CF Diffuser and CLK 630 Front Bumper
Anyone ordered these? There is someone on this forum with similar mods. Not sure if these are the same parts or VIS copied them... I'm interested in purchasing the front bumper and wanted to know if anyone had any fitment issues.

Nobody has purchased from them for the w208 that I know of the white clk with the rear diffuser is custom made the front cover that was on vipclk320's car was also a custom job.People have stated that the rear diffuser will not be a good fit don't know who has tried it. As far as the front cover goes it is a aftermarket fiberglass bumper I really don't think the fitment will be good.

Sorry for the delay, doing alot of work on my car. The VIS cf diffuser looks flawless and fit perfect. I installed it myself and requires lots of bumper triming and 2 holes at the ends of diffuser where it thins out to a slight point. I used a special aerospace epoxy and glued it on, along with the studs at the ends like a mentioned. Very easy to install, but you need lots of finnese and patience for it to look flawless. I deal with a company that supplys aerospace with carbonfiber and the glues , and they said the quality is part is awesome.

NICE! Thanks for the pics I will deffiantly be ordering mine soon. So the only part you trimmed was around the exhaust cutouts? Did you not have any problems damaging the cf? How did you mount the diffuser? Also what exhaust do you have?

Thanks guys....yes you only need to cut the stock bumper around the exhaust tips, and on the corners of the cf difuser, they have studs moulded in so u have to drill a hole on each end. You need to take your time and make sure its centered. I used a special epoxy that once hardened its like weld, I bought it at a store that supplies cf, fiberglass etc... I brought the cf piece to them and they told me to use this specific epoxy, it cures in minutes!!! been driving for a year now and no problems.
