Brabus Europe and Brabus USA

I'm just wondering whether there are any differences between Brabus products ordered from Europe and Brabus product in USA for US cars. Example: exhaust or suspension?

The parts are basically the same. You cannot order Brabus parts directly from Brabus Germany because they wont sell them to you. They will instruct you to buy from Brabus NA or through their dealers.

However, if you know someone from Germany who can buy for you directly from Germany, you can do that. But prepared to pay a lot on duties, taxes and shipping.

I've noticed brabus NA is a bit more lenient than one might expect, you can essentially order anything you've seen on a brabus show car and not have any restrictions like AMG and their quad exhaust system or the safety car front bumper.

The Brabus NA guys that I've dealt with have about the worst customer service and focus that I've ever experienced.

there are not duties and taxes when importing certain car parts from outside. some car parts are a tax free category in US customs.
