Anyone know where I can get a carbon fiber hood that actually fits properly? I dont want that huge gap behind the grill that you get with the generic c/f hood (like I have on my CLK430). I want something that fits RIGHT to put on my CLK55.

Thats the same hood as me Ahmad but i dont think yours would have a big gap since you mold the amg and the carlsson .

I know its the same one you have. I have to look at yours again. Even with the stock AMG bumper on my CLK430, the gap is still apparent

ur tryna put it on the 55?

Not the hood from my CLK430. A c/f hood that fits like OEM... if i can ever find one

Hmm the closet I can think of is the VIS hoodie Ahmed, that doesn't fit? Well if that doesn't work then I think ebay has other branded CF hoods for our CLK but then again I dunno I'm not at that baller level yet like you pimps.

I have also heard the VIS hoods fit well. I found this on Ebay, but have not had a chance to follow up to see if these are available for the W208, I wouldn't mind picking up one, but don't want to be the one to try it first

Did you ever find a hood for your 55 which fits right?

i can get a hood from vis no problem...they have it in stock, i saw them at the factory. let me know and i will ask how much.
i did not get it because it is to raced out for me.

Didn't even try. Everyt iem I put together a group buy for custom ones noone wanted in.
How is fitment?

Ahmad wait until i get in town and lets take my hood of and try it on yours to see fitment since is a vis hood?

You also are going to need some hood pins because with all the power under your hood i think you will blow the hood open in a heartbeat
