New Kit in Polyurathane!

Q Workz Master Creations is making a new for my wife’s CLK and says in the next 3-4 weeks it will be available. The kit is the original Lorinser kit from the S Class but for the CLK. I’m not good with Photoshop so if anyone wants to take a shot at putting the below kit on a clk id appreciate it. My wife wants to see how it will look. I don’t know the retail price on the kit but I know ill be the first of my knowledge with the kit on the car.

they are giving me the kit for 50% below retail since they are using our car to test fit. Retail will be $3999 and ive only paid $1000 so far. I pay the rest when i pick up the car.

The stock bumper is being chopped up and the new bumper is being molded onto the car.

Hmm.... how can others purchase a kit if they are molding the kit to your Stock AMG bumpers? Are they then going to remake a mold from the finished product?

Thanks,
Rob
