Cool The ONLY C230 Kompressor BLACK SERIES



BLACK SERIES, what you know bout that huh?

Just kidding guys...

Since the M3 got some CF goodies for the front (giving it CF in the front and rear now), the C230 needed some more CF as well. So, I decided to FINALLY pull the trigger on a Carbon Fiber C55 style spoiler (eBay of course). The fitment is good, not horrible, but not as good as I would have liked. But at least the cars match and both have CF on the front and rear

I used double sided tape to mount it.

Here are some pics. Please excuse the dirty car, it's been raining here (and will rain tomorrow) and the dealer "washed" the car on Tuesday.









p.s. I'll be merging this thread into the spoiler thread after a bit.

Thanks man!

I haven't really driven it a while with it on, but it feels pretty sturdy to me. It's definitely not easy to pull the spoiler off.

Nice. It looks very subtle on black, definitely better suited for darker colored cars.

Looks great Phil!

Oh, it sure does look like the dealer just "washed" your car. Look at the swirls in the 1st pic. Time to get busy with the polisher

Very Nice

Have the same spoiler but on a silver car, don't know what others think, but I like it alot. Hopefully they make a CF diffuser for our cars too

Here is a picture of mine, sorry for the bad picture quality.
