Ask CLKAL, I'm sure he'll refer you to someone. :o

Okay, that was a low blow. Sorry I just couldn't pass it up. Carry on...

If someone in Singapore decides to keep your money and not send you anything, you are SOL.

Correct about someone taking your money. The only reason I ordered for Felix was the good things everyone said about him. Hopefully he comes thru on his end. The same could happen if you buy items off e-bay or other internet places. I ordered parts from places in Cali and nevered received them.

Sorry I cant help. I will say that in the next couple of months, I will be putting out a new fit for the 98-02 CLK's that will have similar front end as 03-04's (SL type). When I have it done I will post how it looks and how to get them for your rides!

Monkichi,
So sorry about you damage kit but I'm glad it wasn't from Felix. Hopefully my kit will be better. If not, at lease I didn't pay as much as you.

I picked up a kit for my friend from Felix and it came in good condition. I had we had to do some modifications on the side pieces, but it worked fine. One word of advise, this are from a mold and need some fine finishing work to smoothen it out and give more definition to the whole kit. Take your time and prep the kit properly and it will look tight. I got the fiberglass version, but was told he is working on a polyprop version. I like the fiberglass, easier to fix if damaged, but polyprop is stronger.

I paid @$1000.00 which included: front, rear, 2 sides,foglights,rear defusser and shipping. I don't think thats a bad price. I feel better & better every time I hear good things about Felix.

$1000 for the whole thing and that includes the foglight ? Damnnn that's a good price I guess. Maybe I just got didin't research enough. Already bought a new one though. The reiger bodykit which looks allright for me. But the carlsson is better.

I haven't bring it to a bodykit because the thing is too big to bring in. Don't want to waste money on transport again. I got the estimate which will cost about another $1000+++ not sure the exact price will be once he seen how bad it is. As for the seller, of course he said I don't know. Its not my fault. I just got rejected from the claims I made to fedex too. Lost all money then.
