buy some black wheels(19's) with H/R's.

FrankW is right. You can purchase the grill or spoiler from Ebay or formymercedes. Unfortunately I was not into buying from ebay and wanted to buy it from FMM because I needed the hood latch and one of the ebayers did not have it.

By the way, I was reading about someone in Canada trying to develop a front lip for the AMG bumpers and there is a local shop around me who does custom body kits and stuff and I will ask if they can modify or make a lip to fit our cars. Hopefully I can be the first to have one and than sell a few to you guys.

The C55 forum had the pics of someone modifying a lip to fit the AMG bumper which was cool. But I think that person gave up on producing them.
