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

If your car has the same rims as my 05, then someone put those on it. No 2007 cars have these rims no matter what the build date. If you like them best that's cool you already have the swap! Member

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.

How did you secure it to the glass/weather stripping? silicone? glass glue? tape? I'm having a hard time finding a solution to resist theft. Emailed, searched w/o much info. Any help would be great. Thnx.
Tape and silicone work great! I would say silicone all the way. I had it on mine, when the guys try to steal it they end up breaking the roof spoiler in half, thats how strong the bond was.Originally Posted by zoomie

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

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?

Just bought a 05 c230 kompressor. Which wing do u guys think will look better on my car? the amg or sport spoiler? And is there any pictures of the 2 so i can see the different?
Newbie
you should definately get the c55 amg spoiler... the sport spoiler's got nothing on that!

You think CF lip/Roof spoiler/trunkspoiler would look weird on a Barolo Red 06 C230?
MBWorld Fanatic!
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. LOLOriginally Posted by Norwichdelta06

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.

Cheezy pls keep us updated thats actually a pretty legit deal if it fits properly =D

Sounds like a replica to me. No differences on the trunks from 2001-2007. Where'd you buy it? I ended up getting duped a LONG time ago for mine.Originally Posted by chkoo

Yup. It's fake. If it's from the same guys I got mine from, it's a really nice looking replica, but sounds 100% fake to me. You got away pretty cheap. I paid more through ebay (cheaper than retail, but more than you paid).Originally Posted by chkoo

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.
