The bottom lip on the front bumper and the AERO package C/F fins(winglets) are all options and sold separately. All the C/F parts for the B/S are EXTREMELY expensive and will NOT be on this car. Just to give you an idea the smallest C/F fin on the outside of the front bumper is $900 each. The next one down(fin) is $1400 each. So the two aero package fins are $2300 per side or $4600 for the four small C/F fins on the two sides of the BS front bumper. OUCH!!
The front lip was even more.
I'll keep you updated.

There's also a lower lip that's part of the aero package, but not the carbon package, and it's considerably less expensive than those winglets. Well, I guess it's all relative compared to the carbon stuff, which I knew better than to even check the prices of...
Still, it looks great, Keith! Can't wait to see how your guys tie it into the running boards.

I've run into some challenges duplicating the OEM BS parts. I'm not sure its going to happen right away. If you want the BS parts soon you may have to order them from your local dealer and get original BS OEM parts. I am still looking into it.
I am doing this now so everyone will know whether or not they are bolt on parts and they are for the most part. Some plastic pieces need to be trimmed and slightly modified for the front bumper to fit but its not difficult.
I believe Revozport and/or Stone Carbon will be making some BS parts that are similar to the originals.

Yes, they are all OEM parts and no they aren't cheap. Those prices look like full retail so you should be able to negotiate better pricing but thats up to you and your dealer.

I am still mystified at how dealers can get body panels for the Black Series to sell to customers with non black series cars. Doesn't AMG keep a tight rein on these parts so as to not diminish the cache of these special vehicles??

I am sure that Revozport or Stonecarbon or others will come out with a replica kit just like they did the F1 DTM bumper years ago.
I do love the look of the new BS and will not replicate it myself to sell. All my parts are OEM and will not be replicated so those with the true BS are still safe with me.
I originally bought just the two front fenders so I could get wider tires on the front for road racing. Then they didn't line up correctly and the body shop said it would be easier and look better if I could get the front bumper so I did. Then the side rocker panels don't look right .......................
Its a never ending project as most of you already know how a simple mod turns into a major mod.
I will keep you updated as we make progress. Still waiting on the new ram air hoods completion before painting it all and finishing the project.

Making over the coupe into the BS will be an easy fix. In fact, I'm surprised they redid the rear fenders when you can actually order the rear quarter panels which could have made the entire package MB OEM. The real challenge is the rear quarter panels and doors on the sedan as we all know. Its got to be a custom job.

Front bumper is finally getting done with the marker lights and headlight washer holes eliminated. The two rectangular holes are the inlet for the brake ducts and will have black mesh behind them to match the front bumper mesh.
Making progress!!
