question about CLK430coupe
i just recently bought a CLK430 AMG Coupe and i was wondering one thing if u look at the car from the front between the foglights it looks like there is something missing there u can see right through, ive looked at other cars such as on ebay and noticed some of them have a bar there and some dont.
my question is, is there supposed to be a bar there and if so where would i get one from, because it just doesnt look right to me.
thnx
Zak

That bar is a trim strip for the airdam. If you bump a parking stop or a curb it is extremely easy to jar it loose enough to fall off. If the vertical bars that it mounts to aren't cracked, the new one can be zip-tied with small ties to prevent loosing it again. Tough break, it's an expensive misfortune.

The same happened to me
I bought my CLK about 6 months ago. When I took it to the dealer, he told me some CLKs were designed like that. Yeah right...
I need a new one too. If anyone has any idea of the part number or where I can get one at a reasonable price, that would be great.

ok but the weird thing is it doesnt look like there was one ever at all because nothing is broken or cracked is it true that some did not come with them>?

"Splitter"
that part is called a "splitter". email any of the firms on ebay that sell CLK bumpers...many of them have them for sale and sell them separately (not on Ebay - I'm not sure why)...that's where I got mine for a little over $100.
