If you're looking for the OEM spoiler, go to the dealer 
It will fit your w203 and look great.
If you are looking for a cheaper alternative, go look on ebay. You'll get what you pay for.

I had a FMM version C55 spoiler before. It is not 100% fit, but all you need a strong tape, place it correcting, and hold it in place for few hours, then everything is fine.
But now I took it off and put on a OEM C55 spoiler. It fit likes gloves, and looks better IMO (OEM one has sharper corners and perfectly cover the surrounding of center brake light)

I have one, factory fits and looks best always.
The tape on the C55 wing is good, just peel it off, lign it up and stick it on.
It might take a couple trys, just dont press it down to hard. (you can get it off pretty easy with a plastic bondo knife and a little heat from a hairdryer)
I would wax the bumper before you try..

sold on the OEM
I'm getting the dealer C55. I want it to fit perfectly, and I'll pay the extra price to do so. do they come painted? so we've got to get these through the dealer?
Can we group buy from a dealership? if so i'll contact my dealership tomorrow. if i can get a better deal buying 4-5 of them, then i will. not sure the deal would offset the shipping however.
any ideas? I'll contact my dealership tomorrow and find out what options they might provide.

ok guys, i priced the OEM C55 spoiler. they sell it for 585 painted at my dealer. he can have it in 3-4 days. he said he'd knock off 10% for a group buy. not sure if the shipping might not offset that deal if i got the spoilers and shipped them out. let me know if any of you are interested. I'm ordering today.

That $585 is pretty pricey, but if it's a perfect fit and true-blue Mercedes I think it's worth it.
That said, I'm going to wait for you to complete the mod and see pics before I jump in.
Thanks for taking the plunge bro!

here's the skinny on the FMM spoilers. the top one is closest to the C55 the next down is more like the c-class accessories spoiler offered from MB. and the third is just plain different.
the top one, so i've been told is just like the C55 OEM spoiler, but the fit is not quite as good. I chose the C55 OEM because i'm obsessed with perfection. but i've been told the FMM C55 is pretty nice.
