first off, the FIBERGLASS in the title gives is all away. Fiberglass fits like ***** and the paint cracks off of it too easily.
this is probably a moot point, but , damn...that kit looks like a$$....

2000 CLK 3.2
This is what they tried to do but failed horribly:

The only company that sells a nice looking wide body kit is Renntech in Florida. Their kit has smooth lines and is tastefully sporty. I toyed with the idea to widen my rear end only right before I bought my first 3 pc wheels about 2 years ago but they wouldn't just give me the rear end parts they wanted me to buy the whole kit and the kit was over $10,000. I wanted to get a custom 12" wide rear wheel set up with a 6" lip. It's probably just better to have a body shop weld some rear fender flare quater panels on to acheive a nice smooth wide body look.

You really like the lunch box transfomer look ha. To boxy for me...but I think the only way it would look right is if they had some better wheels and if the wheels were at least flush with the kit. Thay kit needs a 13" wide wheel with like a zer0mm offset to make it really come out to the edge of the fenders cuz it looks incomplete.

That ebay kit though isn't as nice. I like the DTM look but the ebay one looks lumpy?

I dont sell bumpers, I just organized a group buy with Felix at EuroPassion.
Those lips you mentioned are for the 320 bumpers.
I really want a wide body clk but havent seen any I liked.
