Nope, clk63 has fins on the sides not openings. I think the bumper was only available from the AMG performance studio.

Aren't the fins removable? I thought they were...or is it the black series?

I think the black series' bumper fins are removable, clk63 has them molded in. Check it out.

In my opinion, the "Performance Package" that was available in the German market from AMG Manufaktur (now AMG Performance Studio) was the PERFECT balance of aggressiveness and elegance. You can see in the pics below that it had the front bumper of the F1 Medical Car, carbon fibre rear trunk lip spoiler, and the bigger exhaust tips. Back in 2007, I was ready to spend big bucks to try to get the front bumper of the "Performance Package". Unfortunately, it was not possible, as AMG did not allow that bumper part to be exported out of Germany.

I LOVE this bumper on the C55, way more than the CLK63 bumper that some members have added to their cars.

As I've been quoted already above, that bumper was available from AMG Manufaktur as an option for customers in Germany only. It was part of the "Performance Package" for the C55.

That video posted is of the C55 AMG Racing Taxi, which has all the Performance Package upgrades (with some additional others too), similar to the current C63 Racing Taxi.

I actually tried to get that bumper for my car a few years ago, but couldn't.

I'm actually not a fan of the CLK63 vents. I actually would love to get the facelift CLK bumper that looks similar but without the vents.
