Is formymercedes.com the same as directcartoys on ebay. They share the same images.

Nowhere ...Fast
if they are what they show in the picture then the fitment was good. I would recomend you use the Black silicone to sttach it, otherwise the tape comes off in hot/cold weather.

Make sure you clean the glass with rubbing alcohol prior to install, the clean surface is the key

its pricier...but i searched through the forum & it came highly recommended
the sport lip spoiler:

also, another reason not going through ebay is the paint/quality. i dont want to put something cheap where the paint will fade or chip off.
if u do order that, u prob want an unpaint one, and find a respectable body shop to paint it.

what kind of black silicone do you recommend? if you were to ever remove, would it leave a mark to repaint?

Barolo red has an elegant look and I honestly believe CF might match but I would keep them same color. I would color match them all and keep it looking classy.
Elegant/Classy look
Sporty Look
But if your into the sporty look it still will look nice just I myself will keep the elegant look by color matching them.

LMAO, that's China for you. They prob made the badges in the same factory and figured they'd kill two birds with one stone and take the pic for the ebay auctions w/ the badges and wings on. LOL
And yes, I agree w/ the color matching. I like the idea of how you can color match the Carbon and keep it more subtle.

I had to go to drastic measures (drilling) in order to get it to stay on the trunk. Not even the shop glue would hold it down. I always said that at some point, I'd replace it with an authentic Carlsson, but I've been too lazy and concentrating on other things to spend money on, so never got around ot it.
