Side Panels.

Hello,

I've had a 99 CLK for as long as the 99s been out for, and since the new CLKs are coming out (and im not planning on selling mine), I want to change its look a little bit.

I was wondering what is the easiest way to find the CLK Side panels for the 98-99 CLK320? Fortunately I have a black CLK, so it doesnt really show, but the car looks much better with it. I know a person that was able to get it off some guy that was getting his bodykit done in CECwheels here in LA, he said he was going to throw them out otherwise..

Any suggestions? what should I do?
Should I come up with a finders fee?

I have a set from a 98. It is yours if you want them. I am in San Francisco. Just to make sure, are you talking about the side skirts?
I installed a body kit so therefore, I have a clear pair of non-AMG side skirts that you can have for free.

That sounds great LamboMan.

I've messaged (PM) you asking if we're talking about the same thing since you indicated that you have a set from 98, and as far as I know the 98 and 99(mine) dont come with any kind of side panels (its all black)..

Thanks

SleepStack,

any idea how the AMG sideskirts will look on a 99 CLK? (you only have the two side skirts?)
I have a black car too, and I assume yours is black also?

thanks

I think he still has the complete AMG kit. You only mentioned that you were looking for side skirts, which is I'm pretty sure why he only mentioned the side skirts in his reply.

Thanks for the Clarification Mach430.

I like the look of the clean CLK320 much better, only if it wasnt for the black part all around the car. I dont want my 320 to be a fake 430.

Nobody out there has the side clip on plastic things that go all around the 98-99 CLK320s to make them look updated??

Just thought i should ask one more time

Nah don't worry, your 320 won't be a fake 430 because as model year 2002 MB offers the sport pkg for the 320 which made the car look exactly like the CLK430 (2000-2001).
