planning on getting these bumpers if i cant find anything else for around this price. any help would be awesome. thanks

 

it would be only ideal if they fit right off the bat. if it didnt, your looking at more hours for your body specialist to get it to fit. although you might get lucky and have it fit from the start. its your car but sorona or whatever the company is called is like extreme dimensions. **** is supposed to fit but everyone runs into a fitment problem. but hey, if it fits, more power to you

 

That clk63 rear bumper doesn't look right. The exhaust cutouts are not far enough to the outside. It looks like a modified 500/550 rear bumper - which the mold is probably based off of. You might as well look for a used oem bumper which would fit better, and cut the other side for your exhaust.

 

Like everybody else says, you're probably going to run into fitment issues. But It's your dime. Better to get a used one. I'm pretty sure the front bumper is a mold off a 55 and they just added the vents on the side. I believe Advans had this bumper for a bit on his C55

 

yeah, i might go with an oem rear bumper then, thanks for the input. another member just posted pics of his car with the front bumper so im still deciding on that.

 

thanks for the input, any idea on how the quad exhaust will setup? from what ive seen on this forum your the guy to go for part #s lol. and where did you get that front hood emblem? im jealous

 

Yea, there are a few ways to go about the quad exhaust. Here is a link https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...-question.html. I didn't change the emblem. I used some tint film I had left over from tinting my tail lights. Came out ok, I was distracted while using the heat gun and burned it a bit. I will be doing it over.

 

did you take off the emblem and then use the tint film? or just while it was on the car. if you took it off how do you take it off? On my dady 98' S500 there was a way to take it off but i cant seem to take it off the clk. and btw sweet brembo's!!! we just put wilwood's on my cousins 67 fastback that were doing the eleanor setup on.

 

lowpost where did u get that brabus bumper from? how much did it run you?? if you dont mind me asking.

 

I took it off and then tinted it. It's a smoked film so you could still see detail in the emblem. Believe it or not I just used my fingernail and pulled it off..lol..You could use some fishing line, wrap it around and pull it off. Yea, the Brembos are great! Stop on a dime. I wouldn't mind some pics of that fastback. That's one beeeautiful machine!

 

 

the pictures go in order from when my cousin first bought it, bullit clone all original from the engine to the paint to the whole interior even the damn stereo. he had it for like a month and a half and then we took it all apart and the pictures from the shop are of just the shell. The bodykit is all molded so the car is one piece and then was painted the original eleanor colors. pepper grey with black stripes.

 

Nice progress! Looking forward to some finished pics

 

i thought that bumper didn't have a spot for your headlight washers

 

I dont think this bumper does i have to call the company and ask i guess
