Hello everyone, I am a new member here in the forums with a black 2001 CLK 430. Unfortunately, i have a crack on the bottom of my front bumper and I want to replace it ASAP. I was looking on eBay when I found a Carlsson style front bumper. I just wanted to get some input on this certain kit before I jump the gun and buy it. Do you guys think its a fair price? Or is it good material?

Thanks in advance,
Randy

Don't do it. A few guys on here bought the one on ebay and it has very bad fitment. Do and search and you will see.

I can see fitment issues in the picture already!! Look around the headlights where the lines are supposed to be even with the hood....it doesnt line up properly...it could just be the angle of the photo???!!

Personally I think you would be better off buying the one that is in the classifieds since it has already been fitted properly and prepped. The only thing you will have to do is send it to get painted unless your car is also white.

Good luck in your search..it took me a while to find a Felix bumper but it was well worth the wait.

Thanks for the advice guys. I might as well just wait for a nice felix bumper to pass my way. I looked at the picture a little bit more carefully and realized that it doesn't fit that great. Btw, Greg your bumper came out nice, im hoping mine comes out that nice!
