Heres how it looks all black

Midnight Koop

+1 me too!

HellsAngel

i reiceved more "no we dont have it in stock : backorder 2 3 weeks"...

well contact the seller first, he shipped to france so he deals with a non local shipping company so he will ship to usa... if he says no then why not (i have never done this before but no problem)

and yes there is a mattig for the sedan

yes and i like it a lot in black... i think i will do it brabus style to see how it looks in person then decide.. its easy to switch from brabus to all black.. impossible to switch from all black to brabus
and that grill looks great on your car btw, cleaner, much cleaner...
i have nearly the same front mods, missing the blip
i think i will do a custom one this summer, the only drawback is that the roads in lebanon arent that good so fiber glass dont last long... )


as i told XsuperbeeX.. check with the seller first...




btw guys i think the seller had 3 mattigs for the coupe, 2 left after i baught mine, and apparently hes got only 1 left NOW....



EDIT : i contacted the seller (i think he'll reply fast since he knows i baught 1) asking him how many grill hes got left, and if he will ship to the states

Midnight Koop

thanks man... i did email the seller and am waiting for a response.

patiently waiting...

XsuperbeeX

Ya... i emailed him... and he said that they dont ship to usa... you have paypal??? i will send you on monday if you want... but how much from france to usa???

HellsAngel

i have no idea on how much france USA... and as i said hes got only 1 left... and id rather wait to reiceve the grill... maybe he didnt have it in stock...
are you sure you want to pay shipping to france 20euros then shipping to the usa, then maybe custom fees.. . ?


CoupeCrazy03 you painted your grill 040 black right ? (its not standard mattig color)... ?

CoupeCrazy03

Yeah it's painted...I think the grille comes flat black when you get it.

HellsAngel

yeah i think so

HellsAngel

just keeping you updated, he replied and told me that hes got 5 in stock... so i asked him if hes willing to make an effort and ship to the usa if you make a group buy... or if he can make a good deal if (we) buy 2 or 3 grills since you guys will have to pay shipping twice.... .

EDIT : 5 mattig coupe grills shipped to the USA : 80euro/grill... thats less than 110$... (combined shipping, 5 grills to the same adress..).
i just asked him how much for 4 and 3 and 2.. waiting

EDIT2 : he replied, and well his english isnt perfect but i think he meant 80euros shipped to the same adress for more than 2 grills... """"for the same adress, 2-5 pieces are 80,00 Euro!""""" so contact him again guys and tell him element-0@hotmail.com said you'd do that deal.... (you should be at least 2 : XsuperbeeX & midnight kompre)

Midnight Koop

sweet thanks!

i couldn't really make out the french ebay site. even with using "freetranslation.com" it was a pain.

so how will this work? he ships to you, and we paypal you... then you ship to us?

HellsAngel

thats why i told you concact him to make sure before oredering.. the guys english isnt very good... i think he said :
2 or more grills shipped to 1 adress in the USA : 80euro = 110$ / grill.

XsuperbeeX

so midnight wan to share?? anyway where you located?

Midnight Koop

ok.... so i contacted the seller via ebay and he said that shipping is 65 euros to the US for 1 grille, but 80 euros for 2 - 5 grilles. so if we purchase together we can split the shipping to 40 euros each.

only thing is that we have to ship again when its here, so that may cover the cost of shipping separately... unless we have enough buyers. i dont mind shipping them out from my place (post office is across the street from my place).

to answer your ques.. i live just south of washington DC in the suburbs.

if we do a "group buy"... i'll have to ask the mods for permission. shouldn't be a problem though. i've done it before when i found a guy with access to coupe bixenons.

XsuperbeeX

hmm... diff of 25 euro eh... wouldnt make much a different if I buy it myself... I tink... I dont mind though since I will be going out of the country in 2 weeks time... so you can help me hold on to it first...

HellsAngel

oh ok, i taught he said 80euros/grill shipped for more than 2 grills... actually its 80euros for the shipping without the grill !
thats about 180$.. still WAY better than the other deals

Midnight Koop

yeah.... i would have been more enthusiastic if the price were more like 120ish.... but 180 makes me hesitate. maybe we can hunt around to see if there will be another forum member or two who will bite on this.

joyofcola

im interested too....see if we can get a few more coupe members to join us..btw soo its getting sent to one place and then shipped to us from that place?

Midnight Koop

yeah... from my understanding...

HellsAngel

unless you want to pay 65 for shipping.. that would be around 200$ total...

XsuperbeeX

so its 3 now... anymore?

joyofcola

i have 2 friends here that drive coupes ill ask them to see if they are interested so how much is the grill itself?

joyofcola

if we all get the mattig grill it seems like no more coupes will have the star grill haha

HellsAngel

dont worry, its quite expensive & hard to mod a coupe because there is no "made in china" parts.... id estimate that less than 1% of the coupes are modded... agree ?? VERY RARE : brabus lips, bix, lorinser spoilers, mattigs...



and any idea on the percentage of the coupe's in the w203 ???

XsuperbeeX

bix and lorinser spoilers not rare just rare to find cheap...

HellsAngel

which makes them rare...
