Euro Impact Strips for the C55

I want them! Would anyone know if the CLK500/55 are the same? they look to be identical.

If they look identical, then you are out of luck because there are no euro strips for the CLK. It is actually a one-piece construction, the strip is PART of the bumper!!

Are u serious? The W209 CLK? I know the W208 CLK430/55 were like that. But look at this, it looks like that whole strip can be replaced on the CLK. You are saying that it does not come out? it just looks it?

Yes it is a one-piece constructed directly into the bumper. You can paint the reflector but cannot remove the strip because the reflector is actually cut out into the bumper.

Yeah, the strip LOOKS to be a separate piece on the CLK, but it isnt. Take at REAL CLOSE look at your car and you'll know.

Thanks for your help. Learn something new everyday i guess.
