400 cheaper than euroteck? I'm guessing the euroteck one will be around $5-600 since they've already said they're going for volume.

Yeah, it's legit. I have actually been talking to the maker/seller and trying to make a GB purchase. The GB price is even cheaper than the Ebay price.

i 100% saw it within the last couple of days for 895. I think its eurotek. maybe a brabus, vath or carlsson rep? i know it was 900ish because i just paid my bookie that exact amount on monday and remember thinking wow, there goes a new lip. oh well, being in new england i don't need or want it until the spring anyway.

hi Sticky, where did you see that, can you show us?
But I can see that Euroteck one being around $700-800 since the W203 is still for sale about $600. W204, being so new, they will most likely charge more and plus shipping.
Ok, it's the end of the week. Does Euroteck have the pictures and pricing for us?

Thanks everyone for the help.

Btw, i havnt been on this forum in awhile since my C Class got hit in the back by a 18 wheeler just a couple of weeks ago and ive been in and out the chiropratic and the lawers office.

Sorry i dont have any pictures from the accident but it was enough damage to have the bumper, both L and R Taillights, and the whole trunk to the replaced.

This was what neal said:

We do not use silver CF. Silver CF is actually fiberglass. Its very stiff and hard to work with.
Also, don't know if he'll be doing this, but typically euroteck introduces special initial pricing when products first come out.

Probably not. The JL one is most likely still cheaper, but was just disputing the claim that it's $400 cheaper. Shouldn't mislead other forum members with inflated numbers.

this one looks exactly like the EUROTECK lip, made in China. a lot cheaper. 1/3 of the price of the Euroteck list price. I wonder if that's where Euroteck lips are made....

Wow yea definitely alot cheaper. This looks like the average price the lips will be after they start mass producing them. This isn't for a W204 though.

exactly. that's why I think those lips have to be made either in Taiwan or China to be cost effective if Euroteck want to go for volumn for the W204 model just like AZN said.

Yeah, definitely, ours will not even be 600, it will be less, and we only charge 30 bucks for shipping and do no inflate that.

The lips will be done tomorrow (Saturday). We will have a car in next week with everything installed and pics and final pricing then, and then sell the 15 of them. We have 55 more W204 lips in production that will be done in about 3 weeks. Let me just tell you guys the front lip looks sick! You will all love it and be glad you waited for the style, price and quality along with a 3 year warranty.

Neil this is not the W204 lip. If you click on the link, you will see. it's for W211 and looks exactly like yours... did this Chinese company copy your design?
