Hello and Welcome to the forum. A few of us on here have changed our bumpers. Best place would be eBay for some Used AMG bumpers. Then you could get the CF lip. Power wise there isn't too much for the 320. What kind of wheels did you get?

You have to post up some pics of the wheels.

I didnt know that. Any way to get a similiar bumper with vents on our clk's. the black series will be too wide and i dont got the money to do a full wide body conversion.

They advertise it with a picture and ask for $399, but to actually get what the picture shows - cough up $1,029 + $120 shipping.

I like it but that's a lot of scratch.

i would try for a used AMG bumper.

however, it is possible to put a front lip onto a 320. it has been done before.

i wouldnt bother with the power mods unless your willing to spend cash.
i would rather invest my money in suspension, audio, and wheels only because the power modding scene for the 320 is non existent not to mention, the gains are little to none.

The BR-S is styled after the Brabus part. In regards to your fitment question, we stand behind every one of our parts. If you want personal experience, LukeGeezy has our Morello kit and loves it.

As far as power improvements, the only substantial upgrade that comes to mind is a KLEEMAN S/C kit for the M112 V6. The cost of the blower itself, plus shipping, plus installation labor will run you.....gulp...... roughly $10 G's.
