Carbon fiber spoiler for Sportcoupe
Well, here in portugal it is very problematic getting a Brabus front spoiler for my sportcoupe, the official store says, "we only sell Brabus Complete fronts, there aren´t spoilers for the sportcoupe" DAMN, this guy don´t understand nothing about Mercedes and Brabus. Well, now what i´m thinking is, i have a friend that is a pro working with carbon-fiber, and i will ask him if he can make a replica, from the brabus spoiler(from the pics i can get), and my doubt is, should i let the spoiler in carbon fiber color, or should i paint it like brabus one?
Comments will be gratefull.
Best regards
P.s This is the spoiler

In a serious note...if its just a chin spoiler, you can leave it carbon fiber. (thats the whole point in getting it carbon fiber right). BUT i think everyone thinks you are getting a whole front KIT in carbon fiber...and thats kinda ehhhhhhhh...well...wierd. Even rockets dont have whole kits in CF...just the hood. Hey...that'll probably look pretty sweet...CF hood on a silver cclass would look sick!

I dont understand. What are you doing? Brabus does not make any type of lip. Are you talking about what I have? Please clarify. Do you have any pics? Also, if its a front chin then leave it carbon. Mines carbon.

OK I just went there. So? I dont see it. Am i just blind? Are you talking about the add on front bumper. That is not a carbon fiber lip. I DO KNOW MY INFO AND I DONT UNDERSTAND. I went to www.brabus.com and I dont see any type of bottom lip, chin, or spilitter. Show me a pic of a carbon fiber lip brabus makes TING. http://www.brabus-online.de/prog03e.htm

A carbon fiber lip would be tight if you had a black car like BrabusC, but if youre car is red or something i wouldnt advise it. Paint it to match the car or something. As for those spoilers; are you on crack? i see civics and integras with them all the time. makes your car look like a shopping cart. I beg of you! dont ghetto-fy your car with them. i've seen a SLK with one that was aluminum, killed it!!! but thats just me

Does the above picture show the lip?
Maybe my terminology is incorrect.
By LIP I am refferring to the add on to the stock bumper that Brabus makes. The front "spoiler" if you will in the above picture is not a complete bumper replacement.
Aren't front ADDON spoilers also called lips?
Anyhow back to the original post. I think he's trying to use carbon fiber to replicate the brabus front spoiler style. Therefore, NO Brabus doesn't make a Carbon Fibre chin spoiler. No one claimed they do.
You just asked if Brabus makes front Spoiler/lips for the W203 and LorinserLV2 proved it to you
