Nice, i'm excited to see it.. is this a c63 'style' bumper? or did you go all out with hood/fenders and stuff as well ?

Since it is not a direct swap, right?

-Reno-

its a full kit made fo non AMG with perfect fit
no need for modifications

whos the seller?

blue00r6

yeah I would be interested in just the bumper if it looks good

Interesting. I've been eyeing the AMG style front bumper for base 204s for a while, but the one thing that kept me from pulling the trigger was guarantee that any of the c63 lips would fit. Looks like you have a C63 lip. Was that made specifically for the kit by the same vendor, or just any of the other lips for stock C63 bumpers? Source info?

Mike i will keep u posted i might be geting the front bumper soon and i no u told me before that you would want a lip with it and this bumper has a lip of its own not the one in this thread but as soon as i get it ill keep u posted

Ebay, look for "benz vs bmw"
Awesome guy, helped me all the way, very responsive


quality is amazing, look and feel just like OEM, made of PP (not the fiberglass) and fitting was perfect

i got the lip with the kit, im not sure if it was specially made for it
i can ask, i wanna know if real AMG addons will fit as well

more pics tomorrow

Nice!

Cant wait to see the pics! do you have a link to this exact kit? I looked briefly and there are a bunch on there, can't tell what is chinese bs vs. what is not.

Keep me up to date bro. And hopefully it's a CF lip. Don't want to bother with the hassle of wet CF wrapping again.

Kinda willing to bet it was made specifically for it as the width should be slightly longer on the oem C63 to match the fender. Of course, they could have just molded the top portion to fit the hood and fender while leaving the bottom portion alone. That'd make life much easier and opens up more options on what lip styles will be available....although I'd probably just stick with Euroteck.

Pics, Pics, Pics!

ok here are some pics i took today :excited:







rear needs spoiler and exaust system, not sure what exactly to do yet, doing some digging to see what are my options
car needs a drop i know but i donno if its a good idea, as u can see pavements are very high +speed bump where i live, ill fck the front for sure and that would be a real PITA to get a replacment

as for engine, its C200CDI 136 HP :cry:, all i know of is a chiptuning box that can get me to 170~HP, that all i know for now (if anyone know of some good performance mods, let me know)

still got more work to get it where i want it but its going great

:excited:

heres a pic of the "before" haha

blue00r6

Nice that looks sharp! Definitely needs a drop though.. you could go with something moderate like HR sport springs and bring it down to basically stock 'sport' model height

AZN Optics

Is the hood not closed all the way, or is it me, or camera angle.... but, that gap between the hood and the bumper between the grille and headlight seems pretty big to me.

blue00r6

Do you have any head-on pics?

-Reno-

hmm im looking now and youre right but its maybe by few mm

fine with me i guess, but you got some good eyes



le me post a front close up

Normandie4life
