Never seen one for a C43. The one I priced out for the E430 was pretty darn expensive - although no more so than the RENNtech, but for my wife's car I wasn't gonna go that deep into my pockets.

Did you ever get your engine cover? I read this thread quickly during break so forgive me if I missed something.

Love the CF interior. Any plans on a CF gauge panel to go where the stock phone controls are? Need to take that out and put something there.

Yes, they are underneath the factory Climate Control. The phones don't work anymore and are just wasted space right now. A nice triple gauge pod would be cool.

Are those carbon fiber b piller covers there in your picture?

I can overlay pretty much everything in CF, your choice.

The pieces in the picture that look like b-pillars are actually the wood door trim.

that looks good, nice match on the renntech box. sometimes the hues look off, but it doesn't appear to be in this case.

Almost forgot about this. Here's a pic of the underside of the engine cover and another of the top side.

So it should fit my E55? Do you have some in stock? Is it still $350.00 plus shipping. How much to 91307 zip?

CF parts

Hello Lensolo,

Any chance you can make a CF front lip for my 1999 E55. Similar to the attached picture. And How much? Nobody mass produces any more. I am still intrested in the CF engine cover. Still deciding.
