C32 AMG front bumper lips?

Hey guys..

I know that it exists for the E-class AMG, the SL, SLK... well does anyone know of any carbon fiber front lips available for the C class models?

In my opinion, it is crazy that someone has not made an add-on for the AMG bumpers.

Anyone with any connections, hookups, please get this started.

Nobody offers CF lip for the C-class AMG bumpers. You can make your own but it will be pretty costly.

I wish there's one like the Brabus lip for the AMG kit on the SL.

Unless you come up with a matched rear wing solution, the front only spoiler lip will through off the front to rear downforce calculations and there will be too much downforce at the front end resulting in a lighter rear at high speeds and slower times. But for the street, who cares! I want want too Make it look just like the Carlsson or RENNtech for the SL. How about silver carbon fiber like the hood that was made?

There is carbon trunk lid spoilers out there for the W203 already.

I figure carbon trunk lid spoiler, carbon front lip, carbon headlight rings, carbon hood, change the grill, wheels, and cup kit and the car would look really mean.. Ecspecially on the black which I have. Anyways, this is what I am doing.

Set up a group buy. I'm in. The 2005 C230 Sport Sedan with the AMG bumpers, is the same front bumper as the C32 correct?

And you C55 guys... well, your just gonna have to get something going with the CLK guys

i'm about to custom fabricate one for my Brabus front bumper. like the small under splitter on the CLK K8 or EV12 demo cars. and the 2005 spoiler on the way so hopefully it will match subtley. getting it made right after my interior trim is done, and after having wheels on.

i am not sure if i am going to make it out of pure carbon fiber. that might be too expensive. my car is so low now, i am scared to scratch the Brabus front. so i have this idea of custom fabricating one out of plastic, then having it carbon fiber wrapped. so i won't be so scared in hitting a plastic / carbon-wrapped one. hmm...black or silver carbon? silver carbon would match my silver carbon interior coming soon, but i am thinking it might be unclean on the outside but sorry, i don't think my custom mold will fit the AMG bumpers.

I'd be very interested in a front lip spoiler, too. I like the one on the SL that FrankW posted.

Already have one on my car, but it's for the Brabus bumper only. For the amg bumper it's going to be tricky because the bottom is not flat and has many curved surfaces, whereas my bumper is flat at the bottom so it was relatively easy to fab my cf lip.

Don't expect it to be cheap, we are looking at least 600-1k for a GOOD cf weave + quality. I spent 750 for mine, I think BrabusCLK04 spent around the same.

Any of you guys have any pics of the Brabus bumpers with the lips. I am assuming that the lips were custom 1-off items, because i have not seen them for sale anywhere.

Bump, we have to get some activity here.. Anyone ever see how many options are out for the 3 series/M3.. we just need one.
