Hey Adam, I saw the Rocket bumper in person today, Brabus in Newport Beach had one a CLS 500, it looked very nice, it will be moved to Fletcher in a day or so. I will post some more pics when I get home.

$2600 for just a grill?????? 
For that it should include the front and rear bumpers, paint and installation!!! I'm in the wrong business!

Well, Brabus never planned in manufacturing the grille separately. Due to demand it seems, Brabus decided to manufacture the grille alone. Price wise, the final figure has yet to be finalized. But i will double check with CEC/Brabus today.

For many of us members, $2,600 would be hard to justify for a performance part that nets little or no real HP gains. Just for a grille, that is ludicrous. Now i understand that CF has gone way up since Boeing and Airbus began buying so much of it, but Brabus really must think we have nothing better to spend our money on.

What is out there that is similar in style, but not cf? What are the cost of those?

..........I agree with you completely. Unfortunately, there are those who will buy an item that nets little or no HP, just to be able so say it is a Brabus product. For reasons that are not totally clear, there is a lot of Hero worshippin of Brabus. Great for the company but very bad for the worshippers pocket book. These aftermarket companies do not own manufacturing plants. They actually don't make these products. They simply out source then to another company. Kleemann, Brabus, Renntech etc don't acyually manufacture these trinklets themselves. Makes it all the more ridiculous for those that buy these things just for the purpose of hero worshipping the company.
