After contemplating over which type of front lip design to get for my W204, I've finally made up my mind to go again with PIECHA DESIGN since my previous experience with PIECHA, the QUADRO exhaust system, was great; after about two weeks waiting time, it arrived today:



The front lip is now in the shop for some carbon-fiber enhancement and I hope to get the final product installed soon; wish me luck!

Niceee! I think you're the first among the W204 forum to get the Piecha lip! I wish I could get that one too but sadly it costs a bit too much $$$ to get. Do tell how it turns out!

Nice,btw what kind of exhaust do you have on?

Jun0129

PIECHA QUADRO exhausts... Happy with the result so that kind of played a role in my decision making when I was evaluating on a new front lip

wanchu83

do you have it installed yet?

You don't have the ability to scan this into a cad program do you?

- I could potentially make a few of these at work (until i get caught or told otherwise)

AZN Optics

Looking forward to seeing this. Good choice.

Hell I would buy one.

wnunez89

very cool, cant wait to see it on

covance

pics soon!

wanchu83

if someone could make this for less I would buy it right away ( the real version one is well over 600 US dollar)

if i can get a CAD model I can have some made.

Unfortunately it's still in the shop for carbon fiber treatment... Anxiously awaiting for it to be ready so I can finally slap it on~~

I wouldn't want Mr. Piecha throwing the law books at me

covance

true that

Who's gonna tell?? I'll *tweak* the design and it'll be original. Oh well, regardless, I'm excited for pics with it on. are you color matching or doing black?

Originally, I was gonna go with a silver carbon-fiber finish to get a slight contrast at the lower front bumper area. But then I was told such silver finish gets dirty and turns yellow easily thus, I gave up on that idea.

Then I decided to go with black (not matte-black) carbon-fiber finish as I have black carbon-fiber rear diffuser installed; it can be thought of as an colour scheme extension to the front, like several forum members have done to their white W204.

I hope this turns out OK. If not, I might just go with the simple colour matching scheme...

I guess this is a problem worthing having, ha!

blue00r6

yeah, i'm sure the CF finish will look pretty good

Just got back from the shop, the lip has now been installed!

I took a few quick snaps with my iPhone:

- Before installation: Front lip with CF enhancement.
- Shots from the side to show how the lip blends in with the rest of the front bumper.

Personally, I'm really happy with the result as it adds a slight different touch to an already nice looking AMG sport front bumper. I will try to take more pics later on with a real camera.

I'm already planning on my next mod...

Looks good! Mannnn I want one. :[

chris.lee913

where can i get this lip and how much did you pay for it? thanks

covance

wow this is a lot more undertstated than the DCTMS one. CF job looks great!

blue00r6

yeah that looks really sharp, you should take some more pics at a lower angle, I'd like to see how tall it is, or how much vertical 'meat' it adds to that center section.
