Bit too much IMO. I was thinking you should go with the replica AMG bumper for W204s so you won't have to change the hood/fenders. I think one other member had it installed and said it was good. Just forgot his name. (the one with the digi camo front lip and aggressive wheel set-ups).

Lol, dude too wannabe my butt. Look at the 4 exhaust tips on your car then . Just don't go throwing on any AMG badges or telling the girls in Temple City and Alhambra that it's an AMG in a sad attempt to get some

But yeah the Vizage kit has its ups and downs but I think that if you're only changing the front it'll look WAYYY out of place. Lol. It's like if Jay Leno slimmed down to a size 28 but his face stayed the same.

Depends how much you get from insurance I guess. Lol. Revozport has some side/rear skirt add ons/accents that I find to be quite nice. I think Boca Design makes em too. Maybe get those?

I hate how far those lower "fins" stick out...its too "blocky" Your pchop looks good but you would need to mod those fins to not stick out as much.

The back........no words. Yuck.

I concur +1

Mmm, it looks okay but I think you would really need the side skirts to make the front bumper work. With only $450 that seems...difficult

It's $714 for the AMG front bumper with foglights from RevoZport. Plus side about this kit though is that you don't need a new hood/fenders.

Honestly I'd just suggest sticking with a sport bumper or go for a wald or brabus bumper. The JP Vizage kit is unique in that it's the only body kit out there for luxury models, but if you just get the front bumper, it's going to look out of place as it's very aggressive up front, but you're mild in the center to rear. JP Vizage is mainly a JDM oriented company and this kit was one of their first forays into the euro segment, but it's fairly obvious in their execution that they're still heavily tilted towards their JDM style preferences.

If you really want something unique, I can put you in contact with the owners of Prior Design. They have a location in Torrance and they've been wanting work on my w204 to create a brand new kit.

yeah, Brabus is expensive at $1,155. Or you can always get a Frabus for a third of that price
