Carlsson or Brabus?

I'm thinking of putting either Carlsson RS kit or Brabus kit for my W209. Which one do you think it's better?

Brabus

Definately the Brabus Kit, only b/c the carlsson front bumper is only an add on and not a full bumper.

I think he is referring to the new RS kit, which is a full bumper. But I still favor the Brabus bodykit, I think it matches better with a CLK. Or maybe you can get the K8 front.

well...u can be like me

My car is getting the brabus front bumper as we speak....and I will be ordering the carlsson quad exhaust ( when I get feed back that is worth the money from others ) and get the Lorinser back bumper customized to fit the carlsson qaud exhuast. I don't like any kit as one, but piecing them together makes the car look good! IMO.

W209
I like the brabus front and the carlsson rear. some people like to mix kits, but i personally like to stick with one tuner. I know alot of people do not like the brabus rear because it looks too stock, but if you wanna do something that stands out, customize the kit.....

Thx for all of your reply guys. I'm still undecided so as to which kit to use now. hehe It seems that for RS kit I have to wait for a while b4 being able to get hold of them. As for Brabus kit, a friend of mine can get it in 3 days [of course a little more expensive ]. Anyways, anyone who would like to post their view/vote, don't be hesistant to do so. I really value your input
