I personally think its real Brabus, it will fit, but i think you'll need a new airbag.

CEC is now Brabus distributor for the North America. CEC's warehouse is in Gardena. That is a authentic 3-spoke W203 steering wheel, but it will only fit 01-04.5 that came with the 3-spoke steering wheel. It will not work for any 05-07 W203.

I just purchased a set of SLK springs from these guys. Everything looks legit and the transaction was very smooth.

The guy, Walter, followed up via email, phone and even a letter.

I will suggest you call them and negotiate the best price.

Do you have a coupe or sedan? Brabus makes an add-on lip for the coupes and a full bumper replacement for the sedans. You can see the lip on my car in my signature below. I bought mine from K1 Motorsport, had it painted when I had my front bumper resprayed for a couple hundred bucks and installed myself. PM me if you have any questions.
