I like their F1 Fenders, they are made of steel too. I emailed them for a quote and they said $2500.

Price seems fair, and you get the perfect fitment of the OEM fenders. The owner of the company is a benzworld.org member.

They use your oem fenders , then modify them. It would be nice if they had a core exchange program.

Did not registered at all well with me.
1. Why a 500? Like putting lipstick on a pig.
2. Body Work A++
3. LED just does not fit into the overall design of the front bumper. The mesh makes it worse.


Just my $ .02. Hope not to get beat up too bad here on my op.

m_berman, not trying to attack you here, but I'm getting tired of people buying up these used 55's for dirt cheap, then comming on mbworld acting like big ballers, then talking down to 500 owners.

If this applies to you, then all you have is a used up 55, which seems more like a pig with lipstick to me.

I didn't belive my comments would be understood the way I meant it when I wrote it.

I AM NOT TALKING DOWN TO ANY OWNER 500, 550, 55, OR 63. Maybe I'm guilty of using the wrong example and I apologize.

My thoughts are that if someone is to sink some $25k + into mods it should have been on a top of the line model such as the 55 or 63; not the base model.

BTW...I do put my money where my mouth is. I bought my 55 brand new and its MSRP was $107K+.

I love the Brabus front bumper, but the rest of it did't pull me in. I fell in love with the rear end and side skirts of the Lorinser kit. I also wanted fog lights, and Brabus did not have any in their bumper at the time. Still happy with Lorinser.

I think the daytime running led lights on the 2010 E class looks good. I might try something like that.

I'm in love with the brabus rocket front bumper for our CLS. Im curious if i were to just get the front bumper, would there be a big height difference with the stock side skirts (non AMG). Also i would like to use the LED lights from the 2010 E class that are in the bottom of the front bumper... then again.. nahhh i dunno about that!
