Rieger Front Lip?? What do ya' think??
I will be lowering my car about 1.5in over the winter and having some things color matched. Wiper blades, door handels, grill, and front bumper due to some dings. I found this Rieger front lip on line for around $250ish if I remember correctly.
Since I'm having the bumber removed and repainted it would be wise to do the front lip.
Basically I was wondering what you guys think about the peice and also if any of you know a reason it won't fit as it's for the regular W202. The AMG bumpers are different. I'm kinda on the fence with this piece.....
A. kinday DTM looking from the front..
..?
B. Maybe kinda ricey...
.?

IMO all of riegers bodykits, lips, etc are a little too over the top for me, and maybe a little on the ricey side.. I know for a fact that for the CLK rieger lips will not fit the AMG bumpers and I imagine its the same for a 202. If you are going to go with the kit I would agree with lnkprksoldier and get the sides and the rear because the front lip is way too low and agressive for the stock sides and rear.. Good luck

1 quick question if the rieger kit wont fit on a regular amg bumper (front and rear) how would you make it fit? Do you need to buy differents bumpers and then get the kit? 
Do you need to buy differents bumpers and then get the kit?

Agree w/sicrx65...it's a great way to make a nice C43 look ricey as hell, akin to a high school punk owning a Mustang....
