I wondered if it was the VIS. I've been cautious about that one's quality since it is fiberglass. In your experience, how does the quality compare to say the OEM bumper.

My car is also black so thanks for posting those. Big help. In black the gap doesn't seem that noticeable in the pictures. Is it noticeable in person?

There is no way to compare to OEM. If you hit something with these fiberglass bumpers.. You can most likely call it a day!

Ive had 2 of them.. First one took a beat down with a cone that was sideways in middle of the freeway. Ripped right through the middle of the bumper.

2nd time around I decided to see if they could do some fab to fix the gap... Spent some extra $$

Long story short its still there... The gap is straight now instead of drooping in the middle. Since our cars are black you can somewhat get away with it but anyone who is into modding their cars will know immediately that the bumper doesn't fit right.

Anyways I couldnt stand the look of the OEM bumper anymore so I said hell with it and got the VIS for the second time. It looks much better in my opinion

I'm not sure that will improve performance in any way, but seems to be a good strategy.

Hi there I have just joined your forum, I am from a small town In Scotland called Hawick, I have just went through all of this thread and, I have been inspired, Here is a couple of pictures of my wee beastie. She is a standard Clk320 with the Amg bodykit on her but I love her, I hope you all like her to.

The triple black MY2003 CLK230 Cab parked next to the black w/black interior 2012 Honda Fit with the 2010 black w/tan interior and black ARE cap Toyota Tundra SR5 looming in the backgraound (the separate picture shows it much better). The Honda snuck into the carport while my wife's red Camry was away. Best Wishes--Carl

I ditched my chrome lip wheels and couldn't be happier with the replacements. Aggressive but classy. I think something like what I have one my car now would compliment the c63 style bumper on yours.

here's mine for reference:
