Since the manufacturer calls themselves Aerodynamic Design, I assume this kit has been wind tunnel tested and the numbers in re: reduced lift and or drag are available?

can't agree with this kit. the lip spoiler is okay, but the rest is just so patchy and does not flow.

I'll see what I can do, but pictures will be hard to come by cause he already drove back to norcal. As soon as I get more info, I'll inform the forums. I do know they're not available as I've had a few shops call me about it already :p

rear might be a bit rice, but i don't think the front is. either way it's nice to see an option for luxury models as there's really nothing for them.

looks great

i would keep the benz logos chrome, and have sliver polished wheels... then it would be perfect (for my tastes at least)

i would like to see more pics to judge, black car, black theme at night does not do justice. Rear looks iffy.

always great to have more options, either good or bad.

I think it looks great. Good job.

Azn_C300--- I love your car in your signature, too, looks clean.

I'm sure 90% of the members here have the sport package, I would fall into the 10% that do not, so let me be the first to say..... hooray for a lux option! finally! more please...

I'm tired of seeing all of these pictures with the badass diffusers you guys are adding to your already great looking rides, while I am stuck with my lux package incompatibility. I'm grateful for just being able to have clear side markers at this point.

Well said. I got a great deal on the Lux when I bought it, now I'm shooting myself in the foot

yeah, that was one of the main points I was trying to make that went over several people's heads. There's very very little option for you luxury folks and love it or hate it, this at least presents more options for your neglected segment.
