Questions about bodykit
Can someone with or that have seen the brabus or carlsson bodykit in person tell me whether the rear bumper sits lower than the AMG one?
It seems the AMG rear bumper slants up quite a bit and sits high at the rear. I just want to know whether changing to Brabus or Carlsson bodykit would help make the car look lower overall. Right now my front is quite low but the rear sits kinda high.
I've tried to search for various pictures on the web, but all rear shots are at an angle and it's really hard to tell whether it's higher or lower than the AMG rear bumper.
Thanks for the help.

Thanks for in info.
I went to a local shop that deals with Carlsson and Brabus and was told Carlsson doesn't make a full rear bumper for CLK, just a rear lip which will require cutting of the original bumper. Plus it will only fit the non-AMG bumper, so I guess Carlsson is not an option for me anymore.

haters crazy
Carlsson did make a full bumper called the Carlsson RS. There was only a handful made.
Not the greatest pics but I realized I dont have any pics of my rear bumper (mine is a replica)
