Brabus Lip Kit Where To Purchase?

Like the title states, where can you still purchase the brabus lip kit for a W203 Coupe? I see the replica sold on here but would prefer the authentic. I've searched but to no avail. Thanks in advance!

don't think you could find the authentic one anymore

but the replica one would be that much of a difference

That's the same guy selling the replicas on here correct? My concern is fitment and quality. I don't want to spend a ton of money to make it look/fit perfect as the original. I guess I'm stuck in a dilemma then.

You can still find a real one if you try and is willing to pay.

There should still be 1-2 brand new lips floating around.

I'll keep my eyes peeled then. Definitely prefer fitment and quality of the authentic over the rep regardless of how much cheaper the rep is.

I think that was the same place I was looking at last night in my searches. I was having issues of adding it to cart though.

used, but no difference, then get it repaint to my car color, another 100, done

what's nice about Authentic lips is you almost don't need any screws or glue all, they are just snap on

Hahah, yah, $2800 seems like the price of a kit and not just a lip.

That is the whole reason I want the authentic one. Fitment seems to be perfect from the reviews I've read.

I'm seeing them listed all over the net for 2800 for front and rear. http://www.bodykits.com/Brabus/Body-...Brabus/533226/

Same listing for myhotmercedes.

Even the Carlsson lips go for $1400 and Lorinser bumpers go for $1700.

Where are you looking?
I'll check around on Monday to see if anyone still has one in stock.
Do you want the front only or the rear as well?
