Carlsson front spolier lip arrived

Just got my Carlsson front lip today. It is designed for W209 AMG front bumper (which is exactly the same part except for the foglights) and it is called Front spolier lip RS. Too bad it is made of Fibreglass though. I tried to line up with my bumper and it fitted perfectly. It looks better in person and more aggressive than looking at the CLK picture at the Carlsson website. Painted and installed picture will be posted later this week as I am bring my car to the body shop later. This might be a front lip solution some C55 owners looking for

Does that also mean that it will fit on a C32's front bumper?
If that is the case, can I trouble you to PM me where to buy and how much.
Thanks a bunch!

I think the C32 has a different front end than the C55 which is why he got the W209 version.

I can get Carlsson parts, just shoot me a PM. There is a Carlsson front spoiler lip for the C32 avaliable.

From my knowledge, Carlsson does not make any lip spolier for the W203 AMG bumper. They only make full bumper replacement.

You're all right.
There are three offerings from Carlsson right now.

Carlsson RS Front Spoiler

That is the most expensive, because you also have to buy fog lamps with the spoiler.

Carlsson Front Lip for Avantgarde


Carlsson Front Lip for Class / Elegence

Good choice, it looks very nice. I was the importer of Carlsson for some years and have only good experience with the quality.
You should visit their shop in Germany if you have the possibility, its awsome.

But I agree it is strange they still use fiberglass, and not the PUR-RIM material most other high end supplier use.

Lip looks hot! Neal, who can match the lip to the car color? Iridium Silver? SLK55 of course*

awhk, nice car! My SLK's rear lights are smoked similar to yours! keep it up!

Well, i decided i am going to make a complete replica of the Carlsson lip in full CF. We are so backed up now, with orders and the CF hoods. That i will be honest and say the lip will be about 1-2 months away. We are also going to proably modify that lip for the C32/C230SS.
