Sorry BrabusCClass, I got there very late in the day as it was my daughters opening day for softball in the morning and I couldnt miss that. When I was there there were 4 MB, the 2 Coupes and two E-Class. Showing up around 2:30PM was the Kleemann CLK430K. I did not know which one was yours. Was it the black E with the big B where the hood emblem is?

Oh. Well my car was the first car in the same row as the silver C230K. It was the black C240 with brabus body kit. It had the MBworld.org sticker on the front bumper. There is a pic up on Benzsport.com that the E class in front of the silver C230K took if you want to see.

does any one know were we can get the MBworld.org sticker for the car. To me this form is like a car club and it would be nice to meet other member, the sticker would help identify.
Thanks

i asked simon for a mbworld sticker a while ago but i don't know if they have anymore b/c he never sent it to me. he's probably very busy. i'll just have to force him to give me a few when i visit evosport and then i can send them out to people who want one. june.

Thank you everyone for your complements! I just had my grill painted at my body shop. They sanded down the chrome and just matched the paint to my body color. It has a very nice finish minus the few chips I get. I had it repainted a day before the show to get rid of the chips. I also had the body shop paint my bumper lenses. I found out that Evosport sells the prepainted lenses if anyone is interested in those. And the MBWorld.org sticker is also available from Evosport. Mach430 (Ben) gave me mine at the show. Maybe you can ask him if he can get you one.
