FS: Carlsson RS Front Bumper w208 clk430/55/320
UP for sale is my carlsson rs front bumper. Serveral great point to hilight are:
No reinforcement bar fitment issue - means no shaving down your reinforcement bar, with other kits you do.
Already fitted for the w208 - means no more expensive labor in getting it to fit, which is a huge cost savings
There is a box behind the fog lights so that you can mount the fog lights rite - new kits have no mounting point for fog lights.
Only thing is, fix the stress cracks, re-prep and paint, and good as new again.
Local buyer prefered. Open to offers, looking for $400. I am in socal, and occasionally drive up so Norcal, so email me if interested or pm.
THanks for looking
George
i will post more pics when i get my car back, for now take a look as these

Does this include the fogs also? If so then how much would it be to ship US postal to 09063 area code. Let me get first dibs on this please.
How bad are the stress cracks? I need it painted black so will just painting it get it right or does it need to be sanded down? Do you know of a shop that can give you a good dealto fix it up and paint it black for me?
I drive a black 2000 CLK430 with the AMG kit so this would be perfect. I am in the military and have been for the past 14 years and I am located in Germany right now and would love to be able to mount a german plate in the front.
Well man let me know thanks!!

as you can see there is a lil crack on the driver side, and the corners are scraped up, which is common with these kit, esp since i got this from bruce and his clk was slammed.
so fix:
1. scrapes on corners
2. lil crack <1cm
3. fill in rock chips and sand and paint

I still have it, in no rush, so just let me know when you want it, it fit soo much better than my new kit, after a month with the new kit, the corners cracked becuase the new bumper is flared soo much and you need to bend it quite a bit to get it to be flush with the fender, so this kit fits soo much better than europassion's rs kit. so let me know when you get it and we will go from there.
and be careful, Jimmy Rianto, AKA frappe or under a new name is trying to sell his old rs kit, but he already ripped me off and came under a new name to try and sell his bumper again a few months back, so be aware.

yup, but i dont want to deliver it for $400, not worth it to me, also no offers for less than $400, so the price is firm. Too many pple dont know about these bumpers and how much they cost to get them fitted to the car, and how long it takes if you want to order on from felix, so trust me this is a great deal already....if i dont get my price, it will remain my back up kit in the garage...
