Brabus

I hate to sound a discordant note here, but what is the difference between the two bumpers?

I can see the tiny air outlet slots or whatever they are at the bottom, and the round vs. square towing hook plug....but are those the only differences?

Both bumpers look perfectly fine to me, nearly identical!

From that angle it looks the same but when you put them side by side you can see that the stock is more rounded on the bottom. It curves in while the Brabus is not and comes out. The Brabus looks much better.

Congrats Jim, looks great. Good choice. Hehe.

good god. What size wheels does one need to use those? Do the calipers have dust seals (no I imagine b/c they are brembos)? What is the advantage over SL55 brakes or can you interchange and run SL 55 calipers?

BRABUS suspension question

I did search but seems not many peope have Brabus suspension setup.

For those of you who know, how's the ride quality with some 18"s? What kinda setup is it, just shocks and springs? It seems that it's a bit lower than the H&R cup kit.

TIA
