It must be the cheesy wood appliques.

It does make me appreciate having my cloth swapped out; that pattern is seriously hideous. I have no idea what they were thinking.

you are right about the pattern, but how could someone invest in a full brabus kit and not in the leather package !!! wood trim could be easly replaced with CF..

Interesting. I have a set of Brabus coupe springs and the rears are NOT progressive. What is the part # for the springs that you have?

Real, or frabus?

If real, Action Tire in Lodi is a distributor. CEC is the official US wholesale distributor; you could contact them for others as well.

He used to be a member on the forum (supershyguy), and I just emailed him about a potential group buy (yet again) to see if we could save on the lips. They're 200 for the front (250 shipped w/in US), so if we could get them for 150 (200 shipped)... I think it would be worth it.

they dont ship int'l
but keep me updated on the group buy if 200 shipped i might consider it if shipping's to france or lebanon does not cost a leg...

C230 Sport Coup + 2006 W164 ML350 + 99 Ford Escort (What the heck, it gets 38 mpg!)
These are fiberglass...not plastic like the rear Brabus.
Checked username 'infected' for opinions on the install of the frabus front lip.
He wasn't real happy with the fit etc.

He's selling his, now repaired and replacing it with an actual Brabus lip.
