yea the seller request for the photos to show that it doesnt fit right. So today im going to the bodyshop and take the photos, send it to the seller. I bought this cf lip from ebay cause the description says that it will fit 03-05 non amg body. so i think i will just buy the one for clk500 and do mbenz' route

no not from him but any AMG lip should work. Again, the fitment is 8/10. Dont expect like 100% perfect fits. All i can say is it wont look bad at all.

I don't know if I have seen a non CF lip for sale. You could always paint it.

The lip will look black until you get close. If you're going to paint it black, you might as well leave it CF.

will post the picts this evening

anyway i encounter another problem regarding the dual exhaust. I went to a exhaust shop this morning and they said that it is too dangerous to put the second pipe on the right side (near the spare wheel) because the pipe gonna be too near to the fuel tank, so he is scared of the heat. im not planning to remove the spare wheel thing, i just planning to add another pipe and instal it together with the Y pipe. Do you guys have any suggestion :/

There are thousand ways to do this but these two below are an example, the second pic is my 320. Or you can cut out the second cats and go two pipes from there to the tips.






Edit: I still like the tips on my 320. The quality is geat.
