i just got this and it does not fit my bumper reinfocement, anyone know which trim reinforcement i need to get this thing ok?? i have an 05 nonsport c230.
thanks

 

cut it. im pretty sure thats what everyone did.

 

My body shop guy retrofit it (cut and trim). Ask your guy to look out for gaps on the grill and headlights. Also, paint your fog light housing black.

 

im planning to get my headlight color matched like c24owner ^^

 

chkoo! where did u get the bumper from???

 

i got it form rpi equipped on number 6, it was on sale in dec for like 300 bucks.... but i missed it. total price was like 800 including tax?
i think someone has it for sale and hes in Vancouver as well, go check classified.

 

so i just got back from the bodyshop, turns out the bumper is a maybe half inch bigger than the stock one and the intercooler is stikcing out of the hole where the grill is supposed to be.... he said that its possible to install it but i will not be able to put the mesh in without some modification so he suggested having no mesh and just have the intercooler painted black.

 

post pics when ur car's finished!

 

sure thing, heres a teaser

 

More teasers!!! Your car is going to look very nice with the kit. Definitely going to be top 10

 

thanks karo, no more teaser pics for now, but i get my car back wed
cant wait

 

Dont forget to angle your car going down steep driveways.

 

DONE
just picked it up, more pics to come
fitment was kinda off,

 

looks like my twin

 

Did ya only get the front bumper?

 

yea, for now.
still deciding between the rieger kit or the amg kit with diffuser.

lol yea, u should black out ur intercooler

 

You didnt black out the fog light housing? Still a nice set up though.

 

haha kinda forgot to tell the bodyman, that thing comes out easily anyways, ill prolly diy it sometime when i got time

 

that's the heat exchanger. the intercooler is under the supercharger.

 

hahah well whatever it is i tihnk it looks better blacked out

 

looking good chkoo!

hey i remembered u lowered ur car rite? what kinda coilovers did u get? how much? and where?

i wanna drop my car as well. just got new rims and wanna lower the gap.

im planning to go for koni yellows
btw do u live in richmond? i think i saw u on number 3 once lol

nothing beats a silver heat changer/intercooler look for intimidation. LOL

 

yea i wanna lower my car by 1.5 inches. its sitting up a bit high atm.

btw, do u or anyone u know need stock 16" rims for spares? im willing to part for dirt cheap cuz of the new rims.

i actually live in vancouver near oakridge mall. i work in delta though so i always pass by richmond everyday. did u just see me recently? u shoulda cut in front and said hello! lol
