The ones that move me
Jerry at FMM has said that the lip spoilers they sell now are urethane rather than fiberglass, as before. These are suppose to fit much better.
Let us know how it turns out

i will say the guy at FMM was incredibly professional and I think he carries good stuff. i just think certain items need to be the real deal.

i'm waiting for my OEM C55 spoiler and i'll post pictures as soon as i get it.

hope i'm not wasting money just to get the right fit.

i'm also putting my sirius radio in tomorrow. i'll post pictures of the antenna that i had put in. it's painted 040 black to match the car and I think it looks pretty good.

My rear spoiler is seperating from the hood on both sides. Not much, somewhere b/w 1/8 and 1/16th inch. I notice it 'cause I'm ****. Kinda pisses me off. I've talked to others that have had this happen as well. Dealer tells me they'll re-stick it when I bring it in for it's first service, but will prolly seperate again eventually.....said it's not all that uncommon.

I'll assume you meant trunk... Does it look like someone tried to rip it off? A friend has the C55 OEM spoiler on a C230 and it is tightly on there.

No.......if someone tried to rip it off, I think it would be in MUCH worse shape. Oh, and yes, I meant trunk.

Yup, it's OEM factory installed. I drove it back to the dealer the day after I noticed it, and they told me they'd need the car for at least a day to remove/clean/re-glue/cure, that's why I'm just waiting for my first sched service......

Just spoke to a service advisor and received the quote around $700.
$398 for the spoiler (listed on mbusa.com), possibly $175 to have it painted by a local body shop, and $135 to intall it.

painting the spoiler is less than a $100 and it's probably like $20 or less for them to install it unless you glue it which they'll charge you for the glue.
