In this picture it looks exactly the same as on any other C Coupe trim.

Acutally, it adds that extra AMG "line" to the bottom of the fender...

Whoops, my bad. You're right, I don't see any change in the spoiler myself, just the lower fender...

Guess I should have said that it doesn't show it at all.

Fast Cars!
i never minded the coupes rear end.
Now that i have the H&R suspension and #1 spring pads in the rear the car looks compeltly different from any other c coupe in person.

The back is completly level. and is not slanted up like it used to be.

The AMG spoiler is as wide as the boot (trunk)...one piece as, thick as th rear light clusters top flat edge and raised by 20mm...I have been trying for ages now to sort out time with a friend who is BIG time into photography (he drives an Audi TT 225)...purely to sort out some shots for this forum...I know I have been posting for a little while...I even considered not saying that I had recieved my car until we got pictures done!!!(for fear of getting roasted-as a non owner)I would love to show my baby to you all particularly the AMG styled bits...up close
.....I guess now I have stated my intentions I had better get on with them..............Hopefully you will all love them

I like the rear of the C230K, it may not be what you typically expect on an MB, but that's fine by me. It certainly grows on you. Its distinctive, and the whole car is unlike anything else on the road. I love the looks and the questions you get from people whove never seen one before. Around here, they are more rare than a Mini.

Besides, the C230K nose is better looking than most other MB's, save the SL500 or the CLK.
