Fai he didnt buy new fogs. He is replacing his plastic parts under the bumper ( the one you vinyled black) with a mesh grille/ Similar to the AMG body.
Same thing as the car on your sig.

Unfortunately for him and for me the shop didnt find a way to cover the fogs as well. sux

08CLK350 how about cutting enough of the plastic just to allow the grille to go through?
I am saying putting the grille on top of the fogs. Not sure where the clips that hold it are though

lol, wasn't it a few basic mods? I have never received my car when promised. I always end up waiting longer. By now I expect it. Sucks that your ETA has tripled.

None fast enough!
08clk350,

I am sorry it has taken a long time. We have spoken with you on the delays at least 3 times a week since the issues came up. You know what the problems have been. You are also being given an extremely fair price on all of this work.

If you have issues, please communicate them with us directly, we are always here. As I posted, you speak to one of my customer service reps at least three times a week.

Thanks
Brad

wow someone beat wes to the punch? j/k

clkboi - i got the car back and i will have pictures posted soon.

the mesh grill is custom fitted, but only the center part. they could not do anything where the fogs are because the fogs are supported by the housing behind the plastic piece as seen on the picture you posted above.

thanks dr npz for the find...

Nope, no picture of the item. Yes, OEM and half the price. It's awesome.

i was planning on telling the dealership they sold me the car without them and complain....you think its worth it?
