Anyone done recent business with this company?

I'm starting to look around for a front lip for my 350. I have heard mention of this company before, but was wondering if they sell quality stuff. the price seems right.

I was able to pick up my euroteck lip for $300 brand new off of another member, but if a hadn't, I would have probably gone with JL.

You got a deal on that. I'm going to watch a bit for something. But really the JL is probably as good a deal around.

I'm actually getting better at laying fiberglass lately, carbon fiber is the same principle with way less room for error haha. Only thing I've made was a pencil holder for my desk at work though so I wouln't get the group buy process too far along just yet lol

Vacuum is the way to go for CF. More practical for multiple pieces.

A Vac system wuld be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. I've seen guys make their own small scale ones for doing headlight retro-fits and whatnot. There's not much to it, but I couldn't justify it taking up that much space in the shop lol.

I was looking into this starter kit. Doesn't look like it will take up much room.

Man it would be very much appreciated a few close up shots. Or just a good front shot. I have seen them on the 500, 550's with the difference bumpers, but not on a 350.

anybody with more information on this lip? I was curious about this product for my CL55 as well....but I was afraid it would come looking like a cheap knock-off.

anybody got some pictures besides the one they post on their website?

I have asked Clkboi to post some pics. He has one on his 350. Said the fit was good.

What does the lip do, unless you are on the track?

ok took some quick pic at work. Its freaking raining out here.

Tiny little gaps in certain areas as you can see but you cant notice unless you stare.
Overall i am very happy with it and i believe it made a major change on the front look.

I would totally recommend it for the 350 since its not as aggressive as the AMG ones.
