Jbenz99 it does look alil off on the drivers side, but with paint it may look differant. Why did you get that one and who did you get it from? When you get it back from your friend post some pictures please. Im looking for a new bumper. I was looking at the Sarona lorinser rep. but cannt really find any good reviews about it.

@Williams707 is that why you have the chrome headlight trim? Your car is hard.

There is a significant difference in the way the bumper looks in both links you posted. In the first link to their site, you could see in the pics how the grille hangs over the bumper and doesn't sit flush. If you look at the photoshopped pics in the thread link, it looks much more flush.

CLK W208
well i wouldnt look at the piture with the white car at all you can tell thats not even a real car its just sketching job. and not an accurate one either because in the clk w208 the front brakes aren't trailing) they are leading and this sketch job is a done very badly. lol. but in another note i really like the honeycomb plastic mesh that they used for the grilles, does anyne know where you can purchase the honeycomb mesh grilles like the one benz usesfor the bottom grilles?

Not sure about a whole mesh piece, but you could try contacting that company and see if they could do anything for you.

jbenz99, if your bodyshop can get it flushed on like in the first 'pic', it's going to look fantastic. Looking forward to some close up pics of the finished product.
