Frisco, looks like it. Does your car have parktronics, cuz my guy said this shippemt was all brabus kits with parktronics. Well sorry if i did. But yeah, i just picked it up. The material on the new kits are Amazing. Such great quality and is extremely durable. I think they are using polyurithene now, which is great. Now i just need to see what sides i want to get. I have been debating either to use AMG or Lorinser in which i am more leaning towards Lorinser. I know many ppl like the clean look of AMG but, honestly, i like the aggressiveness of the Lorinser sides. I say a full lorinser kit on a clk when i was picking up the car, and wow it looks nice. Well yeah, hopefully i can get my car done soon with all the mod inside. Looks like the car needs to say in the shop for about 2 weeks, cuz they also need to make the full cat quad exhaust system for the car. Will post pics ASAP.

Yeah I ordered my bumpers back in August/September and have been hit with 4 separate delays in total (delivery on Nov 15, then Dec 15, then Jan 15, and now some unknown amount of time). Jay500 ordered his set sometime a couple weeks after me (but again, back sometime in Fall of last year) and has also been hit with all of these delays. To say the least, I am pretty disappointed in the way Brabus NA and their agents have handled Jay500's and my orders, because we've both been incredibly patient and understanding throughout this whole ordeal, and I can't even get the Brabus rep to return my correspondence for the last week and explain how they are going to rectify things. With this thread as perspective, it's not clear if Brabus was intentionally stringing us along and funneling parts to their 'real' customers, or if they are truly so disorganized and dysfunctional that they can't get their order list straight and see who's been waiting the longest.

I guess I must be the agent that Frisco is referring to. Thats why I said on my earlier post that I feel ashamed of myself. Both are my clients and both are not able to get their bodykits as promised. And now someone just jumped in front of the queue and bought the one with the Parktronics.

Frisco, you have forgotten to mention that someone has given you a too good to be true promise.

Very nice; for some reason I thought you had a white car. Black looks really hot - that's going to look incredible with the new bumpers.

With 18"s that extra 1" is perfect. Last one.
