Thanks, Meng! I will definitely update this thread with detailed pics 
edit: Just out of curiosity, is there any advantage to buying black out side markers / front grill vs getting them tinted / powder coated? guy at the shop also suggested a light tint to the tail lights..I have seen pics of this on c63's...some look good, some are a bit too dark I think..

2 different versions of mode carbon's carbon fiber front lip for 2012?
In Perry's car (pcho) there is a small strip on the top that seems to cover a 1/4 inch of the grill:
In Brooklyn's car, there is no small strip at the top:
Does anybody else see this?
Which version is the current version?

^^ I think they are the same.. Pcho pics are a bit photoshopped (lighting change) that's why it looks different.
Derek, don't bother painting the sidemarkers or tinting them. Smoked markers are too cheap on eBay & looks better in my opinion. As for the front grill, I painted mine & it's very durable. U can wrap it too, but more prone to rock chips.

yes, Meng has it right. I had to go back and check my mode carbon lip as I was a bit confused for a sec. just an optical illusion in perry's above pic...at first it looks like the top of the lip extends vertically, but is really extended horizontally back
btw, thanks for the advice Meng

Both cars are outfitted with the same piece, as there is just one version of the C63 Coupe Front Lip. It may look slightly different due to the angle/lighting.

Quote please!
Hi Nicholas,
Can I please have a quote to 6153, Perth, Western Australia, Australia for a full front lip and some photos.
Buttnekid, would you also be able to send me a PM with the price and a couple of photos of your product?

However little was done to to the photo because I used 3 studio lights to take it. Took me 3/4's of an hour to set it up
, i.e. getting the stands, cables and soft boxes from my studio. It was a real pain Perry

Hi Meng, thanks for the explanation and you are correct about the lighting. The lighting of second shot doesn't show the 1/4 inch strip. The strip extends across the entire lip and that is the same as the OEM.
