CKS Performance out of the UK offers one: https://www.cksperformance.com/produ...2c82dd46&_ss=r

I ordered this exact item for my 2017 c63s, and was delivered today. Have not fit it yet but everything looks perfect.

Why not simply wrapping it?

I looked into wrapping, but the shops I spoke with didn't seem very confident in it coming out that well (maybe they aren't that experienced or just didn't want to take it on). I also looked into having the factory bar painted, but seemed to be as/more costly than just buying a new one.

if you find a decent wrap guy its not that hard. Mine is wrapped and never had an issue and can't distinguish from paint or replacement.

If you can find someone to paint it I'd just go that route. Now if you're installing it yourself then that's different. A shop is going to charge a good amount to remove the front bumper, a painter may do it for less.

Same here, 2 shops I went to made it sound like an extremely difficult job.
